Credit limits

Based on the track record of both the Seller and the Buyer the specific credit limits are defined by the Sevi system.

When you reach on of these limits you will not be able to provide products on credit. Only the 'direct pay' option shows when selecting a payment option.

You will receive one of the following error messages when you or your buyer reaches a credit limit.

Seller reached max of outstanding instalments This means you have reached your max 'Order now, Pay later' limit. This is the sum of all open instalments of all your buyers combined. Once your buyers pay instalments, this will free up space and allow you to provide 'Order now, Pay later' again. By a positive track record on Sevi this limit will increase overtime.

Order amount exceeds allowed seller limit The order amount is to high. With your current track record on Sevi you are only able to sell smaller orders on credit. By a positive track record this order amount limit will increase overtime.
