Create your FlowAlp Pay account

Before you can accept payments with FlowAlp Pay you need three things: a merchant account, a verified business profile, and at least one activated payment method. This guide walks you from sign-up to your first steps in the dashboard.

Sign up#

1. Go to pay.flowalp.com and start the registration.
2. Enter your business and contact details.
3. Choose your tenant name (also called the instance). It becomes part of your personal URLs, so pick a short name that matches your business — see Instance name.

After registration your account is reachable at your own tenant URL, which you use both to sign in to the dashboard and to serve your hosted payment pages:

Tenant name:   demo-shop
Tenant URL:    https://demo-shop.pay.flowalp.com
General form:  https://<instance>.pay.flowalp.com

Account verification (KYC)#

To activate live payments, your account must be verified. This is a regulatory requirement for payment services (know your customer, KYC). Verification typically covers:

• Legal information about your business (name, legal form, registered address).
• Identity of the account holder and, where applicable, beneficial owners.
• The bank account that will receive your payouts.

While verification is running you can already explore the platform and simulate payments in test mode — see Testing for developers.

First steps in the dashboard#

1. Complete your company profile under the general settings.
2. Activate payment methods such as TWINT, cards, and wallets.
3. If you plan to integrate a shop or the API, create API credentials.
4. Make a test payment to see the full flow end to end (Test cards and scenarios).
5. Pick your integration path with Choose an integration.
