Your financial standing is the engine of your integration. The Erysta API allows you to monitor your purchasing power in real-time, ensuring that your automated procurement flows never skip a beat due to insufficient funds. This section covers how we calculate your spending capacity and how to programmatically track your transactions.

Financial Models

To support businesses of all sizes, Erysta offers two distinct financial models. By default, all new accounts operate on a Prepaid basis.

​
1. Prepaid Balance (Default)

Most partners operate by “topping up” their account. You deposit funds via the dashboard, and these funds are deducted as you place orders.
  • Spending Limit = Your current balance.
  • Top-up: Managed manually via the Erysta Dashboard or by our team.

​
2. Authorized Credit Line (On-Demand)

For high-volume partners or established businesses, Erysta can authorize a Credit Limit. This acts as a safety net or a “post-paid” facility, allowing you to continue operations even if your liquid balance is exhausted.
  • Spending Limit = Balance + Credit Limit.
  • Activation: This feature is not enabled by default. It is granted only upon manual review or specific request to our team.
If you haven’t requested a credit line, your credit_limit will always return 0. Your total purchasing power will be strictly limited to your prepaid funds.
