Add Sub-merchants
Service Partners can invite Sub-merchants using their email IDs or by sharing a referral link from the Razorpay Dashboard.
Sub-merchants are the merchants who get onboarded on the Razorpay platform by a Partner. For example, Acme wants to provide an order management solution for its client company "Gekko". In this scenario, "Gekko" is Acme's Sub-merchant.
Once onboarded, Sub-merchant accounts (Affiliate accounts) must be activated to start collecting or disbursing payments.
You can invite Sub-merchants using their email id to sign up and register on Razorpay. You can send an invite link to an individual account or multiple accounts.
Handy Tips
You can send a maximum of 1,00,000 invites/day. This could be individual invites, bulk invites or a combination of both.
You can send invites to multiple users using the Bulk Upload option. Upload an XLSX or CSV file with the Dashboard's required data. This sends a single sign up invitation link to multiple affiliate accounts in bulk. This enables your Sub-merchants to sign up and register on Razorpay.
