Your users' legal entity type and operating country determine the required verification information you need to collect from your users. You must build your own UI to collect this information and submit it to Adyen using our APIs. After Adyen receives the information, the verification process starts automatically.
API-only onboarding
With API-only onboarding, you need to build your own UI where you collect data from your users. You then need to submit the collected data to Adyen by making requests to the Legal Entity Management API and the Configuration API. You can onboard users operating in any of the countries and regions where business accounts are supported.
Onboarding steps
After you complete all the steps in the integration checklist for your platform or marketplace integration, you must provide additional verification information so that your users can use business accounts.
If you are creating a new account holder for which you want to request business accounts, you must first follow the onboarding steps for your platform or marketplace integration. In addition, you can use API-only onboarding to provide us with the additional information required for business accounts.
If you already have an existing, verified account holder, and want to request business accounts for them, you only need to provide the additional information required for business accounts using API-only onboarding.
