Periodic Payments

Further reading on how to create periodic payments with Yapily.

Introduction

Periodic payments are payments which the user can configure from their bank to pay an entity based on a schedule. In the UK, this is also known as a standing order. It is possible to create either domestic or international periodic payments provided that the Institution supports either DOMESTIC_PERIODIC_PAYMENT or INTERNATIONAL_PERIODIC_PAYMENT in the feature array.

NOTE: Open Banking only provides the means to send the payment initiation request to the Institution so it is not possible to modify or cancel a periodic through Open Banking, nor is it possible to receive confirmation of the whether each payment in a periodic payment was successfully credited to the payee bank account.
