  • They accepted a deal with a Pickup charge value of 44,000 USD

  • They have an Insufficient Wallet Balance/Credit limit to pay by wallet

  • The Use Wallet to Proceed option is deactivated because the available Wallet balance and Credit limit to spend is less than the leasing deal's total value.

    • The company will have the option to complete payment via Credit card or a Bank Transfer

  • They can choose to pay via Credit Card

      • The deal will be instantly confirmed

      • But there will be an extra 3% third-party processing fee.
