## Sub-Merchant

A sub-merchant refers to a merchant registered on a marketplace platform. The marketplace can be an e-commerce platform, service platform, or other types of platforms. Sub-merchants can perform operations such as transactions, receiving payments, and withdrawals through the marketplace platform.
The registration information for sub-merchants includes merchant name, merchant ID, contact person, contact phone number, email, address, etc. The marketplace platform needs to verify the sub-merchant's registration information to ensure the sub-merchant's SafetyNet certification.

PingPong Marketplace supports two sub-merchant registration methods:
