The Merchant Portal is a secure dashboard where store owners and developers manage their Pay-by-Bank integration. It is essential for setting up and managing payments.

Why Do You Need to Register?

1. App Activation – The Pay-by-Bank app requires a Merchant Account.
2. Payment Management – View transactions and track real-time payments.
3. Live Payment Setup – To activate live payments, you must submit your company details, bank account and directors / owners information.
4. Security & Compliance – Ensures that all payments comply with banking regulations.
5. Seamless Integration – The portal connects directly to Shopify, allowing smooth payment processing.

Without registering in the Merchant Portal, you won’t be able to fully activate and use the Pay-by-Bank app.

Yes, as a developer, you can create multiple accounts in the Merchant Portal to manage different stores or clients.

However, there are a few things to keep in mind:

1. Each account must be linked to a unique email address – You need a separate email for each merchant account.
2. You can register accounts on behalf of merchants – If setting up for a client, you can use your email and later transfer ownership via our support team.
3. Easily switch between accounts – If you manage multiple stores, you can log in and out to access different merchant accounts.
4. Live payment activation requires merchant details – While you can set up accounts, the store owner’s company and banking details must be submitted for live payments.

With Pay-by-Bank, payments are transferred instantly to your account. Since funds are received directly, refunds are not automated and must be handled manually by the merchant.

Steps to Process a Refund:

1. Receive a Refund Request – When a customer requests a refund, confirm the refund eligibility based on your store’s policy.
2. Collect Customer’s Bank Account Details – Ask the customer for their bank account number and relevant details to process the refund.
3. Initiate a Manual Bank Transfer – Use your banking system to send the refund amount back to the customer’s bank account.
4. Confirm with the Customer – Notify the customer once the refund has been processed and provide a transaction reference if needed.

Important Notes:
✅ Refunds are not automated and must be processed manually by the merchant.
✅ Ensure the correct bank details are provided by the customer.
✅ Refund times depend on the bank’s processing speed but usually take 1-2 business days.
✅ If you need assistance, contact Wallid support.

With Pay-by-Bank, funds are transferred in real-time, meaning they are typically available in your account within seconds after the payment is successfully processed.

Key Benefits:
✅ Instant Settlements – No waiting for payouts or batch processing.
✅ Improved Cash Flow – Funds are immediately accessible for reinvestment or expenses.
✅ No Card Processing Delays – Avoid waiting days for traditional payment settlements.
