| Summary | 0011357: merchant should be able to opt-out / remove / pause an exchange | ||||
| Description | After I enable 2 exchanges and complete the kyc procedure there is no way that I can make the backend stop using that exchange. This can NOT be solved in the SPA since there is no way to select the exchange on the client side when creating an order. https://docs.taler.net/core/api-merchant.html#creating-orders Neither pausing the exchange usage. ################ another setup, if the exchanges doesn't require KYC then they becomes ready and unable to turn off from the merchant perspective. ----- merchant backend should have a way to "pause" an exchange (and won't be listed in the contract term) or to narrow the list on the order creation request. | ||||

Yes, you can do it, but ONLY by changing the configuration file. This is not something we intend to support per-instance. |

I found it unintuitive, one reason is that the merchant can only say "I will pay fair amount of fee" (with STEFAN) and the definition of fair depends on the exchange being used. No allowing to pause per-instance is ok then, but how much fee the merchant is willing to pay should be improved. |
