Best practice: Webhooks

Track transfers by listening to webhooks.

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

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

  1. Initiated by events such as processing payments, paying out to your users, or moving funds between balance accounts.
  2. Authorized by Adyen.
  3. Captured, in payment events, or booked, in other events.

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

In other cases, you can view transfer details by making a GET /transfers request or using the Transfers page in your Customer Area.

Before you begin

View a list of transfers

You can view the list of transfers in your platform by making a GET /transfers request, or in your Customer Area.

To view a list of transfers in your Customer Area:

  1. Go to Transfers.
  2. Use filters to tailor the list.

With filters, you can modify the list of transfers based on the date, status, or reference numbers. This helps to highlight transfers with refusal problems.

For example, to see a list of payouts rejected by counterparty banks within a certain period, set the following filters:

  • Date: set a date range.
  • Type: select Bank transfer.
  • Status: select Failed.

Adyen assigns a PSP reference to all incoming payment requests. You can use this reference to filter the results in the transfers list. To do this:

  1. On the Transfers page, select + More filters.
  2. In the AVAILABLE FILTERS list, select PSP payment reference.
  3. Enter the PSP payment reference.
  4. Select Apply all.

The transfer list shows all corresponding transfers.

View a specific transfer

The following tabs explain how to find a specific transfer using your Customer Area or our API.

You can search for a transfer by its ID or description. You can limit the scope of search results by applying filters before searching.

To search for a transfer:

  1. Select Search.
  2. On the dropdown menu, select Transfers.
  3. In the text field, enter information such, as the Transfer ID or Description.

The search window now shows only the corresponding transfers.

You can also see the transfer details listed in a separate Transfers details page. To open this page, select a Transfer ID.

Download a transfer confirmation letter

If a user asks about a transfer, you can send them a bank transfer confirmation letter which you can download from your Customer Area. The letter is in PDF format, shows the transfer details and the beneficiary account, and confirms that Adyen has sent the instruction to carry out the transfer.

To download bank transfer confirmation letters, your account must have the following role:
