Creating A New Business (With Merchant Data)

Access Endpoint URL: https://rest.everyware.com/api/Default/CreateNewMerchantAccount [POST]

You can use the CreateNewMerchantAccount method to create a new business attached to a merchant account, which in turn connects your business to the Everyware merchant ecosystem. This method requires more information from the outset, but also fast tracks your ability to take payments from customers.

It is necessary to provide the business owner's information—including a valid mailing address, email, and phone number—as the Main Business Contact when setting up a location for which a New Merchant application will be submitted. Once submitted, an Everyware Account Specialist will be in contact to complete the setup.
