How to activate Afterpay for your Stripe Terminals

I want to activate Afterpay on my new Stripe terminal/s. Below are my details for you to process this request:

Scheme Name: Click here for instructions on how to find this information

Acquirer MID: Click here for instructions on how to find this information

 

 

Activation steps:  If you are signing up to use Afterpay for the first time (new merchant account)

If you do not already have an Afterpay merchant account you must first register for one. Sign up here: https://get.afterpay.com/app/.

After registering for an Afterpay Merchant account, look for an automated email from Afterpay with the subject line “Afterpay Card is ready for you to set up”. This email contains initial directions to complete a test transaction.

Check your junk mail folder if you can't find this email. 

You can finalise activation through one of two methods:

OPTION 1:

 Test Transaction Method: Complete the test transaction as outlined in the onboarding email you have received from Afterpay. This action automatically supplies Afterpay with the details they need to activate Afterpay on your Stripe Terminals.

OPTION 2 :

 Manual Information Submission: If you operate multiple business locations, or if you prefer not to conduct a test transaction, you must manually compile your location data.

If opting for a manual submission, gather the following metrics to provide to Afterpay (steps to gather this information can be found at the bottom of this article)

Reply directly to the automated email titled “Afterpay Card is ready for you to set up” and type in all gathered store metrics detailed in the table above. Afterpay will process this information after receiving your reply email, which will provision and activate your Stripe Terminal hardware to accept Afterpay Card mobile wallet taps.
