A bank account is the destination where fiat funds are sent when converting stablecoin to fiat or executing payouts.

What is a bank account?

Bank accounts are linked to customers and define where funds should be sent. Each bank account includes:
  • Account holder details and banking information
  • The relationship between the customer and account holder
  • Support for multiple payment rails depending on country and currency
Bank accounts work across all supported payment rails. For complete coverage details, see Coverage.

Holder relationships

When adding a bank account to a customer, you must specify the relationship between the customer and the account holder.
