Confirmation of Funds API

This API is suitable for providing a quick availability of funds on a specific payment account before a transaction is made.

 

The benefits of using our APIs

By using our PSD2 Confirmation of Funds API, you can retrieve confirmation on whether there are available funds in the customer's account before initiating a transaction.

The latest version of this API now includes a full consent flow.

 

Available APIs

We provide two type of APIs, a general API and country specific APIs. However, we are aiming to have just country specific APIs. For Great Britain we have country specific APIs but for the other countries you have to use the common API. For Great Britain you can, at the moment, use both types.

Sweden, Great Britain and The Netherlands: We have one Confirmation of Funds API that supports all three countries.

Great Britain: We have a country specific Confirmation of Funds API for Individual and Corporate customers in Great Britain.
