Onboarding

As with other financial services, the first step required is for Verifone to onboard the merchant. As Verifone is acting as an acquirer for the global APM schemes and participating in the flow of funds, merchants will first have to go through a Know Your Customer (KYC)/underwriting process during which the merchant provides incorporation and business documentation.
