For Businesses
Paisr is the easiest way for businesses in the Caribbean to accept payments from almost anywhere in the world, setup one-time and recurring billing flows, and manage financial operations at scale.
Before getting started with this guide, please setup your free Paisr account at app.paisr.tech.
What if my business isn't incorporated?
If your business is not yet registered with your local commerce office, you can still continue with the onboarding process while starting the incorporation process as soon as possible.
If your business isn't verified before you start accepting payments from customers, your payouts will be paused and funds won't settle to your wallet untill you do. We highly recommend verifying your business before billing customers to prefent disruptions.
Onboarding
To get started with using Paisr, you'll need to onboard your business and beneficial owners. This can easily be done in 10-15 minutes.
Profile Selection
When logging in to Paisr for the first time, you'll be presented with the following screen:
From here, select Business to start the onboarding process.
