Step 8: Set Up Cronjob

Here you can define your Cronjob Nonce, though one is already defined by default for you. The automatic conversion and automatic order cancelation need a defined Cronjob to function. For that you must set-up a Cronjob that calls the provided link every 5 minutes. If you aren't sure how this works, please contact your hosting provider.
