Verify Account Bank Account PIX

This guide quickly demonstrates how to verify destination Bank Account PIX whether it exists or not and if is valid. We will walk you through the basic steps to achieve this goal using your already existing API integration.

Instructions

Follow the steps below:

1. Verify account using the /ws/payout/verify_account end-point

   To verify account, you will use the /ws/payout/verify_account endpoint.

   The following fields are required:

   Field	Description
   integration_key	Your EBANX integration key.
   target	Provider that will process the payment (bank_account_pix).
   country	The two-letter country code for the customer country. In this case, we’ll show the method to br (Brazil).
   bank_info	Destination account to query.
   bank_info.bank_document	A valid CPF or CNPJ document number.

   The following example shows how to verify a destination account:

   Shell

   curl -X POST \
     --location 'https://sandbox.ebanxpay.com/ws/payout/verify_account' \
     --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
     --data '{
       "integration_key": "{{integration_key}}",
       "target": "bank_account_pix",
       "country": "br",
       "bank_info": {
           "bank_name": "104  Caixa Econômica",
           "bank_branch": "{{bank_branch}}",
           "bank_account": "{{bank_account}}",
           "account_type": "C",
           "bank_document": "{{tax_id}}"
       }
   }'

   And a successful query will return a JSON Object with status "valid" and the recipient's bank information.

   JSON

   {
     "recipient": {
       "name": "John Doe",
       "document": "{{tax_id}}",
       "bank_branch": "{{bank_branch}}",
       "bank_account": "{{bank_account}}",
       "bank_agency": "0",
       "account_type": "CHECKING"
     },
     "status": "valid",
     "message": "Account is valid"
   }

   And an unsuccessful query will return a JSON Object with status "invalid", with a message explaining the reason.

   JSON

   {
     "status": "invalid",
     "message": "Account does not exist in provider"
   }

   The verification of a Bank Account PIX is asynchronous: while the verification is still being processed, the query returns a JSON Object with status "pending" and the message "The request is processing".

   JSON

   {
     "status": "pending",
     "message": "The request is processing"
   }

   The "pending" status is not a final result. Repeat the same request until the response returns "valid" or "invalid".
