General Notes

Purpose

The FMB allows you to create new customers/accounts, new merchants and new paytypes in Paygate. All entities can be created at once or step by step. Data edit and deletion functions are planned but not completed yet, therefore please closely review your content before submitting. You can add contacts to an existing account, you can add additional merchants and you can add additional paytypes. You can send the data via file transfer (sFTP) or https. In the response (file) you will receive all relevant data back, which have been added or created.
