How can a group of merchants be onboard in the case of a hypermarket, like LULU?
Great question! For large group merchants like hypermarkets, we’re implementing a hierarchy-based onboarding process. First, the main or parental merchant will be onboarded and assigned a primary Merchant ID (MID). After that, they’ll have the option to add their associated branches or sister concerns under a Unit ID (UID). This setup helps streamline operations while keeping everything well-organized under one parent structure. We’re here to make the process as smooth as possible!
How will a merchant receive their Merchant ID?
When a merchant completes self-onboarding, (Coming Soon) the Merchant ID (MID) will be generated as part of the journey once the agreement is submitted. For manual onboarding, either the sales representative or account manager will collect the signed agreement along with the necessary documents and information to initiate the process from our backend team.
Are there separate agreements for merchants and resellers?
What is the difference between a merchant and a reseller?
A merchant refers to an individual or business entity that directly sells goods or services like a retail shop or restaurant.

They act as intermediaries between the platform and the merchants.
