Use Control Center to edit certain program settings, including program details, BINs and BIN range, due dates, program parameters, transaction categories, and limits. This guide notes when an update requires an API.

Program details

You can configure some program details, including currency, time zone, and country. To update any other program details, you must use the Update program endpoint.

To edit program details in Control Center:

1. From the main menu, select Configurations > Programs.
2. On the Program details screen, select Edit.
3. Make your changes to program name, currency, time zone, and/or country. You cannot change the program type or network integration here—you must the API for that.
4. Select Save.

BIN and BIN range

A Bank Identification Number (BIN) includes the first four to eight digits of a payment card. It is used to identify the card issuer and link transactions to that issuer. The BIN range specifies the beginning and ending sequence of these numbers.

To edit BIN and BIN range:

1. From the main menu, select Configurations > Programs.
2. On the Program details screen, select BIN range and then select Edit.
3. Make your changes to the BIN, start range, and end range. Note: you cannot change the card brand.
4. Select Save.

Due date

For credit programs, the due date is the day of the month by which the customer must pay the minimum amount due. This field is required for credit full balance program types.

For more information about program due dates on the Pismo platform, refer to Credit card refinancing.

Program parameters

Program parameters are configurable properties that manage how a program is set up and how it behaves. They control aspects like account creation, transaction limits, accrual calculations, and fee amounts. Depending on the parameter, you can use Control Center to enable and disable it, change its value, or both.

You cannot add program parameters through Control Center—you can only do it through the Parameters API.

For details about what program data gets inherited when you clone or import a program, refer to Cloned and imported program properties. For detailed information about program parameters on the Pismo platform, refer to Program parameters.

To edit program parameters:

1. From the main menu, select Configurations > Programs.
2. On the Program details screen, select Parameters.
3. Select the parameter you want to edit.
4. In the Parameter details modal, edit the selected parameter value.
5. To enable or disable a program parameter, select either Enable or Disable and then select Save.

Transaction categories

For credit programs, transaction categories are used to configure various accrual types at the program level. They contain fields for specifying refinancing accrual type rates, such as rates applied when the cardholder does not pay the total amount due or the minimum amount due, respectively.

You can add transaction types to existing transaction categories, but you cannot remove them.

For more information, refer to Using configurable entities.

Limits

For credit programs, define program parameters specifically related to limits. These limits apply only to credit programs.

• Maximum credit limit—Define the highest amount allowed for accounts in the program. If you lower this value, it doesn't affect existing accounts. To change those accounts, you must update each one individually.
• Minimum credit limit—Define the lowest amount allowed for accounts in the program. If you raise this value, it doesn't affect existing accounts. To change those accounts, you must update each one individually.
• Withdrawal limit percentage—Define the percentage of approved credit that an account holder can withdraw. The percentage is based on the total credit limit. If you change this value, it does not affect existing accounts. To change those accounts, you must update each one individually.
• Global program limit—Define the total amount of credit available across all accounts in this program. Global program limits aren’t applied retroactively. Only accounts created, transferred, or updated after the limit is enabled are counted. Also, if you enable a global program limit, we set the Program limit validation parameter to true.

To edit limits:

1. From the main menu, select Configurations > Programs.
2. On the Program details screen, select Limits.
3. Edit the limits you want to use. For Global program limit, you must select Enabled for it to be applied going forward.
