Users are entities who are entitled to the services provided by Tazapay.

Both buyer and seller details are required to initiate a transaction (checkout or escrow). This can be done by both the Create User endpoint and Tazapay Dashboard.

To retrieve an existing user account, refer to the Get User by ID or Get User by Email endpoints.

  1. For Marketplaces: All entities that participate in a transaction on your platform can be added as users. Buyers, sellers and even the marketplace entity itself can have corresponding Tazapay users.
  2. For SaaS platforms: All entities that participate in a transaction on your platform can be added as users. Service providers, buyers of services, investors, borrowers, and the platform entity itself can have corresponding Tazapay users.
  3. For eCommerce merchants (single sellers): All of your buyers that complete a checkout via Tazapay have a corresponding Tazapay user created. For your own entity, you are only required to create a user as a seller on record.
