What are bank accounts?

Bank accounts let you register external banking destinations where you can send funds through off-ramp transactions. This enables you to pay suppliers, partners, or any third party directly from your platform.

How it works

When you create a bank account in Lumx, you’re registering the banking details of a recipient. Once registered, you can use this bank account to send off-ramp payments without needing to re-enter the banking information each time. Key points:
  • Bank accounts can belong to your registered customer or to third parties (like suppliers)
  • Each bank account is linked to a specific customer in your system
  • Bank accounts are verified before they can receive funds

Bank account types

Currently, Lumx supports:
  • EXTERNAL - Bank accounts outside of the Lumx platform

Payment rails

Bank accounts can be configured for different payment rails:
  • PIX - Brazilian instant payment system
More payment rails are coming soon.

What you can do

Create a bank account

Register a new bank account by providing:
  • Customer ID (who owns or manages this account)
  • Account name (for easy identification)
  • Payment rail (e.g., PIX)
  • Currency (e.g., BRL)
  • Account identifier (e.g., PIX key)
  • Holder information (legal name, tax ID, address)

List bank accounts

Retrieve all bank accounts, optionally filtered by customer ID.

Get bank account details

Verification

Bank accounts go through a verification process:
  • UNDER_VERIFICATION - Account details are being verified
  • APPROVED - Account is verified and ready to receive funds
  • REJECTED - Account verification failed

Use cases

Supplier payments Register your supplier’s bank account and pay them directly through off-ramp transactions. Customer withdrawals Let customers register their own bank accounts to withdraw funds.
