Debit a contact's account

Takes an amount off the contact's internal account and splits the scenario into two branches: there was enough money or there was not.

Settings panel of the "Debit a contact's account" blockSettings panel of the "Debit a contact's account" block

Settings

  • "Amount" — how much to take off: a number greater than zero or a template.
  • "Currency code (ISO 4217)" — the currency of the account to debit, for example RUB.

Outputs

  • "Insufficient funds" — the debit failed: the contact has no account in this currency, the account is blocked or it holds less than needed. Nothing is taken off the account.
  • "Continue" — the amount has been debited.

Good to know

  • If the "Insufficient funds" output is not connected to anything, the scenario stops there. Connect it to a block that explains to the person what to do next.
  • If the amount is zero or less, the block debits nothing and follows the "Continue" output.

For example, a person exchanges points for a gift: the block debits the points, on the "Continue" output the bot hands out the gift, and on the "Insufficient funds" output it explains how to earn more.
