Core Services are used to manage accounts, merchants and their subscriptions using PPaaS’ APIs.
Provisioning in PPaaS involves the process of creating, maintaining, updating, and deleting a merchant, label, organization, store, physical and logical devices.
In addition, PPaaS provides suitable use cases to establish links between organizations and devices, logical and physical devices, and much more. A key feature of PPaaS’ architecture is the separation of physical and ‘logical’ devices.
This creates a configuration of the device that is independent of the actual terminal itself, allowing the same configuration to be retained as devices are changed or upgraded.
This is a radically new approach to how devices are provisioned in the industry.
All the services of PPaaS are available in the form of catalogues. These are accessed through PPaaS’ APIs. PPaaS offers 2 types of catalogues:
PPaaS User Management APIs enable configure of standard user management controls.
Merchants need to subscribe to PPaaS services in order to use them. Merchants can either subscribe to packages at the time of merchant onboarding, or add/remove a package from their subscriptions later on.
Configure client subscriptions, and merchant's subscriptions
PPaaS provides a Configuration service for each of the PPaaS services. These configurations can be set up for all merchants or for only a specific merchant, store, or device.
