Portal
Once a merchant is live, the Merchant Portal is where they run their store on Firmly’s network day-to-day. It’s the same surface that hosted the Onboarding Wizard — the page flips from the Onboarding Wizard task menu to the post-onboarding Merchant Portal home.
What’s in the portal
/.well-known/ucp endpoint to Firmly. Per-platform setup guides plus a verification probe.
How the portal is organized
| Area | What lives there |
|---|---|
| Home | KPIs and breakdowns — the at-a-glance read |
| Orders | Order list + detail (read-only — order edits happen in the merchant’s commerce backend) |
| Catalog | Catalog scope configuration + read-only product list |
| Destinations | Per-destination toggles + performance breakdown |
| Audit Logs | Append-only event feed (role-gated — Owner / Primary Owner / Firmly admin only) |
| Settings | KYB / company info, brand identity, domains, SSO, CDN, UCP, agreement, notifications |
| Team | Team management |
| Profile | User-level profile and sessions (not merchant-scoped) |
Two states on the merchant home
The merchant home surface has two states on the same page:
- Onboarding in progress — renders the Onboarding Wizard task menu
- Live — renders the dashboard with KPIs and breakdowns
The page switches to the live dashboard automatically once onboarding is complete and Firmly has approved go-live.
Role-based access
| Role | Can do |
|---|---|
| Primary Owner | Everything, plus ownership transfer (exactly one Primary Owner per merchant) |
| Owner | Everything except ownership transfer |
| Editor | Edit settings and operational data, except the owner-only areas below |
| Viewer | Read-only |
Some features — audit logs, SSO configuration, ownership transfer, and the custom adapter editor — are restricted to Owner / Primary Owner / Firmly admin only; Editors are excluded from these. The custom adapter editor lives under Settings for merchants on a custom stack (see Credentials & API Access → Custom adapter merchants).
