Set Up MoeGo Pay - Current

What to have ready and what each step asks for, so your account is verified and taking payments the same day.

Written by Marina

Use this guide if your setup begins by asking you to verify your identity.

🌟 Getting set up takes two steps:

  • Step 1: Identity verification

  • Step 2: Business verification

šŸ’” Before we dive in, ensure you have the following documents and information ready:

  • Your ID (Identity card, passport, or Driver's license) document or photo

  • Your EIN (Employer Identification Number) document

  • Your Social Security number

  • Your bank routing and account numbers — this is where your payouts will go

šŸ’” One field worth slowing down on. Your legal business name has to match your IRS documents exactly — capitalization, punctuation, and any LLC or MBR that follows it. This is the most common reason a setup gets delayed. It is not the same as the name your clients see on their statement; you'll set that separately.


Get Started with MoeGo Pay on the Desktop

Step 1: Identity verification

This initial step will need:

  • Your ID (Identity card, passport, or Driver's license) document or photo

To verify your identity, simply:

  • Go to < Card processing > on the side menu bar

  • Select < Get Started >

  • Select < Verify > to start the identity verification process

  • From there, you will be brought to a pop-up for secure identity verification and you will need to select < Agree and Continue >

  • It will ask you to use your mobile device to scan the QR code, and start scanning your ID to start your verification process.

  • Submit required documentation

  • Once successful, select < Go back to Moement, Inc >

šŸ’” You complete this step on your own device. The information you enter goes straight to verification — no one at MoeGo sees it.

Step 2: Business verification

Once you have opted to navigate back to MoeGo, you will need to complete your business verification.

This final step will need:

What happens after you submit

Most setups clear right away. If yours doesn't, it's almost always one of three things:

What's happening

How long

What you need to do

A document is being reviewed

About a day

Nothing — we'll update you

Something didn't match, usually the EIN or legal business name

Minutes, once corrected

Re-enter it exactly as it appears on your IRS document

Your EIN was issued recently and hasn't reached the IRS database yet

Three to four weeks

Nothing. This is on the IRS side. Upload your IRS letter and it will go through.

If you're not sure which one applies to you, reach out to support and we'll take a look with you.
