Introduction

Omnify Payments enables your business to accept online payments instantly without the need to create a separate Stripe account. The onboarding process is simple, secure, and fully integrated into your Omnify dashboard.
This guide covers each step of the Omnify Payments onboarding flow, from entering business details to adding your payout bank account.


Before You Begin

✔ Ensure your business is located in a supported country
✔ Have your business documents, legal details, and bank information ready
✔ Only the business owner or an authorised representative should complete the onboarding


Step-by-Step: Setting Up Omnify Payments


Step 1: Access the Omnify Dashboard

  1. Log in to your Omnify Dashboard.

  2. From the left panel, go to Payments → Omnify Payments.

  3. Click Get Started to begin your onboarding.


Step 2: About Your Business – Choose Your Business Type

You will first be asked to select the legal entity of your business.

Business type options include:

  • Individual / Sole Trader

  • Company

  • Non-profit

  • Partnership

  • Other registered entities

If you have not formally registered your business, choose Individual / Sole Trader.

Click Continue to proceed.


Step 3: Personal Details – Verify Your Identity

Stripe (our payment provider) requires identity verification for compliance and security.

You must enter:

  • Legal first and last name

  • Email

  • Date of birth

  • Home address

  • Phone number

Click Continue.


Step 4: Business Details

You will now be asked to describe your business and how you earn money.

Option A – Enter your Website

If you have a website, enter your URL where you sell or promote products or services.

Requirements:

  • The website must show your services/products

  • Cannot be under construction

  • Cannot be a generic domain (e.g., linktree)

Option B – Add a Product Description

If you don't have a website, enter a short description of your business.

Example:
"I run youth fitness classes and birthday party events. Parents purchase class packs and memberships through our studio."

This must describe:

  • What you sell

  • Whom do you sell to

  • How do you charge customers

Click Continue.


Step 5: Add an Account for Payouts

This is where your earnings will be deposited.

You will need to provide:

  • Bank account currency (e.g., USD, GBP, AUD)

  • Country of the bank account

  • Sort code / Routing number

  • Account number

  • Confirmation of account number

A legal notice will appear confirming authorisation.

Click Continue.


Step 6: Review & Submit

Before completing:

✔ Ensure all details are correct
✔ Ensure legal and bank information matches official documents
✔ Submit your onboarding for verification

Once submitted, you will be redirected to Omnify Payments, where your business will display a Pending Verification status.

Verification typically takes between a few minutes to 24 hours, depending on documentation.


After Activation

Once Omnify Payments is active, you can:

  • Accept payments for all bookings

  • Charge clients via the front desk

  • Enable Auto-Pay for subscriptions

  • Issue refunds
