Creating Subaccounts

Overview

The Subaccount API endpoint enables you to create multiple subaccount entries, each with a unique name and ID.

Purpose

The Subaccount functionality is particularly useful in the following scenarios:

• If you have multiple stores sharing a single API key
• If you are a Payment Service Provider (PSP) using a single API key for multiple Merchant stores.

By utilizing Subaccounts, you can easily track the origin of specific payments, helping with accounting and providing a comprehensive performance overview for each store/merchant.

Also worth noting is that the subaccount namerelated to the subaccountId provided on the PaymentIntent creation is displayed on the Payment Window page as well. Here's an example of a Payment Window with the subaccount name Vegetable Shop:

Retrieving Subaccount Information

The subaccount parameter is included in the response of the Read PaymentIntent API, which returns the PaymentIntent resource.
