Sending a new connection request
To be able to send a connection request both businesses need to be connected and signed up to the Alvio Platform.
To send a new connection request you will need the Alvio Partner ID of the merchant you would like to connect with which is available from theirs or your Alvio Dashboard once T&C's have been accepted.
