Partner

One partner: accept their application, check documents, activate, suspend, set money terms and see their account.

What this page is for

Everything about one partner: the next step in their onboarding, their terms, documents, team and money.

Who can use it

See marketplace partners to view. Approve partners and check their documents to accept, activate, change terms and open documents. Suspend and offboard partners to suspend, reactivate or offboard.

How to

  1. Applied: read the application, then select Accept and invite to the partner area. The partner gets an email invitation; you also see the link.
  2. Checking documents: open each document, then Mark checked. When the agreement is accepted and at least one document is checked, select Activate.
  3. To stop a partner selling, type a reason and select Suspend (listings go offline) or Offboard (for good). The partner sees the reason.
  4. Change the money terms under Details and terms and select Save.
