Transfer funds to wallet recipient

POST 

/profile/transfers

Introduction

A transfer is the movement of funds between two wallet accounts. It allows peer to peer transfer to another wallet user. Transfer requires the following parameters:

  • amount - the amount in minor units
  • currencyCode - currency of the amount
  • email or customerId of the recipient
  • deviceInfo - device profiling information

For successful transfer the following conditions must be met:

  • Customer should have enough balance in the requested currency
  • Recipient customer must exist in the system and must not be restricted

Transfer Execution

Transfer is created in PREVIEW state, which can be used to determine the recipient and FX amount (if applicable).

To move forward the execution you should usе the POST /profile/transfers/{transferId}/status to prepare the transfer for execution.

{
"status": "PENDING"
}

This will create a PENDING transaction and associate it with the transfer. All limits and other checks will be performed.

To confirm the transfer for execution POST /profile/transfers/{transferId}/status:

{
"status": "PROCESSING"
}

The transfers are executed asynchronously. Check the transfer status for details.

Using transfers for local currency exchange

If customer want to exchange currency between his accounts, he must provide FX Quote parameter and skip the recipient parameter.

The following conditions must be met:

  • have account in the targetCurrency of the FX Quote
  • enough balance in the sourceCurrency

Merchant Fee collection

(In Development)

A fee can be collected by the merchant for the transfer. Fees are collected in preconfigured merchant fee collection account in the corresponding fee currency. Sender will be charged with fees. SENDER_FEE fee payment reason will be used
