If the ownership of the Modular Merchant account is being transferred, there are some steps to take to ensure a smooth transition.
Create admin accounts for the new owner(s)
Every user that logs into the administration area of the Modular Merchant account is REQUIRED to have a unique admin account and password. To create a new admin account:
1. Log into the administration area as a super admin.
2. Go to Admin > Add an Admin Account.
3. Complete the following required sections:
Login*
Password*
Email Address*
Security Question*
Security Answer*
The Security Question and Answer may be used by Modular Merchant tech support to confirm the admins' identities during tech support phone calls.
4. Use the Permission Levels section, as needed, to remove the ability of the admin to access certain areas of the administration area.
5. Click Save Changes.
6. Repeat steps 2 - 5 for every admin that will log into the account.
tip When an admin logs into the administration area and creates a new support ticket, the email account associated with the admin account will automatically receive email notifications whenever Modular Merchant tech support updates the support ticket.
