Get Configuration | Welcome to Afterpay Documentation

This endpoint is used to retrieve the merchant’s applicable payment limits.

A request to Create Checkout may be rejected if the order amount is not between the minimumAmount and maximumAmount (inclusive).

Afterpay merchant configuration does not change frequently. For this reason, the configuration response will include Cache-Control headers in order to minimise network round trips when using a modern HTTP client. Get configuration should be called on a fixed schedule, preferably once per day.
