The Remittance feature enables partner businesses to act as money transfer operators by sending funds from their Yabetoo business account to end beneficiaries (customers, individuals, or companies) on behalf of their own users. Unlike the standard transfer feature—which allows merchants to send funds from their account for their own use—remittance is designed for businesses that offer money transfer services to third parties.

Purpose & Benefits

The Remittance API allows you to:
  • Transfer funds on behalf of a third-party user (agent, customer, or end recipient).
  • Enrich transfers with custom metadata (internal reference, user ID, transfer channel, etc.).
  • Track transaction status in real time (pending, processing, succeeded, failed).
  • Receive webhook notifications as remittance status changes.
  • Manage remittance operations through a secure, flexible API.
