Create a Merchant Account

Your merchant account is your business account in KartaPay — it groups your payment providers, API keys, and webhooks. Create one from the dashboard, using the link for your environment:

Environment	URL
Production	https://dashboard.kartapay.me
Staging	https://dashboard-staging.kartapay.me

tip

Start with the staging dashboard to test your integration without handling real payments. You'll create a separate production account before going live — see the going live checklist.

:::tip Next step Once your account is created and you're logged in, connect a payment provider to link the providers your customers will use. :::
