Virtual Terminal User Management

Control access across merchants, teams, and payment workflows. Paygasus’ user and role management protects transactions, reporting, and administrative settings with structured permissions.

Activate User and Role Controls

User and role management defines access to payment functions and data based on role and organizational structure, standardizing permissions across multi-merchant environments for internal oversight and compliance.

EDUCATIONAL INSIGHT

Role-based access control (RBAC) reduces risk by limiting sensitive actions to approved roles. Clear role definitions also simplify onboarding by establishing consistent access for common responsibilities.

  • Role-based access control (RBAC) for payment operations.
  • Granular permissions for transactions, reporting, settings, and users.
  • Configurable access for PayFac and multi-merchant environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

User and role management controls access to payment functions and data by assigning permissions to users based on job responsibilities and organizational structure.

Merchant access controls define which merchants, locations, or accounts a user can view and manage, plus what actions are allowed within each scope.

Role-based access control (RBAC) is a security model that assigns permissions to roles, then assigns roles to users to standardize access and reduce risk.

A merchant hierarchy is a parent-child structure used to organize multiple merchants, sub-merchants, or locations so access and reporting can be managed consistently across entities.

RBAC for payments applies role-based permissions to payment workflows such as transaction processing, refunds, reporting, configuration, and user administration to protect sensitive actions and data.
