Capital API
The Capital API provides endpoints for embedding Adyen Capital into your marketplace or platform. With Capital, you can offer business financing to your users as grants. When a user receives a grant, they must repay the grant amount in a specified term, in addition to paying a fee for using this service.
With these endpoints, you can:
- Get available grant offers: You can get the grant offers that are available for your users. Adyen configures the financing amount, the fee, and the repayment conditions for each offer. These configurations are based on proactive risk analyses that Adyen performs on your users.
- Make requests for grants: When a user selects a grant offer, you can make a request for the grant on their behalf.
- Get information about your grant account: Your grant account tracks the information of all grants in your marketplace or platform.

Each request made to the Capital API must be signed with an API key. Generate an API key in your Customer Area.

header with the API key as the value, for example:

...
