Getting started
From invite to first payment in five steps.
Before you begin
Merchants on JoPay are always onboarded by a partner. You cannot create a merchant account on your own. Your partner will send you an invite link to get started.
Setup steps
Receive your invite
Your partner sends you a unique invite link. Open it in a browser. The invite page shows the partner name and lets you begin onboarding.
Connect your wallet
You have two options for connecting a wallet:
- Embedded wallet (Sequence WaaS) — Sign in with email or social login. JoPay creates a non-custodial embedded wallet for you automatically. This is the easiest option and enables advanced features like auto-forward and recurring billing.
- External wallet (MetaMask, etc.) — Connect an existing wallet you already control. You manage your own keys and gas fees.
Complete onboarding
Fill in your merchant profile:
- Display name — Your business name shown to customers on payment pages.
- Business type — Your business category.
- Country — Where your business operates.
Your partner may pre-configure some of these fields. Once submitted, your merchant account is active.
Create your first payment
From the dashboard, tap New Payment. Enter:
- An amount in your display currency (e.g. $10.00 USD).
- An optional description (e.g. "Coffee order").
JoPay converts the amount to USDC using the current FX rate and generates a payment link and QR code.
Share the payment link or QR code
Share the payment link with your customer via messaging, email, or by showing the QR code on screen. When the customer pays, JoPay verifies the on-chain transfer and marks the payment as verified in your dashboard.
