What is a User?

When a referrer or merchant entity is added to the platform and API, creating a User Login (User) is necessary in order for that entity to access the Portal.

...

Note on Merchant Users:
Referrer partners have the flexibility to give or restrict their clients access to the Portal. Depending on your portfolio’s specific needs, we offer a number of integration options that allow your clients to perform essential Payrix functions directly on your platform or for you to manage these aspects on their behalf.

...

Create a User Login

Step 1: From the Portal Dashboard menu, click Users (under the Management tab.)

...

  • TEAMS - Provides access to add and edit the Teams that the user is enrolled to.
    See more on how to enroll users in Teams here.

  • INVOICE SETTINGS - Allows the setup of a Token for the payment of invoices from Merchant to Referrer.

...

Parent User vs Child User

A Parent User is a user that was the first to be set up to access an entity. (Such as a Merchant. In some cases, a Referrer).

...

  • Each Child User will and must be tied to an entity (likely a merchant account).

Note

Parent User Visibility of Child Users

The Parent User of any Child user has the ability to access and view the Child user’s associated entity (merchant) because it’s hierarchy is the source of the Child user’s access to the portal.

As a result, the Parent User will have full view of the Child User’s merchant account. The Child user however is unable to view the Parent User’s view.

How to Login to view a Child User’s Portal:

Step 1: From the Portal Dashboard menu, click Merchants (under the Management tab.)

...

Step 3: You will now be redirected to the Dashboard that your Child User sees, with Full Admin Access typically being available to the Parent User to Add, Edit, View, or Change certain information.

...

Warning

Warning – DO NOT Deactivate Referrer-Level Parent Users.

Deactivating Referrer-level Parent users that are associated with the entity’s API key or are the primary parent user login will remove access from all associated Child Users to their respective entity.

Tip

Instead of Deactivating A Parent Login..

In the event that a person acting as the Parent User needs to be changed, use the steps below to repurpose the Parent User with new information and login credentials.

  1. Change the user’s email address to a new and relevant company email address.

  2. Confirm the new email address via verification email sent from the platform.

  3. Login to the Parent User using the new email address and update relevant information: Username, Password, Name etc.

What are Roles?

Roles are used to determine how much access a user has to see, edit, create, or delete information on the portal. Roles can be assigned to users to further provide or extract the access capabilities they're intended to have.

...

Info

Referrer Access Roles vs Merchant Access Roles

Within the Default Access Roles, there are Referrer and Merchant-level access roles (as shown above).

The Referrer has the unique ability to create and manage ALL merchants under a Referrer as well as manage Sub-Referrers. The Referrer also has the ability to login to view the merchant portal.

Whereas the Merchant Access Roles only allow for the management of that respective Merchant and its Sub-Merchants.

Setting Default User Roles

To set the default (primary access) roles for a new user:

Step 1: From the Portal Dashboard menu, click Users (under the Management tab.)

...

Step 3: Select the desired Default Role from the Role drop-down. Then, set the Username, Password, Full Name, and Email Address and click the ADD USER button.

...

Setting Custom User Roles

Tip

Start by following Steps 1-3 above.

...

Step 9: After selecting all desired Role Resources and Sub-Resources, click Save in the upper right-hand corner to enable and save changes in the user’s access.
