About this Guide

This guide supplements the Quick Checkout or Wallet Checkout integration guide (as appropriate) and describes how to use the Skrill Automated Payments Interface (API) and Skrill Merchant Query Interface (MQI), which provide alternative means of connecting to the Skrill Payment Gateway and can be used to automate transaction requests such as transferring money to another Skrill account (used for mass payment), queries and refunds(where available - this feature is not supported for all merchant types).

The guide covers the different transaction request options and describes how to implement them.

You will need a working knowledge of HTTP(S) Requests and XML and an understanding of how to send and receive information using these protocols
