Questions about offline mode.

What exactly does the transaction limit amount mean? Is it the lowest transaction amount that can be charged per swipe? Or is it the most we can do in offline mode? Also if a card is declined will offline mode decline it or will we not know until we are back online?

In offline mode, there is no way to know if it is declined that is why it is an offline mode. so it is possible to take payments in offline mode then connect and have the transaction fail due to a declined card.

defalt the maximum offline transaction is $100, but you can change that to a max of $50,000.
