Overview

Let us consider the case of a customer who has completed 1 purchase including items from 2 sellers (seller A and seller B), with the total value of the purchase being 100€, which consists of 10€ marketplace fees, 50€ seller payout to seller A and 40€ seller payout to seller B.

Thus, in order to transfer the fees and the payouts, the following payment flows need to be processed:

1. Transfer of marketplace fees (10€) from platform account to marketplace
2. Transfer of seller payout (50€) from platform account to seller A
3. Transfer of seller payout (40€) from platform account to seller B

Balance Transfer: Request information

The required and optional fields for the request are shown in the table below.

Step 1: Transfer of marketplace fees (10€) from platform account to marketplace

For this example you need first to find the wallet IDs of your platform account and marketplace account. The marketplace owner has access to both the platform account and marketplace account, so it is straightforward to find the IDs for these wallets.

Example request

This API call uses Basic authentication.

curl '[Environment URL]'
-H 'Content-Type: application/json'
-H 'Authorization: Basic [Base64-encoded Merchant ID and API Key (platform account)]'
-d '{
  "amount": "1000",
  "description": "[Optional text to show on account statement]",
  "saleTransactionId": "[Optional transaction ID for the related sale]"
}'

<?php

$curl = curl_init();

curl_setopt_array($curl, array(
  CURLOPT_URL => '[Environment URL]',
  CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
  CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS => 10,
  CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 30,
  CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION => true,
  CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION => CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1,
  CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST => 'POST',
  CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS =>'{
  "amount": "1000",
  "description": "[Optional text to show on account statement]",
  "saleTransactionId": "[Optional transaction ID for the related sale]"
}',
  CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER => array(
    'Content-Type: application/json',
    'Authorization: Basic [Base64-encoded Merchant ID and API Key (platform account)]'
  ),
));

$response = curl_exec($curl);

curl_close($curl);
echo $response;

Example response

{
    "DebitTransactionId": "b8ff48b5-a2ac-4c95-a4fe-f4c1c9f5741b", //refers to platform account
    "CreditTransactionId": "9a85d019-6ec6-4e27-be45-84ef320b8d3e" //refers to marketplace account
}

Step 2: Transfer of seller payout (50€) from platform account to seller A

For this example you need first to find the wallet IDs of your platform account and the account of seller A. The marketplace owner has access to the platform account, so it is straightforward to find the ID for the platform account wallet. However, he needs to ask for the seller wallet ID from the seller.

Example request

This API call uses Basic authentication.

curl '[Environment URL]'
-H 'Content-Type: application/json'
-H 'Authorization: Basic [Base64-encoded Merchant ID and API Key (platform account)]'
-d '{
  "amount": "5000",
  "description": "[Optional text to show on account statement]",
  "saleTransactionId": "[Optional transaction ID for the related sale]"
}'

<?php

$curl = curl_init();

curl_setopt_array($curl, array(
  CURLOPT_URL => '[Environment URL],
  CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
  CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS => 10,
  CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 30,
  CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION => true,
  CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION => CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1,
  CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST => 'POST',
  CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS =>'{
  "amount": "5000",
  "description": "[Optional text to show on account statement]",
  "saleTransactionId": "[Optional transaction ID for the related sale]"
}',
  CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER => array(
    'Content-Type: application/json',
    'Authorization: Basic [Base64-encoded Merchant ID and API Key (platform account)]'
  ),
));

$response = curl_exec($curl);

curl_close($curl);
echo $response;

Example response

{
    "DebitTransactionId": "ad1a348f-c6f5-47c4-8e2a-7cb68eab1e6a", //refers to platform account
    "CreditTransactionId": "ec4b3a7e-5e03-4c58-b163-741e45d80121" //refers to seller account
}

Step 3: Transfer of seller payout (40€) from platform account to seller B

For this example you need first to find the wallet IDs of your platform account and the account of seller B. The marketplace owner has access to the platform account, so it is straightforward to find the ID for the platform account wallet. However, they need to ask for the seller wallet ID from the seller.

Example request

This API call uses Basic authentication.

curl '[Environment URL]'
-H 'Content-Type: application/json'
-H 'Authorization: Basic [Base64-encoded Merchant ID and API Key (platform account)]'
-d '{
  "amount": "4000",
  "description": "[Optional text to show on account statement]",
  "saleTransactionId": "[Optional transaction ID for the related sale]"
}'

<?php

$curl = curl_init();

curl_setopt_array($curl, array(
  CURLOPT_URL => '[Environment URL]',
  CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
  CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS => 10,
  CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 30,
  CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION => true,
  CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION => 'CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1',
  CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST => 'POST',
  CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS =>'{
  "amount": "4000",
  "description": "[Optional text to show on account statement]",
  "saleTransactionId": "[Optional transaction ID for the related sale]"
}',
  CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER => array(
    'Content-Type: application/json',
    'Authorization: Basic [Base64-encoded Merchant ID and API Key (platform account)]'
  ),
));

$response = curl_exec($curl);

curl_close($curl);
echo $response;

Example response

{
    "DebitTransactionId": "7c588733-3531-4df1-bcb5-1cdf70ce239a", //refers to platform account
    "CreditTransactionId": "5ffc4758-102d-4108-b3bf-bf7a867f7fc9" //refers to seller account
