Finix's Core platform is categorized by a hierarchy. This hierarchy is broken up into four resources: Platform, Application, Identity, and Merchant. Each resource represents a particular function in the platform. 

Platform 

The platform consists of multiple resources that allow for underwriting, transactions, and payouts. 

Application 

The application resource logically groups related merchants. This group can represent a web application, such as a marketplace, ISV and or SaaS platform. Each application defines the processors available to their merchants. Each application can have its own fee profile. 

Identity 

The identity resource can represent either a merchant or a buyer. 

Merchant 

The merchant resource represents the merchant account.
