Owned sub-account verification
Even if you are creating Owned sub-accounts, you may be required to verify your sub-accounts in either one or both of the following scenarios:
You are a Payment Service Provider (reseller)
This means that you onboard non-affiliated Partner accounts to Xendit and provide them with access to money-in and/or money out payment flows
Example: PoS systems, Payment Resellers
You would like to activate a payment channel that requires an additional verification for your sub-account
Some channels that require verification are Credit Cards and GCash (PH). Refer to this page for a complete list of requirements per channel.
If either of these cases apply to you, here is a guide you can follow to submit verification information for your sub-accounts.
