How do I enable stand-in processing (STIP) for a transaction?

Commando Mode is a fallback measure that ensures cards funded using Gateway Just-in-Time (JIT) continue to function in the event your system fails. If your system cannot respond to the JIT Funding request, the Marqeta platform makes a decision in your place based on defined business rules.

You can enable Commando Mode as needed using the following methods:

• The Program Dashboard enables you to turn Commando Mode on and off at the card product level.
• The /commandomodes endpoint enables you to define the conditions which programmatically turn Commando Mode on or off for a given Commando Mode control set.
• The /commandomodes/transitions endpoint enables you to turn Commando Mode on and off for a program gateway funding source.

For more information, see Commando Modes in the Core API Reference and About Transactions in the Developer Guides.
