Smart Onboarding on iPOSpays
Smart Onboarding on iPOSpays allows ISOs and Agent Offices to streamline the Merchant Onboarding process by automatically extracting merchant and device details from an uploaded VAR sheet. This reduces the need to manually enter merchant, store, and device information during onboarding. This document explains how to use the Smart Onboarding feature on the iPOSpays Portal.
Steps to Onboard a Merchant Using Smart Onboarding
Step 1: Log In to the iPOSpays Portal
Log in to the iPOSpays Portal using your ISO or Agent Office credentials.
Step 2: Navigate to Add Merchant
-
From the left-hand menu, click the Merchants tab.
-
Click the Actions menu, then select Add Merchant. This will direct you to the Merchant Info tab.

Step 3: Upload VAR Sheet Using Smart Onboarding

-
The Upload Documents to Auto-Fill pop-up appears.

Click the file upload icon next to one of the following Fee profiles:

If the merchant requires a Dual MID configuration, you can use both the With Fee and Without Fee profiles. This can be performed by uploading the corresponding VAR sheets onto each Fee profile.
- The following file types are supported:
-
PDF

JPG

PNG
Maximum file size: 5 MB

- After uploading the required document(s), click Next.

Step 4: Extraction Confirmation

- The extracted details will automatically populate the relevant fields in the Merchant Info, Store Info, and Device configuration sections.
Review the extracted information and enter any missing details manually if required before proceeding to the next step.
