How to access
Files are configured separately for each site reference you have access to.
Select your site from the “Sites” page and click the “File manager” icon.
The File manager
The File manager page allows you to upload files to your site reference(s). We use these files to customise the appearance and behaviour of your Payment Pages and/or emails we send on your behalf.
Using this page, you can view any files that have already been uploaded to your site reference(s), upload more files and delete existing ones:
You can upload a maximum of 1000 files per site reference. All files together must not exceed a total size of 5MB.
Selecting a site reference
Files are assigned to one of your site references. To change the site reference you are working with, use the drop-down at the top of the page:
Uploading a file
Drag and drop the files into the upload panel, or alternatively, click this area to select the files for upload manually. Uploading starts immediately.

It may take a few minutes for a file to be uploaded or deleted. Therefore your changes may not appear under the files tab immediately.
