The Payout API is deprecated and no longer supports new integrations. Do one of the following:

  • If you are building a new integration, use the Transfers API instead.
  • If you are already using the Payout API, reach out to your Adyen contact to learn how to migrate to the Transfers API.

With the Transfers API, you can:

  • Handle multiple payout use cases with a single API.
  • Use new payout functionalities, such as instant payouts to bank accounts.
  • Receive webhooks with more details and defined transfer states.

For more information about the payout features of the Transfers API, see our Payouts documentation.

A set of API endpoints that allow you to store payout details, confirm, or decline a payout.

For more information, refer to Online payouts.

Authentication

To use the Payout API, you need to have two API credentials: one for storing payout details and submitting payouts, and another one for confirming or declining payouts. If you don't have the required API credentials, contact our Support Team.

If using an API key, add an X-API-Key header with the API key as the value, for example:

curl
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
...

Alternatively, you can use the username and password to connect to the API using basic authentication.

The following example shows how to authenticate your request with basic authentication when submitting a payout:

curl
-U "storePayout@Company.YOUR_COMPANY_ACCOUNT":"YOUR_BASIC_AUTHENTICATION_PASSWORD" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
...

Versioning

Payments API supports versioning using a version suffix in the endpoint URL. This suffix has the following format: "vXX", where XX is the version number.

For example:

https://pal-test.adyen.com/pal/servlet/Payout/v68/payout

Going live

To authenticate to the live endpoints, you need API credentials from your live Customer Area.

The live endpoint URLs contain a prefix which is unique to your company account:


https://{PREFIX}-pal-live.adyenpayments.com/pal/servlet/Payout/v68/payout

Get your {PREFIX} from your live Customer Area under Developers > API URLs > Prefix.
