Creating your payment account

Ensure to carefully review our payment terms and conditions and provide the correct details about your company. You may be required to provide further information after creating your payment services account.
After you have created your account, you may be asked to provide further details to verify your account. Verifying your account is required as the financial services providers are legally required to identify your company or organisation before being allowed to process payments and transfer funds.
Verifying your organisation
An indicator on the company information section within the payment processing will indicate if any further information are required to verify your account. These information include the industry your company operates in, the registration information such as tax registration or registered court as well as the bank account. Further you will need to provide the identification and information of all people associated with your organisation or company.
⚠️ Apply due care and attention when registering
Your provided company, organisation and personal information will be reviewed by our financial services partners in accordance with ours and their privacy regulation as well as our payment services' terms of service. We will not store your personal information, but only forward these to our partners. Depending on the location and jurisdiction of your organisation, our financial services providers may require different processing steps. Provide the most accurate and up-to-date information to ensure a smooth onboarding process.
