+Register merchants for local currencies (experimental)
+------------------------------------------------------
+
+This feature allows to register merchants to participate
+in a local currency circuit. After having installed the
+Sandbox with the steps described above, the administrator
+can now register new merchant accounts with the following
+command. The main difference with ordinary registrations
+is that this API offers to associate a `cash-out` address
+to the account, so that merchants can convert the local
+currency back to their fiat bank account.
+
+.. note::
+ Disable ordinary registrations as described in the previous section,
+ to make sure that only the administrator can add new accounts.
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ $ export LIBEUFIN_SANDBOX_USERNAME=admin
+ $ export LIBEUFIN_SANDBOX_PASSWORD=$password
+ $ export LIBEUFIN_NEW_CIRCUIT_ACCOUNT_PASSWORD=$circuit-account-password
+ $ libeufin-cli sandbox demobank circuit-register \
+ --username=example-shop \
+ --email=example-shop@example.com \
+ --cashout-address=payto://iban/EXAMPLESHOP-FIAT-IBAN \
+ --name="Example Shop"
+
+
+If the command exited successfully, the new user should be
+able to login with the ``$circuit-account-username`` and
+``$circuit-account-password`` credentials. Run ``libeufin-cli sandbox demobank circuit-register --help``, for additional information about the other options.
