Create Transaction Request
Initiate a Payment via a Transaction Request.
This is the preferred method to create a payment and supersedes makePayment in 1.2.1.
PSD2 Context: Third party access access to payments is a core tenent of PSD2.
This call satisfies that requirement from several perspectives:
1) A transaction can be initiated by a third party application.
2) The customer is informed of the charge that will incurred.
3) The call uses delegated authentication (OAuth)
See this python code for a complete example of this flow.
In sandbox mode, if the amount is less than 100 (any currency), the transaction request will create a transaction without a challenge, else the Transaction Request will be set to INITIALISED and a challenge will need to be answered.|
If a challenge is created you must answer it using Answer Transaction Request Challenge before the Transaction is created.
You can transfer between different currency accounts. (new in 2.0.0). The currency in body must match the sending account.
Currently TRANSACTION_REQUEST_TYPE must be set to SANDBOX_TAN

Get Transaction Request Types for Account
Returns the Transaction Request Types that the account specified by ACCOUNT_ID and view specified by VIEW_ID has access to.
These are the ways this API Server can create a Transaction via a Transaction Request
(as opposed to Transaction Types which include external types too e.g. for Transactions created by core banking etc.)
A Transaction Request Type internally determines:
- the required Transaction Request 'body' i.e. fields that define the 'what' and 'to' of a Transaction Request,
- the type of security challenge that may be be raised before the Transaction Request proceeds, and
- the threshold of that challenge.
For instance in a 'SANDBOX_TAN' Transaction Request, for amounts over 1000 currency units, the user must supply a positive integer to complete the Transaction Request and create a Transaction.
This approach aims to provide only one endpoint for initiating transactions, and one that handles challenges, whilst still allowing flexibility with the payload and internal logic.

Get Transaction Requests
Returns transaction requests for account specified by ACCOUNT_ID at bank specified by BANK_ID.
The VIEW_ID specified must be 'owner' and the user must have access to this view.
Version 2.0.0 now returns charge information.
Transaction Requests serve to initiate transactions that may or may not proceed. They contain information including:
- Transaction Request Id
- Type
- Status (INITIATED, COMPLETED)
- Challenge (in order to confirm the request)
- From Bank / Account
- Body including To Account, Currency, Value, Description and other initiation information. (Could potentialy include a list of future transactions.)
- Related Transactions
PSD2 Context: PSD2 requires transparency of charges to the customer.
This endpoint provides the charge that would be applied if the Transaction Request proceeds - and a record of that charge there after.
The customer can proceed with the Transaction by answering the security challenge.
