Create Payout

Creates a new payout to a beneficiary. With development and support from SWIFT and local payment rails, you can make faster and more cost-effective international payments to your overseas corporate accounts, suppliers, and employees.

This API supports multiple payment modes, including standard payouts and Payment-On-Behalf-Of (POBO), enabling flexible and efficient fund management. Additionally, you can select the fee payment method to control how transaction fees are handled.

Usage Guidelines

• Supports payouts to over 180 countries in 30+ currencies, including CNY payouts in Mainland China.
• Sub-accounts for POBO transactions must be created in advance, and the account status must be active.
• To enable POBO mode, include the x-on-behalf-of parameter in the request header and specify the sub-account ID used for the payout. The beneficiary will see the customized payer name instead of the actual paying entity.
• Users can select the fee charge type by fee_paid_by parameter to determine who covers transaction costs:
  1. SHARED – Transaction fees are split between payer and recipient; payer pays sending bank fees while recipient pays receiving bank fees.
  2. OURS – All transaction fees, including intermediary bank charges, are paid by the payer.
• There are two ways to specify the beneficiary:
  1. Using beneficiary_id – If the beneficiary has already been created, provide the beneficiary_id to reference an existing beneficiary.
  2. Providing full beneficiary details – If the beneficiary has not been created before, include the full beneficiary information in the request. In this case, do not pass beneficiary_id.
