  title: Adyen Management Create Merchant Account and Request Activation
  summary: Create a merchant account under a company then request its activation.
  description: >-
    Onboarding a new merchant account is a two-step task in the Management API:
    you create the merchant account under a company, then request activation so
    it can start processing live payments. This workflow creates the merchant
    account and, using the returned merchant id, requests activation. Every step
    spells out its request inline so the flow can be read and executed without
    opening the underlying OpenAPI description.
