V2 Preview — This endpoint is part of the V2 API preview. Breaking changes may occur.

​
Overview

Create a new vendor portal signup request. The account is created in a pending state (approved: false) and requires manual merchant approval before the vendor can log in. This endpoint is public (no authentication required) and accepts legacy compatibility aliases (shopId, email_address) for backwards compatibility with older clients.

​
Use Cases

  • Self-service onboarding — Vendors submit a signup request from the vendor portal landing page
  • Multi-shop installations — Vendors specify shopDomain to target a specific merchant
  • Honeypot protection — emailAddress / email_address fields trap automated bots

​
