Top-up a wallet

There are 3 ways funds can be added to a customer’s wallet:
  1. You can either top-up through Hyperline yourself (after discussing with your customer and agreeing on an amount)
  2. Customers can also top-up their account themselves through their customer portal
  3. The wallet can be topped-up through the API
Paid top-up are funds your customer pays for, acting as a prepayment. Free top-up are an offer you are making to the customer (the funds will be added for free).
Paid top-up generate a confirmation receipt. The related PDF is send by email to the customer.

You can make your customers autonomous by offering them to top-up through their portal.

​
Wallet debit

Customers wallets are automatically debited when the feature is enabled (wallet settings configured) and if there is money on it. They are used to pay subscriptions, related invoices and one-time payments. A wallet cannot have a negative balance. We make sure to take the maximum amount of money from wallets when paying invoices, but the potential remaining part to pay will be processed with the default customer payment method (the one saved). An invoice can have multiple debit methods, e.g. wallet + credit card, and this will be displayed on the final generated PDF invoice.

​
Wallet balance & projection

Wallet balance are computed in real time in Hyperline. In addition to the wallet balance, we also compute and return a projected balance. This balance take into account a projection of the future remaining money on the wallet after paying what will be due in the current period (subscription, usage). This is particularly useful for a pay-as-you-go use case when you want to restrain access to your product if the customer doesn’t have enough funds on their wallet.
