POST/v2/payment/bank

Send Bank Payment

Sends a bank payment to a beneficiary using a payment instrument. The beneficiary must be enabled. Note: 1. Some payments require bank authorization; status changes are sent to your webhook URL. 2. The SWIFT code from the payment instrument is verified during submission. 3. Optional header `x-idempotency-key` (max 255 chars): when provided, must be unique. A retry with an already used key is detected *before* SupportingDocument validation and returns HTTP 200 with only `ResponseData.TransactionNumber` of the original payment, without creating a second payment.

Headers

FieldTypeRequiredPossible valuesDescription
AuthorizationstringRequiredBearer {SessionToken}Session token from Get Session Token, sent as `Authorization: Bearer {SessionToken}`. Replace with the value from the `x-refresh-token` response header when present (typically within 2 minutes of expiry). Secured calls must use the same IP as the auth request.
x-idempotency-keystringOptional7b2c8f1a-4e3d-4a1b-9c0e-123456789abcOptional client-supplied idempotency key (max 255 characters). When provided, it is stored on the payment and must be unique. Reusing the same key on payment create does not create a second payment: the request short-circuits before SupportingDocument validation and returns HTTP 200 with only `ResponseData.TransactionNumber` of the original payment. Use a new key for each distinct payment; reuse the same key only when retrying the same logical request.
