Moov accounts
When you sign up for the Moov Dashboard, we will create an account for you. Your account is different from other Moov accounts. Your account:
- Facilitates money movement
- Is hidden in your list of accounts
- Can be used as a source or destination in a transfer
- Can be updated through the settings page in the Dashboard
When interacting with transfers via Moov.js or any client-side integration, you must specify your accountID for the following scopes:
/accounts/{accountID}/transfers.write/accounts/{accountID}/transfers.read
After your account has been created, you can then create individual or business accounts for each of your users. Every account requires a profile with information describing the legal entity associated with it, including information for verification and underwriting purposes. Additionally, every account requesting capabilities to process payments must agree to Moov's platform terms of service agreement.
To create merchant accounts with payment processing abilities, use one of the following:
Bank accounts, payment cards, and transfer activity are all associated with singular Moov accounts and can be monitored on your platform. For example, if someone changes their linked bank account, all past activity remains associated with their Moov account.
