Structure
We support 3 hierarchy levels of entities using Worldline Open Banking Platform:
1. Tenant - the highest level of hierarchy:
A Tenant is typically licensed as AISP or PISP:
The AISP Tenant is authorized to retrieve account information from financial institutions - with the consent of the customer (see 2. Initiating Party or Merchant). This can be a bank or a payment institution, that offers Services according to PSD2.
The PISP Tenant is is authorized to initiate payments into or out of an consumer’s bank account - on behalf of a customer (see 2. Initiating Party or Merchant). PISPs are allowed to withdraw money directly from the customer's account, as long as the customer has given his consent.
2. Initiating Party / Merchant
- client of AISP and / or PISP
The Initiating Party is the client of a licensed AISP /PISP (see 1. Tenant) who wants to access data or initiate payments on behalf of his customers. Typically this is the role, you will have in this hierarchy.
(The Initiating Party can also be setup in the role of a Third Party Provider (TPP) as an intermediate between Merchants and ASPSPs / PISPs - the TPP and provides an interface used by the Merchant.
3. Sub Merchant
- a client of the Initiating Party
The hierarchy is used in order to setup appropriate access rights (e.g. specific geographies or sub services) and for reporting purposes.
Setup
Tenant setup is done by Worldline, while the Merchant and Sub Merchant setup can be managed by yourself via:
-
Back Office; a set of screens which can be offered white labeled
-
Merchant Subscription Management API; useful if integration with an existing CRM system is desired.
You already would like to kick off your onboarding or you might have further questions?
Please contact us to get access to the Back Office and kick off your onboarding.
Tenant Setup
Worldline sets up the Tenant on base of his requirements. Here are the main topics, which are configurable by the tenant and set up by Worldline:
- Which services are available (e.g. PIS, AIS, Ideal etc.)?
- Which User Roles should be set up?
- Which modules should be ready for use in the Back office and for which roles should the modules be available?
- Should Merchant Self-Onboarding be available?
- Which Way of Integration should be set up?
- Should API's (for Merchant- and Subscription Management) be available?
- Additional features as Content Style, Translations, GUI Languages, Input Field Configuration etc.
