The new season ticket will be paid using the same method as for the previous season. The following payment methods are supported:

  • Direct debit with our partner Slimpay: new payments reuse bank details, the Unique Mandate Reference (UMR) and the number of instalments for the initial payment. Due dates and amounts are calculated based on how the payment method is parametrised.
  • Payment by credit card instalment: the credit card information must be available via an alias. The number of instalments is taken from the initial payment. Due dates and amounts are calculated based on how the payment method is parametrised.

The renewal feature allows you to select:

  • A set of available shipping methodsshipment modes 
  • A fallback shipping methodshipment mode 

To specify the shipping methodshipment mode, proceed as follows:

  • Reuse the shipping method shipment mode from the previous season if it is defined in the available shipping methods shipment modes list.
  • If this shipping method shipment mode has not been defined in the list, select the new method mode suggested in the list (see examples below)
  • If you're unable to identify a previous shipping method shipment mode or if several are possible (for example, because duplicates were issued when a season-ticket card was lost), use the fallback methodmode

Example of possible shipment method mode changes:

  • The season ticket for the previous season was printed and sent on a new card. The new season ticket is loaded on the existing card.
  • The season ticket for the new season is designed for home printing of individual tickets (whereas the one for the previous season was loaded on a card).

...

Automatic season-ticket payment may not be possible if there is no alias available or no fallback shipment method mode has been defined. In the batch execution parameters you can choose one of the following courses of action:

  • Don't create an order at all (no sale, no reservation)
  • Create a reservation
