Learn about the different types of accounts you can create on xenPlatform

The first step to using xenPlatform is to create accounts that are linked to your business. The balance and transactions of these accounts are recorded separately from your Platform. This separation allows you to easily keep track of payments that you facilitate for the Partners that you work with.

There are 2 types of accounts that are available:

1. Owned accounts - accounts that are invisible to your Partners and fully controlled by you
2. Managed accounts - Partners get a full Xendit account that you can transact on behalf of

These 2 accounts types are designed for different use cases. Here are the differences and suggested use cases below:
