Frequently asked questions

What can I read?

What can I write?

Transfers on ACH, RTP, FedNow, check, and virtual card. Card issuance and limits. Entity and account creation for approved platforms.

How is the EOB JSON produced?

Paper EOBs arrive at the lockbox, are digitized, and are extracted into the same schema as an 835. Low-confidence fields are flagged.

Yes, with test accounts and simulated rails. Ask for sandbox keys.
