Service Provider Account Types

EMA Account Requirements
Providers must create an account in EMA to offer services.

  • Businesses must create a Business Account in order to receive direct payments through the EMA platform.

  • If a service requires credentials, each employee providing the service must also create a Personal Account to submit and manage their credentials.

  • All payments are issued to the Business Account, not to individual employees.
