Follow the steps below to start your Adyen for Platforms onboarding and integration:
- Get in touch with us
- Scope and design your implementation
- Access and set up your online dashboard
- Build your integration
- Test your integration
- Apply for your live account
- Configure your live account
Step 1: Get in touch with us
Contact us to register your interest for Adyen for Platforms. We'll help you determine whether our current marketplace capabilities are a good fit for your use case.
Step 2: Scope and design your implementation
Your Adyen contact will work with you to design your implementation. During this phase you'll determine how to:
- Onboard and collect data from your users, ensuring that your marketplace is able to collect the required information and accept document uploads.
- Implement Adyen's online payments offering, and when and how to split payments, so that you can pass on the sale amount and certain fees to your user, while booking your commission and the remaining fees to your marketplace.
- Manage transaction-level risks for your marketplace.
- Pay out to your users.
- Generate financial reports and reconcile balances for your marketplace and for your users.
Step 3: Access and set up your online dashboard
Your Adyen contact sets up your test account, and Adyen sends you admin credentials to log in to your Customer Area.
In your Customer Area, you can:
- Manage your Adyen resources, such as your company account, merchant account, account holders, and balance accounts.
- Manage all payments, payment methods, and transfers in your marketplace.
- Manage your API credentials for payments, your balance platform, and your financial products.
- Configure webhooks to get updates on changes in your marketplace.
- Generate and download reports for reconciliation.
- Manage your financial products, such as Issuing and Capital.
Step 4: Build your integration
When you have your test account and credentials, you can start building your Adyen for Platforms integration.
Refer to our integration checklist, Postman collections, GitHub repo and libraries for help with the implementation process.
Step 5: Test your integration
After you integrate with our APIs, you are responsible for testing what you built in our test environment.
We recommend that you test your integration again after you configure your live account.
Step 6: Apply for your live account
After you built and tested your integration in the test environment, you are ready to go live.
Reach out to your Adyen contact to take your account live.
Step 7: Configure your live account
The setup and configuration of your test account is not replicated to your live account. You need to replicate your test account setup in the live environment.
After you configure your account on the live environment, test your integration on the live environment as well.
Follow our go-live checklist to make sure your integration is ready.
