Fund Transfer Overview

You can initiate transfers to single or multiple recipients from your available Leatherback payout balance via the supported categories below.

• Single Transfer

• Bulk transfers: you'll provide an array of objects. Each item in this array contains details for one transfer—the same details you specify when making a single transfer

• Cross Currency Transfer: Read more on SendR

You can Initiate a Fund transfer irrespective of whether it’s a Single or Bulk transfer as classified above by simply making a POST request to our Funds transfer endpoint.

The details will vary depending on the type of transfer, Currency, and Payment Method Type but you'll also need to provide the following basic details as Amount, Currency, Beneficiary account name, Beneficiary Account Number, narration describing the transfer, a tenant reference, address, nameEnquiryRef, beneficiaryKYCLevel, beneficiaryBankVerificationNumber

Leatherback will send you a notification for each transfer in the batch as it gets completed (successful or failed), provided you have webhooks configured on the Dev Portal.

You can also check the status of a bulk transfer manually using the Fetch Bulk Transaction Status endpoint with a batch_id query parameter. The batch_id is the data returned from the Initiate Fund Transfer response:
