Step-by-step: creating a customer profile manually
- Click the Add Customer button
- Enter the customer’s Name (e.g.,

Automatic customer registration
Customers do not always need to be created manually. When checkout links or payment links are completed by new clients, the system automatically registers their email and details in the op_customers table under your brand’s merchant_id context.
Best practices
- Search for existing customer emails before manually adding a new customer profile to prevent duplicates
- Verify that customer emails are formatted correctly so invoice notifications are delivered successfully
- Do not delete customer profiles with active transactions, as it can orphan transaction history records
Customer data is encrypted in the database. Ensure that you have permissions to view customer profiles, as staff role restrictions may mask or block access to raw email and phone records.
