Paying with a standing mandate
Normally, every Wever Pay purchase needs the wallet owner's approval for that exact payment: the amount, the recipient, and the purchase, approved one at a time.
A standing mandate is that approval given in advance, inside strict limits the owner sets: only one mandate can be active at a time; it covers purchases only; each payment is capped at 0.025 USDC; all payments under the mandate together are capped at 0.10 USDC; it expires after seven days; only the owner can create or revoke one, and the owner can revoke it at any time.
Standing mandates cover Commerce Assurance purchases only. The owner creates and revokes them through the operator CLI.
Every payment made under a mandate returns a signed receipt the owner can verify.
One limit to know before relying on it: if a payment is claimed under the mandate and then fails or its outcome is uncertain, it still counts against the 0.10 USDC total, and it is not refunded automatically. Check the payment's status and its receipt before attempting it again.
