Allowance is a permission to make payments without asking the user herself.
It allows to make small payments from wallet very quickly and smoothly, after she
has confirmed client-initiated allowance or created one by herself.
Įspėjimas
Creating an allowance does not guarantee that payment will be successfuly made without user intervention.
For example, there may be insufficient account balance in that wallet.
Svarbu
Only one allowance can be active for a wallet at a time. If client creates new one and it gets confirmed,
the active one will get canceled.
Create allowance
This method creates allowance in Paysera system. After creating allowance, user should be redirected to confirmation page or allowance should be confirmed in other ways. Informacija
Creating a new allowance does not affect the active one - it is canceled only when (if) the new one is confirmed
Įspėjimas
Allowances with status
new
are deleted automatically 1 month after creation time.

Informacija
Each limit narrows the possible charging time and amount. If you create limit
1 Euro / 60 s there is no point adding 60 Euros / 3600 s,
because first one is narrower than the second one.
Įspėjimas
Maximum price of one payment can be no bigger than the
limit
's max_price
in smallest
time
.
If you create limit 1 Euro / 1 h, price of payment cannot be bigger than 1 Euro, otherwise
it would exceed the limit (no matter what are the other limits in that allowance). This does not mean that
you cannot have payments with bigger prices - you just have ask user to confirm the payment.

3 Euros each week for 5 weeks.

15.00 Euros using this allowance neither at once in single payment, nor at different payments using smaller amounts.
