The Payee Management API allows you to create and manage reusable recipient records for a specific Paywint user. A payee represents the recipient identity referenced during payment creation.
This API manages recipient records.

​
What This API Provides

The Payee API enables your integration to:
  • Create a reusable payee tied to a specific user
  • Store at least one verified contact method (email or phone with country code)
  • Retrieve a payee by ID
  • List all payees associated with a user (paginated)
  • Update payee details
  • Delete unused payees
Each payee must include:
  • name (recipient display name)
  • At least one contact method
An optional metadata field may be used to store application-specific reference data.
