Cutt off time: Indicates how much time before the trip date is needed to have this payment method available.
Maximum waiting time: Indicates the time Betterez will wait for the payment to be processed. After that time the referenced payment will expire. If the calculed expiration time exceeds the trip departure, then the payment will expire in the trip departure time.
If the sale time exceeds trip departure time, then the payment will expire from that moment plus maximum waiting time.
This parameter override the default behaviour.
The image below show three differents scenarios: before the trip departure time, near trip departure time and after trip departure time.
NOTE: Negative values have not effects.
Expiration time: This value is sent to facilitate the expiry of the payment by the payment provider during the reference number creation (in case the number created for a product does not have an expiration date). If "Maximum waiting time" is 12 hours and "Expiration Time" is 10 hours, the provider will expire the payment in 10 hours and Betterez will expire it in 12 hours.
Trip departure time offset: This value apply when the sale is made near of the trip departure time and override partially maximum waiting time behaviour.
If the sale is made between trip departure minus this offset, the expiration time will be set from that moment plus the offset. This feature set a time window where the system extends the expiration time beyond the trip departure. Also, it allow made sales after trip departure.
The next image shows two sales made within of time window.
NOTE: This option only works if "Maximum waiting time" has been set. Negative values have not effects.
