All of the forms and sheets associated with these tasks will be sent to you by your AccelPay Onboarding Manager.

- Complete the Brand-to-Retailer Price Sheet  
  *(~10 minutes)*

- Fill out the [AccelPay Onboarding Form](https://portal.accelpay.io/onboard/brand)  
  *(~4 minutes)*
- Grant [tech@accelpay.io](mailto:tech@accelpay.io) administrator access to your website  
  *(~1 minute)*
- Create a CNAME record with your domain registrar
  
  | ***Type*** | ***Name*** | ***Value*** |
  | --- | --- | --- |
  | CNAME | accelpay | [*cname.vercel-dns.com*](http://cname.vercel-dns.com/)*.* |
  
  *(~3 minutes)*
- Decide how you’d like buttons implemented  
  Option 1. Someone on your team can use AccelPay's documentation and code to add them to your website yourselves  
  Option 2. Someone on your team can add the buttons using the CMS's tools, but make sure those buttons don't do anything at all. Once that's done, let your onboarding manager know, and they can go in and "turn on" the buttons.

- Complete the [AccelPay Merch Form](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1-DNgUsU8hld0_8krqb0QF87ZVymWoQDEh2NIRL94wJI/edit?ts=65ba809e) (if you are selling merch on your website that your brand is self-fulfilling). Let your onboarding manager know once you have submitted the form.  
  *(~2 Minutes)*
