How to initiate a payment
Different ways to initiate payments
To cater to different use cases we allow two ways to initiate payments:
Initiate a payment from an account.
This option would appeal for the use cases when the payment function is to be used in combination with importing the bank account information (like balances and transactions). Once the account is imported from the bank, the payment can be initiated from the imported account.
Note: Initiation of the SEPA Direct Debits (B2B and Core) is only possible in this way.
For the detailed flows, please refer to the following pages:
Initiate a Payment from an Account - with Web Form (Recommended Option)
Initiate a Payment from an Account - no Web Form (Licensed Customers Only)
Initiate a standalone payment
This option is more practical for use cases when the main objective is to only initiate a payment and user bank data download is not required.
Note: at the moment, we do not offer an option to initiate direct debits with the standalone payment workflow. Please refer to the Initiate a payment from an account option if you are interested in SEPA Direct Debits.
