Manage merchants within your workspace
Keep your workspace organized by efficiently managing merchant accounts. Learn how to update account details and deactivate inactive accounts for accurate tracking.
Getting started
Before managing merchants within your workspace, we recommend:
- If you’re a team member, make sure you have permissions to update Team members details.
Whenever changes are made to a merchant's account, they’ll receive a notification and email letting them know about the update.
Editing merchant details
Merchants are able to manage their own details within their accounts however any workspace settings like the fees, passed on from services, will be managed by you.
To update details within a merchant’s profile:
- Open Team and select Team members.
- Click on the merchant to open their profile.
- Select Actions and choose Edit.
- Update any Personal details on behalf of the merchant.
- Under Workspace, update the following areas from the menu:
- Services:
Scroll through the list of services, check the box next to each one that the merchant is qualified to perform. - Locations:
If you have multiple locations, scroll through the list, check the box next to each one where the merchant will work. - Merchant account:
Update how the merchant account is displayed within the workspace, including reports, at point of sale, and whether Payment processing fees or New client fees are passed on to the merchant. - Settings:
Update the Appointment settings and adjust the Permission level using the dropdown to select the access level the merchant has to the workspace from No access, Basic, Low, Medium and High.
- Services:
- Under Pay, update the following areas from the menu:
- Wages and timesheets:
Update the merchant's earnings by selecting an hourly rate, and if needed, include overtime calculations and rates. Use timesheets to measure hours worked and lateness, or use automated timesheets to automatically calculate wages from shifts and breaks. Learn more. - Commissions:
Update tailored commissions for the merchant to earn on services, products, memberships and gift cards. Commissions can be configured as a fixed rate or tiered based on the structure and sales period selected by you. Learn more. - Pay runs:
Choose to include the merchant within pay runs and configure a preferred payment method for them. You can also determine which fees will be deducted from their pay when completing a pay run. Learn more.
- Wages and timesheets:
- Click Save.
The merchant will be notified via email and in-app notification about the update to their merchant agreement.
Deactivating a merchant's accounts
If a merchant is no longer active, you can deactivate their merchant account. Once deactivated, they will become a standard team member.
To deactivate a merchant account:
- Open Team and select Team members.
- Click on the merchant to open their profile.
- Select Actions and choose Edit.
- Under Workspace click Merchant account.
- Use the toggle to disable the merchant account.
- Click Save.
Once the toggle has been disabled the team member will receive a notification and email letting them know that the merchant agreement has been set to inactive.
If a merchant is no longer using your workspace or is on extended leave, you can archive or delete their profile. This will prevent them from receiving bookings and remove them from your scheduling.
Deactivating a merchant is a great way to keep their profile preserved in case they return to your workspace.
Activating a merchant's accounts
If a merchant has returned, you can reactivate their account to allow them to accept bookings again.
To activate a merchant account:
- Open Team and select Team members.
- Click on the merchant to open their profile.
- Select Actions and choose Edit.
- Under Workspace click Merchant account.
- Use the toggle to enable the merchant account.
- Click Save.
The merchant will then receive a notification and email letting them know that the merchant agreement is now active.
If you would like the merchant to no longer have access to your workspace you can suspend, archive, or permanently delete them.
FAQs
No, merchants cannot change the terms of their agreements. However, they can choose to disconnect it. Once disconnected, the agreement cannot be reactivated.
