Initiate Merchant Activation

POST

/v2.0/crm/merchant/initiateActivation

PSP (Non-FI) only.

CAMP has two partner types: FI (licensed financial institutions) and Non-FI. For Non-FI partners, each merchant must complete a one-time email OTP activation before the merchant can use fund-out APIs (withdrawal, conversion). FI partners skip this entirely 鈥� their merchants are always active.

This endpoint initiates that activation. Call it after the merchant is created and KYC is approved (check via getMerchant), and the end-user has reviewed the authorization agreement (available via getTnc). It sends a 6-digit OTP to the merchant registered email. The masked email address and tncId are returned for use in confirmActivation. On success the merchant moves to PENDING_ACTIVATION.

OTP expires in 10 minutes. Re-initiating invalidates any previous OTP. After 5 consecutive wrong confirmActivation attempts the activation locks for 30 minutes, then automatically returns to PENDING_ACTIVATION. For an already-activated merchant, this endpoint returns 400.
