**Step 1: Finix Registration**

* Sign up for a Finix Live Account if you do not have one already. Their [official documentation](https://docs.finix.com/guides/getting-started/finix-sign-up) can guide you through this process. Step 2 of the linked instructions can be ignored, as you will be using our existing CheckoutChamp integration with Finix.
* Select the '**Individual Business**' option while creating your sandbox account
