Make Railbed your own

Put your business name, logo and support details on checkout, and keep your account settings accurate.

On this page

Business details buyers recognize

Open Settings. The Business section controls the identity customers see on Railbed payment pages.

SettingWhere it is used
Business nameIdentifies your business on buyer-facing checkout
LogoAppears on checkouts, payment links and tracking pages
Support emailGives buyers a way to contact your business about their order
Checkout brand colorApplies your selected accent across your business's checkouts and buy buttons
Profile photoIdentifies your signed-in user in the dashboard

Use a support email you monitor. This is your business's support address, not a setting that makes Railbed send receipts or payment-link emails.

Save text and color changes

  1. Change your business name, support email or brand color.
  2. Review the You have unsaved changes bar.
  3. Choose Save settings, or Discard to return to the saved values.
  4. Open a buyer checkout to confirm the saved appearance.

Settings are shared across Test and Live mode. A brand or wallet change made while viewing Test mode is still a real change to the business settings.

Upload a logo or profile photo

Use the image control, choose your image, and adjust the crop. The app re-encodes the cropped image before upload. The image saves as soon as you finish cropping it; you do not need to press Save settings afterwards.

Choose a simple, legible logo that still works at small sizes. Use a supported raster image such as PNG, JPEG or WebP. SVG uploads are not accepted. If an image is rejected, follow the uploader's message and try an ordinary raster export.

The business logo and profile photo are separate. Changing your profile photo does not replace the logo customers see.

Set an individual checkout's appearance

Open Checkouts → your checkout → Edit. The Checkout theme chooses Light or Dark for that checkout. The editor's brand color control changes the merchant brand color, rather than creating a separate color for that one page.

For checkout pages and widgets, Button text changes the payment button inside the checkout. For a buy button embedded on your website, set its label under Share → Add it to your site or in the label attribute of its snippet.

Save the checkout, then inspect its actual buyer page and any embed using it. The editor preview is useful for composition, but the buyer page shows the full flow.

Choose Light, Dark or Match system

Open Settings → Appearance and choose a theme:

ChoiceWhat happens
LightUses Railbed's paper background and dark text; the default
DarkUses charcoal surfaces and light text throughout the dashboard
Match systemFollows this device's appearance preference, including changes made while Railbed is open

The choice applies immediately, without Save settings. It is saved in this browser. Other dashboard tabs in the same browser follow the change; another browser or device can have its own preference. If your browser blocks storage, the choice lasts for the current page and the app explains that it cannot save it.

Dashboard appearance does not change your customer's checkout, payment link or tracking page. A checkout's own Checkout theme remains the buyer-facing setting. Logos and checkout previews keep the backgrounds they need to remain readable.

These docs also offer Light, Dark and Match system in the theme selector beside the collection links. The docs site remembers its own choice separately from the dashboard. Code windows remain dark in both reading themes, and the visual examples follow the docs palette while keeping every status readable.

Keep the payout address accurate

The Payout wallet section shows your Polygon address and your Railbed fee. Changing the wallet requires confirmation of the full new address. Payments already in progress still use their saved wallet.

Read Wallet and settlement before making a wallet change. Never paste a seed phrase or private key into the address field.

Account access

Railbed uses its sign-in flow to verify your identity. Follow the email or social sign-in prompts shown when you log in. If access fails, see Troubleshooting.

A merchant account currently has one user. Team invitations and member roles are not available. Use a tracking link when someone only needs to see the status of a particular payment request.
