Written by Jens B.

Last published at: June 15th, 2023

Before you can use the cashless payment option with your orderbird MINI, you have to fill in the agreement with our partner Worldline. After you have registered and logged in to the orderbird MINI, you will receive an email with a link. Click on it to get to the online form and enter the requested information.

The most important points at a glance:

  • Attachments
    Attach the following documents at the end of the form:
    1. Business registration (in case of GbR from all owners)
    2. Proof of bank details (with bank, account holder, IBAN and date not older than two months)
  • Sole proprietorship
    Enter your residential address under company information! (see also point 1).
  • GbR
    Enter all partners as beneficial owners (see also point 4).

Let's get started

Even as 13 steps seem to be a lot, you will be done faster than you think!

1. Your company data

Select "No" for "Do you have a commercial register number?" and enter your commercial tax number and your company data.

Email adress

Please note: You will use this email address to log in to the Worldline billing portal (reports.bambora.com) after the activation!

 
  • Activate the option "I am also the owner" to transfer your data to the fields under "Ownership" into 4. Ownership of the company.
  • Activate the option "I am also authorized to sign" to transfer your data into 10. signatory.

4. Ownership

Do not change this option but continue with the first one - "One or more people own directly or indirectly more than 25% of the company". Enter the information for all company owners who own at least 25%.

  • “% Eigentum” → percentage share in the company (100 for sole traders)
  • “Nationalität” according to ID
  • “Adresse” → private address as given in the ID, please note: if you moved recently and the new address is not shown in the registration document or ID we will need confirmation via a utility bill

For GbR add another person with min. 25% ownership by clicking on the button "Add person".

Leave the option "Eigentums- und Kontrollstruktur" at "nein" and continue.

5. Approximate turnover

The revenue data is mandatory for Worldline to comply with the requirements of the Anti-Money Laundering Act. These data are pure estimations and do not have to be 100% correct.

If you offer vouchers, click on the checkbox "The company is selling vouchers" and enter:

  • "Umsatzanteil" → percentage of your total revenue from voucher sales.
  • "Gültigkeitsdauer" → how long is the voucher valid

6. Settings & previous acquiring partner

If the "Settings" are not filled in automatically, please enter the following data:

  • “Terminalmodell” → PAX A920 (this is the terminal name of orderbird MINI)

"Vorheriger Acquiring-Partner": If you have accepted card payments before, please click on "Yes/Ja" and specify the previous acquiring partner. Otherwise continue with "No/Nein".

7. Bank details

In "Account number for payment purposes" you enter your business account. The "Account holder name" has to be the official company name, i.e. the sole proprietor or the GbR. "SWIFT/BIC" and "Bank" will be filled in automatically when you enter the IBAN. If the IBAN is not correct, it will be deleted from the field.
