BANK AND MOBILE MONEY
How a GHS payout works.
1 · Send one request.
Set the corridor to GHS and add the amount, your own reference, and the beneficiary's bank account or mobile money wallet. You get a payout ID and a "processing" status straight away.
See the payout docs →
2 · Screened before it settles.
Every payout is checked in real time against sanctions lists, watchlists and risk indicators before any money moves. KYC, KYB, AML and CFT controls sit in the rail itself.
3 · Settled to bank or wallet.
The payout settles in under 5 seconds, and the status changes to "settled" with the exact time. If it cannot complete, for example an inactive wallet, it fails straight away with a reason.
