Note: As of June 2022, Braintree is no longer supported as a payment gateway in Australian Marketplaces. If you already used Braintree before this, this procedure still applies.
To find your merchant ID:
- Log into either the production Control Panel or the sandbox Control Panel, depending on which environment you are working in
- Click on the gear icon in the top right corner
- Click Business from the drop-down menu
You'll find your merchant ID at the top of this page.
Your merchant ID can also be found when logged into your Control Panel, as the string of letters and numbers following /merchants/ in the URL.
Merchant Account ID
Your Merchant Account ID, is not the same as your Merchant ID.
A single Braintree gateway can have multiple merchant accounts to process transactions for different businesses or currencies. Each merchant account within a gateway can be identified by its unique merchant account ID.
You can use this ID to specify a merchant account when creating a transaction. If you have a single merchant account, it is not necessary to specify a merchant account ID in your API requests. If you have multiple merchant accounts and choose not to specify the merchant account ID, all requests will process through your default merchant account.
Even if you only have one merchant account in your gateway, certain shopping cart integrations may require you to provide your merchant account ID.
To find your merchant account ID(s):
- Log into either the production Control Panel or the sandbox Control Panel, depending on which environment you are working in
- Click on the gear icon in the top right corner
- Click Business from the drop-down menu
- Scroll to the Merchant Accounts section
From here you'll see the merchant account IDs in the first column for each account.
