Merchant Accounts
Where all the merchant’s accounts connected to the source are listed and managed. Each merchant account represents the link between a merchant and a specific Source (such as a bank or wallet). This connection allows the merchant to initiate payouts through Ottu.
Think of a merchant account as the merchant’s profile inside Ottu that defines which source is used for payouts.
