Managed Merchants Guide

Managed Merchants allow your system to create other Pinch merchants under your own account and control them completely using your single set of API credentials.

To get a new account up and running you'll need to do the following:

• Use the Create Managed Merchant endpoint with the new business' details.
• Save the created Merchant Id

Once the Merchant Id is saved it can then be used to call the Pinch API on their behalf using your existing API credentials with the "Current-Merchant" header added with the Merchant ID of the Merchant you want to call the API on behalf of.

Example Header: Current-Merchant: mch_1234567689
