Sender Data

Learn how a payment sender relates to the API.

If you are doing Payment Transactions/OCTs, the following may apply:

  • Sender Information is required on all Payment transactions/OCTs for both Domestic transactions and OCTs.
  • Card networks require Sender Information when performing a Money Transfer. This typically includes Name, City, and Country.

For questions, contact TabaPay Support or email [email protected].

There are certain use cases where a merchant may be required to send information about the person sending money to the recipient.

For example, if your customer is sending funds to another person, the requirements around this information depend on the use case, corridor, and/or cross border vs domestic.

How Sender Data Works

The Create Transaction API request supports various types of transactions using the same end point.

Sender name will be sent using either the corresponding object or the accounts.sourceAccount.owner object depending on whether the transaction is push or pull respectively.

In a push transaction, use the corresponding.name object in the Create Transaction API request. Values that need to be populated will be dependent on the use case.

For questions, contact TabaPay Support, or email [email protected].

Cross-border OCTs will require that the Corresponding Object be populated with Sender information including Name, Address, etc.
