Trade Account API v3 - Preview (3.0)

Download OpenAPI specification:Download

**This API is currently in preview.**

This API allows you to onboard your business customers to your own product and to the Two "Buy Now Pay Later" product.

Specifically:

  • Enable 1-click checkout with Two
  • Approve additional users to place orders on behalf of your business customers
  • Access insights and enriched data on your business customers

Authentication & IDs

Trade Account API v3 supports flexible identification of resources, allowing you to use either your own internal identifiers or our system-generated identifiers in path segments.

How it works:

When you provide an ID in a path parameter (e.g., in /customer/), our system attempts to resolve it:

If the ID begins with two_: We interpret this as an identifier generated by our system. You would typically use this when referencing resources that you've previously created or retrieved from our API.

Example: GET /trade-account/v3/customer/two_XYZ789 If the ID does NOT begin with two_: We interpret this as your own internal identifier for the resource. This allows you to integrate seamlessly with your existing data structures.

Example: GET /trade-account/v3/customer/yourInternalID123

Collision Avoidance:

To ensure unambiguous resolution, it is CRITICAL that any customer or entity identifiers you use and pass directly to our API (i.e., those without the two_ prefix) DO NOT begin with the string two_. This prefix is strictly reserved for identifiers originating from our platform. Please ensure your internal ID generation logic adheres to this constraint.

Getting Started

Step 1: Create a B2B trade account customer

  • Create a new trade account customer using the POST /trade-account/v3/customer endpoint.

Step 2: Create users for your trade account customers.

  • The employees who place orders on behalf of your trade account customer (their employer), can be set up for purchasing through POST /trade_account/v3/customer/<cid>/user.

  • Upon successfully creating a user for a customer, onboarding is completed. To verify the user generate the verification link using POST /trade_account/v3/user/<uid>/verification/url. Verification of the customer user will allow one-click purchases for the customer user.

Note: Two reserves the right to add extra verification steps for certain orders.
