Best practice: Webhooks

Track transfers by listening to webhooks.

This page explains how to view transfer details using the API and your Customer Area.

Transfers represent funds that are credited or debited from a balance account. Before any money movement occurs, transfers must be:

You can track the status and details of transfers to support your business operations. For recurring operations, such as reconciling transfers, we recommend that you listen to webhooks.
