Key Characteristics

  • The end customer has their own account on Tazapay
  • Funds flow do not impact your platform’s balance, it directly impacts the customer’s balance
  • Your platform acts as an orchestrator, not a funds holder

When This Model Is Typically Used

  • You do not want to be in the flow of funds
  • You want clear separation of balances
  • Regulatory or licensing constraints require this

Operationally, How This Works

  • Your platform can initiate payouts for the sub-account using the dashboard or API
  • The sub-account remains the economic owner and beneficiary of funds
  • Compliance, reporting, and settlement are tied directly to the sub-account
  • Tazapay treats the sub-account as the primary party for regulatory purposes

Onboarding and Approval

  • Each sub-account undergoes a full onboarding flow
  • Only businesses can be onboarded as sub-accounts. This link contains the onboarding requirements.
  • Sub-accounts are subject to Tazapay approval before becoming active
Once approved, the sub-account operates independently for collections and payouts.
