Your settlement and operations accounts
In shortPartners get two sets of account details: settlement, where your users’ money arrives, and operations, for your own. Keeping them apart is the point.
A platform partner is issued two sets of account details rather than one, and they do different jobs.
| Account | What lands there |
|---|---|
| Settlement | Money paid in by your users |
| Operations | Your company’s own funds |
They work exactly like any other account details for sending and receiving. The difference is what you route into each.
Keep them separate. Your users’ money arriving in the same place as your company’s own money is the thing this split exists to prevent, and it is far easier to keep apart from the start than to unpick later.
Depending on where your business is registered, more account details may be available to you. Ask us and we will tell you what your location supports.
