Create a merchant
Registers a business you sell on behalf of. Invoices and receipts issued for a merchant carry its name and logo, while your legal entity stays the seller of record and keeps the contract, the payment and the tax liability. A merchant is display identity only: it has no tax or legal configuration of its own.
