Overview
Buyers represent the businesses who use financial services offered by the Payment Run Plug-in within your application. When using the Payment Run Plug-in a buyer can create a payment run, and send payments to their suppliers.
Due diligence
You need to onboard your customers onto Weavr before they can use any financial services.
Weavr lets you embed an identity verification process referred to as Know Your Business (KYB) for buyers. This process lets you seamlessly and securely verify your customer’s identity and all you need on your end is just a few lines of code. Weavr will ask your users to submit the necessary information and documentation so that they can get approved by our financial providers.
Due to financial regulations, every financial provider must perform due diligence on all buyers onboarded as customers.
Supported countries
The Payment Run Plug-in is currently available for UK customers, i.e. End Customers in your application will be able to fund payment runs and make domestic payments in GBP only. Support for EUR in EEA domestic payments is coming soon. Cross-border payments are not supported at this time.
Directors and UBOs of buyers registered in the above countries, may be of any nationality and can reside anywhere in the world.
Authorised users
Weavr supports 2 types of authorised users:
- Admin user is the individual who is creating the buyer identity. The admin user needs to be a legal representative of the buyer such as a director or a representative who has the power of attorney over the company.
- Authorised user is an individual with specific roles that has been invited by the admin user to manage the identity's Payment Runs.
Every buyer must always have one admin user, and optionally can have an unlimited number of authorised users.
