Maker-Checker via API

Merchants can now access Maker-Checker functionality directly through the API, once enabled by the Finmo operations team. All API-initiated payouts are flagged as Maker-created payouts, requiring Admin approval to proceed, ensuring full compliance with Maker-Checker protocols.

No action is needed from the merchant side to enable Maker-Checker functionality via API.

Creating a Payout via API

Any payout initiated through the API will be categorized as a Maker-created transaction.

Approving Payout Requests by Admin

The process for Admin approval of API-generated payouts follows the same Maker-Checker flow used on the Dashboard, ensuring a consistent and secure experience across all platforms.

When a local payout request is created via API, the Checker is notified immediately. To approve the request, the Checker must access the dashboard.
