Merchant Organization
The Merchant Portal hierarchy consists of an Organization which has a Merchant or multiple Merchants. An Organization may have multiple Merchants if there is a single Master Service Agreement but multiple Web Service Accounts (WSA) are required or there are other business requirements that would drive this need.
If the same Web Service Account can be used but the Merchant wants to divide their XiPay Users by business groups/divisions, then only one Merchant is needed in the Portal and the groupings can be achieved by using Subdivisions.
