Wallets

The Wallets are the "accounts" to which the points have to be connected to. They work very similar to bank accounts, or real life wallets.

Here you decide how the MicroPayments Wallets will work on your page.

  • Assign a single wallet to each customer - If this option is enabled a single Wallet will be tied to each of your WordPress user accounts. Users won't need to remember their wallet names as long as they're logged in.
  • Note: This setting must be on for the Transfer Shortcode to display a dropdown menu with the accounts. Learn more.
  • Wallets quantity limit - You can set any number of wallets to each customer. To change this value, Assign a wallet to each customer has to be disabled.
  • Disable anonymous payments - If enabled, users will have to input a wallet ID when making purchases
  • Hide 'create wallet' button after wallet has been generated - This is option related to the [create_wallet_button] shortcode. You can read about it in Shortcodes section of the documentation.
  • Number of transactions in My Wallet - This is the number of the last transactions which will be displayed using the [cm_wallet_history] shortcode.
  • Initial points amount in the wallet - This is the amount of points each newly created wallet will contain (a great way to give a welcome bonus for new users).
  • Allow to charge inactive wallets - With this option users won't be allowed to charge their wallets once they are deactivated.
  • Transaction fee for adding points - Every time a user receives points, they will be charged this amount. This deduction will be shown in the log. Example: buying points, receiving a transfer. The field accepts both flat amounts and percentages. The default value is 0. Examples:
    • 5
    • 15%
  • Transaction fee for subtracting points - Every time a user loses points, they will be charged this amount. This deduction will be shown in the log. Example: sending a transfer. The field accepts both flat amounts and percentages. The default value is 0. Examples:
    • 5
    • 15%
  • Allow decimals? (e.g. 2.34 points) - Supports decimals and centesimals for wallet operations. Milesimals and lower units will be disregarded - for example, 1.2399 = 1.23.
  • When points are shown, round decimals to - Rounds points every time the points are shown. Only works if you enable decimals. Choose between:
    • Highest integer (e.g. 1.5 will become 2)
    • Lowest integer (e.g. 1.5 will become 1)
