Vendor: Individual\nThis example shows a Create Vendor request with all the information to fully board an individual vendor. To see the required information for payout, click [here](/docs/vendor-verification-requirements). \n\n###Create Vendor: Business\nThis example shows a Create Vendor request with all the information to fully board a business vendor. To see the required information for payout, click [here](/docs/vendor-verification-requirements). \n\n###Create Vendor: with 2 bank accounts\nThis example shows a Create Vendor request for an individual vendor with 2 bank accounts. The vendor's bank account details are included within separate `payout-info` containers (1 bank account per container). In this particular example, the vendor will be paid out in USD (via ACH) and EUR (via SEPA). Their default payout currency is USD. \n\nThe following conversion logic will apply: \n* Since the vendor's payout currencies are USD and EUR, if a sale occurs in either of these currencies, the sales funds will be paid out to the associated bank account. \n* Since the vendor's default payout currency is USD, if a sale occurs in a currency other than USD or EUR, the sales funds will be converted to USD and paid out to the associated bank account. \n\n<br>\n<a class=\"btn btn-primary\" href=\"#\" role=\"button\">Back to Top</a>\n\n##API Explorer\nTo test out a call, enter the request content below and then click **Try it!**\n\n**Tip**: Use the XML code below as a starting point.
