Activation and payout
For the Riverty pay-later payment option, you need an account. Without this account, we cannot process transactions for you. Please contact Riverty via 020-7230230.
Important: we can only activate your account once our support desk has received the connection email from Riverty. Our goal is to complete the onboarding of Riverty accounts within 5 working days. If errors occur during testing, onboarding may take longer.
Once our support desk has received the connection email, they set up the connection and ensure a successful test transaction. After that, we hand over the implementation to Riverty's Support Desk. Together with you, they ensure that transactions from your platform are initiated in accordance with Riverty's terms.
Note! If you have a new webshop, or if you have created a new sales location for an existing webshop, please contact support@pay.nl. We then need to migrate the Riverty connection details to the new sales location. Only after this migration will Riverty be available again in your webshop implementation.
Switching to PAY.
The process of switching from another payment service provider to PAY. is as follows:
- The merchant submits a request to Riverty (via support@riverty.com) to switch to PAY.
- For the switch, PAY. will have the merchant sign a new contract
- Riverty will then create a new contract and also have it signed by the merchant
- Once you have signed and sent the contract, PAY.'s implementation team will create a new account and share the necessary details with the merchant
- The old account will remain active for a number of months due to potential refunds
- The account is closed after a final payout has taken place
Delayed Capturing (Riverty)
If a transaction is accepted by Riverty's credit check, its status changes to PAID. This is because PAY. sets the capturing setting for every new connection via PAY. to "Immediately after the credit check" by default. If you don't want to capture automatically and you have a Premium package, please contact PAY.'s support desk.
If you use a Professional package or higher, the following settings are available:
- Immediately (after the credit check)
This is a default setting for both Pioneer and Premium packages.
- Via a separate action (API or Admin)
-
Note:If a transaction is accepted by Riverty's credit check, its status changes to AUTHORIZE. You must capture or void (cancel) transactions yourself, manually or via our API. If you don't capture it, the authorization automatically expires after 14 days. If you want to deliver with a delay while ensuring the transaction is captured, request a change to one of the settings below.
- Automatically after 1 day
- Automatically after 2 days
- Automatically after 3 days
- Automatically after 4 days
- Automatically after 5 days
- Automatically after 6 days
- Automatically after 7 days
- Automatically after 8 days
- Automatically after 9 days
- Automatically after 10 days
- Automatically after 11 days
- Automatically after 12 days
- Automatically after 13 days
Note! you cannot change the above settings yourself in PAY.'s Admin Panel. We manage these settings for you. If you have a Premium package and want to use a different capturing setting, please contact PAY.'s support desk.
