Ad hoc webhooks

How to secure your callback endpoints

When sending a payment, creating a local withdrawal or ordering a conversion you can provide us a webhook (callback) URI - callbackUri. We will call it when a payment or withdrawal status changes.

We recommend API clients to generate and add ?signature=ASecretPerPaymentKey query to your callbackUri to make sure it's Flash Payments calling your webhook endpoint. For example:

https://my-webhooks.example.com/flash-payments?signature=oZaDlmfXbdXSKCnuWrvos2ImVBFX2Ru5

To avoid storing the signatures in a database we recommend generating them on the fly using a strong hash function or any kind of cryptography.

Example

This is just an example. Feel free to sign your URLs the way you want.

You would need to implement two functions.

  1. Function to generate "signature".

  2. Function to verify the "signature".

Node.js pseudo code to generate a signature in your integration code.

The code above creates a callbackUri and externalId variables. Use both of them when creating a transfer in Flash Payments API.

Node.js pseudo code of your webhook HTTP request handler.

Generating signatures

Verifying signatures

const secret = "abcdefg";
function generateSignature(string) {
  return require("node:crypto")
    .createHmac("sha256", secret) // your secret key
    .update(string)
    .digest("base64");
}

const signature = generateSignature(stringIdFromMyDatabase);
const callbackUri = 
  "https://my-webhooks.example.com/flashfx?signature=" + signature;
const externalId = stringIdFromMyDatabase;

// Use both callbackUri and externalId when creating transfers with Flash Payments API
function myCallbackEndpointHandler(req, res) {
  const signature = req.query.signature;
  const stringIdFromMyDatabase = req.body.externalId;
  
  if (generateSignature(stringIdFromMyDatabase) !== signature) {
    console.error("Security warning! Webhook endpoint received bad data", req);
    res.sendStatus(500);
    return;
  }
  
  // continue with the webhook processing
}

Overview

Flash Payments Developer API documentation

General information

Flash Payments API is GraphQL-based, offering simple and developer-friendly querying experience. All data is exchanged in JSON format.

Flash Payments API playground is located here: https://api.uat.flash-payments.com.au/

Complete API docs

This documentation website does not have full list of API fields and methods. This is intentional. The full list of the API calls you can performs and the data fields you can send/receive is listed in the API Playground (click "DOCS" on the right hand side).

High level feature overview

You can search, visualise, or extract your data using our FlashConnect interface.

Instant local Australian deposit (aka pay-in)

Once registration is complete, a dedicated BSB and Virtual Account Number (VAN) for use within Australia will be assigned to you.

IMPORTANT: Your Australian VAN will be restricted to local Australian transfers. For international payments (aka FX payments), we offer different solutions.

Any funds deposited to your VAN would increase your Flash Payments balance. We store and retain the reference attached to each deposit (e.g., an invoice number) to support your reconciliation or reporting needs.

By default, only you can deposit into your VAN. Third-party deposits are also supported, but this feature must be enabled separately

Deposits are typically processed in real time, but depending on the bank, there may be a delay of up to 24 hours.

You can configure webhook notifications to receive alerts for every deposit made to your VAN. Please visit to set up your deposit webhook.

You can manually reject unwanted deposits via the interface. The funds will be returned to the original sender bank account.

The Flash Payments API enables you to withdraw funds from your Flash Payments balance. By default, only you are authorized to receive these withdrawals. Third-party withdrawals (also known as payouts) are available upon request and require separate activation.

If your payout involves a foreign exchange (FX) payment, it must be processed using the Australian Direct Entry system in accordance with legal requirements. Processing time may vary from immediate to a few hours. Other payouts are credited instantly.

If a payout fails, you will receive a webhook notification detailing the reason for the failure.

The payout remitter name is configurable. You can give us the remitter name as withdrawal.sender data property. This is especially useful for FX-linked payouts. If a Brazilian mama Katarina Oreiro sends money to her son in Australia, he will see his mom's name in the bank statement - "Payment from Katarina Oreiro".

Payouts can also be done via the interface.

You can send your Flash Payments balance internationally via our API and benefit from instant delivery to many countries with local instant payment systems (e.g. Philippines)

To initiate a payment, you must pre-create the sender and recipient via the API.

All entities in our database, including withdrawals, payments, senders, and recipients, can store your system’s unique identifier. Please refer to the externalId field in the .

Payment delivery times depend on the recipient's country. While many are processed quickly, some may take additional time. You’ll be notified via webhook whenever the payment status changes.

You can send funds through an international payment to your Flash Payments account. A webhook notification will be triggered when we detect payments from other countries.

The API token you generate expires in 4 hours. You can always use logout GraphQL mutation to expire it earlier.

You can't reset your own password until we verify your identity.

The interface supports Google and One-Time-Password logins.

Webhooks have cryptographic signatures.

IP address whitelisting feature is available from FlashConnect interface allowing login to our APIs from only preapproved addresses that you specify.

API rate limiting is in place to ensure stable performance of our service and prevent its potential abuse.

  1. Contact with us via or by clicking the Intercom button on the bottom right of this page.

  2. Explain what kind of services you are looking from Flash Payments.

  3. We will examine your needs and explain how to get access to our UAT environment.

For more detailed instructions head to the page.

While we will endeavour to not introduce any breaking changes they might still occur in the future. In that case we will communicate about the upcoming changes via your registered email.

Sub-client statuses

Sub-client VANs lifecycle

A sub-client lifecycle follows these stages.

A sub-client is created and has the temporary INITIATED status. At this stage, the request has been received and the system is currently processing it.

If processing is completed successfully, the sub-client automatically transitions to the ACTIVE. In this status, the sub-client is fully activated and approved.

If the sub-client requires manual compliance review, the sub-client moves from INITIATED to the temporary UNAPPROVED status. From this status it would eventually transition to either ACTIVE or FAILED_KYC. Typically, we can't disclose the exact reason of the KYC failure, while it mostly happens because we do not have risk appetite for your client.

You can deactivate the client (via API of Flash Connect), - it'd move from ACTIVE to DEACTIVATED. A sub-client in the DEACTIVATED status can be activated by you at any time, returning to ACTIVE.

At any point, a sub-client may be moved to DISABLED. In this status, the sub-client is disabled and cannot be enabled by you, and contacting support is required for further information.

Payouts

Disburse your money to a third party bank account

You can create payouts via the createWithdrawal mutation.

You can retrieve your payouts via the withdrawals query.

Sometimes you'd need to understand the supported delivery methods using the availableDeliveryMethods query.

If you get instructed by another financial institution then you must submit their details too.

If the payouts didn't pass compliance we would reject it with a proper rejection code and descriptive message.

Conversions

Convert between your multi-currency balances

If you use our multi-currency feature, you can exchange currency and convert funds between your master accounts in real-time.

Conversion fees are detailed in your contract and vary based on your use case and risk assessment.

Conversion statuses

The GraphQL schema defines statuses like this:

enum ConversionStatus {
    INITIALISED
    PENDING
    CONVERTED
    FAILED
    CANCELLED
}

The status of a conversion can be any of the following:

  • INITIALISED — A conversion record was created, but no further action has been taken. This status typically does not occur via the API.

  • PENDING — The conversion is in progress. This is the usual status immediately after creation.

  • CONVERTED — The conversion completed successfully. Your balances have been updated accordingly.

  • FAILED — An error occurred during the conversion. This is usually a temporary state.

  • CANCELLED — The conversion was not completed and has been cancelled. This action is typically performed by the Flash Payments operations team.

Why GraphQL

General information how to start using Flash Payments API

The examples below assume you are a verified customer of Flash Payments and have been enabled for API access.

GraphQL Playground

All the GraphQL queries can be sent via the GraphQL Playground or as a HTTP POST request to https://api.uat.flash-payments.com.au. Example:

echo '{
  "query":
    "{
       quote(input: {
         fromCurrency: AUD, toCurrency: USD, size: 9.9, currency: AUD
       })
       {
         bid ask symbol timestamp inverted
       }
     }"
}' | curl -X POST 'https://api.uat.flash-payments.com.au' \
-H 'authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN' \
-H 'content-type: application/json' \
-d @-

All the responses are JSON and have at least one property data and optional property errors.

{
  "data": { ... },
  "errors": [ ... ]
}

In GraphQL Playground query editor press Cmd+Space or Ctrl+Space or Opt+Space or Alt+Space or Shift+Space to show context help and possible options.

Some of the GraphQL query parameters are required, others are optional. To understand if a variable/property is required you would need to check the API schema.

  • Go to the and click the button "DOCS" on the right.

  • Browse through queries, mutations, input and output types. Find a variable/property which have an exclamation mark at the end. E.g. fromCurrency: FromCurrency!.

  • The exclamation mark denotes that the variable/property is mandatory.

It is a good idea to always send custom user-agent HTTP header value when doing requests to Flash Payments API. Here is why:

  • In case of troubleshooting we will be able to trace and mitigate your support questions faster.

  • You might be blocked by our automated firewall if your user agent is something generic like curl, Java-http-client, python-requests, Ruby, etc.

Our API have smart monitoring and it may temporarily block your IP if it detects system misuse. For more information, please refer to the page.

Required fields

Here is how to identify the mandatory input fields for your GraphQL queries and mutations.

Most documentation examples utilise typical GraphQL input data for successfully executing queries.

It's strongly encouraged that you always submit complete and accurate data, as this reduces our compliance team's reviewing efforts and, as a result, speeds up transactions and provides a great experience for your customers.

At the same time, we recognise that gathering complete customer information can be technically challenging, particularly regarding country-specific address details or account information. As a result, our API documentation emphasises the required input fields based on the principle of minimal necessity.

Please pay attention to the exclamation mark ( ! ) next to the field type in the API schema specification from the "Docs" section of our API Playground. Those are the required fields as it's demonstated on the screenshot below:

Please always verify that you have all required data to initiate a successful mutation or query.

Deposit statuses

Deposit processing statuses

Upon detecting a deposit in a Flash Payments Virtual Account Number (VAN), we immediately record it as a deposit in our system.

The status of a successful deposit goes through the following lifecycle

INITIALISED->REVIEWING→CONFIRMED

If you choose to reject a deposit, its status goes through the following lifecycle instead:

INITIALISED->REVIEWING→CONFIRMED→REFUNDING→REFUNDED

If Flash Payments Compliance choose to reject a deposit, its status lifecycle goes through following stages:

INITIALISED→REVIEWING→REFUNDING→REFUNDED

FX Payments

Convert and send your balance as single instruction

What we call "FX Payment" is a fully orchestrated account to account delivery of any currency(-ies) we support. Typical examples:

  • You need to send from the EU to Australia. You would have a European virtual IBAN on your name. As soon as you deposit some EUR to it - you'll see a corresponding amount of AUD on your master balance in a matter of minutes, which you'll be able to use immediately.

  • You need to fund someone's overseas IBAN in Euros. You send us the AUD and give us the recipient's details either via API or via you FlashConnect back-office GUI. We orchestrate the rest.

You can create payments. using the createPayment mutation.

You can your payments with the payments query.

But before you need to understand the supported delivery methods using the query.

Adverse Media Search

Screen individuals and organisations against adverse media sources

Adverse Media Search (AMS) lets you screen an individual or organisation against web-based adverse media sources — news articles, court records, and other publicly available content.

The feature is also available through the portal. You can perform the AMS directly from the UI, view your request history, and monitor usage statistics without writing any code. This can be useful for getting familiar with the feature before integrating it into your application via the API.

You can run a search via the adverseMediaSearch mutation or past searches via the amsRequest and amsRequests queries. Scans run in the background and can take several minutes. Use webhooks or poll the amsRequest query to track progress. See AMS statuses for the full lifecycle.

Master Balance

Query your master account balances

Paste this query to the GraphQL Playground

The cleared is the Primary balance you see on the Flash Connect website.

The pending balance is typically not shown on the Flash Connect interface because it's rather short lived. If your Pending

Virtual account numbers

Generate named Virtual Account Numbers (aka sub-clients) for your clients' for collection

The sub-client (aka merchant) feature allows you to create client accounts for deposit collection purposes. These virtual accounts can be issued to individuals, companies, or other organisations.

Each sub-client will receive a dedicated BSB and Vitrual Account Number (VAN) that you or your clients can use to accept and withdraw domestic AUD transfers within Australia.

The account name is your sub-client's name. For companies - it's their tradingAsName or legalName. For individuals - it's their fullName (firstName + middleName

Rejection codes

How to handle a payout rejection

If your withdrawal is canceled (aka rejected) by our AML and Compliance team, you'll receive the webhook containing both a rejection code (rejectCode) and a manually written rejection reason (statusMessage). You can find the same two properties within the GraphQL type.

Here is a current list of all possible rejectCodes, but please note this list can be extended with time.

Please also note that while the rejection codes are set, the corresponding free text statusMessage will have a case-by-case human written text explaining the root cause of the cancellation. We'll try to be as descriprive as possible taking into account the legal bounds (we are not allowed by the law to disclose certain information).

Deposits

Explains how to accept deposits programmatically

After fully registering with us, you get a BSB and a dedicated Virtual Account Number (VAN).

Every deposit to your VAN would increase your Flash Payments balance.

Every deposit can trigger a notification, keeping you informed in real time

The deposit data includes the payment reference (we call it externalReference in this API).

By default, only you are permitted to make deposits. However, we can enable third-party deposits for your account upon request. Once enabled, your account number functions as a local collection account, allowing others to deposit funds on your behalf.

We can also enable the

Payment statuses

The GraphQL schema defines statuses like this:

The status of a payment can be any of the following:

Payment Statuses:

  • INITIALISING – a draft payment. It may or may not have all required information to be executed. Typically, this never happens through the API. Can be created via the under certain circumstances.

  • OPEN – The payment is in progress.

CoP response codes

Here is the list of all possible CoP response codes.

Reference data

  1. - query bank information to validate if we support your BSB, IBAN, BIC (aka Swift code).

  2. depositDetails - query the accounts you can send deposits to in order to increase your Flash Payments master balance.

The REVIEWING is an optional action by Flash Payments Compliance team. Occasionally we pick some transactions for extended AML/CT review. Most transactions do not ever get into the REVIEWING status.

).

If your Flash account has a multi-currency feature enabled, each of your sub-clients will also have access to virtual accounts in the selected currencies for which you hold balances.

All deposits sent to your sub-client Virtual Account Numbers (VANs) are booked on your (master-client's) corresponding account balances. Sub-clients can't have their own balances.

You can disburse funds and make FX payments on behalf of your sub-clients by providing the sub-client ID when you create withdrawals or payments. This sub-client record will then be used as the sender, linked to the transaction, and reported to the government.

Notifications via webhooks will provide important sub-client information as well.

Note: This feature is disabled by default. Contact us if you want it.

IMPORTANT: Your Australian VAN will be restricted to local Australian transfers. For international payments (aka FX payments), we offer different solutions.

Data cleansing is your responsibility

    Withdrawal statuses

    Withdrawal processing statuses

    1. You create a withdrawal. Your balance goes down by the withdrawal amount plus fee. INITIALISED

      1. We might internally review the transaction. INITIALISED-> REVIEWING

      2. If review goes well it will become pending. REVIEWING→ PENDING

      3. Otherwise it gets cancelled. REVIEWING→ CANCELLED

    2. The transaction is sent to the recipient bank for processing. INITIALISED → PENDING

    3. PENDING →

      • CONFIRMED - the recipient bank has the money now. Does not mean the beneficiary account number was credited though. Mostly FINAL status. Except when bank decides to return the funds, the withdrawal gets refunded (see step 4).

    4. The recipient bank decided to return this transaction back to Flash Payments.CONFIRMED → FAILED → REFUNDED - usual way - automatic refunding. Your balance goes up by the withdrawal amount, Flash Payments keeps the fee. FINAL status.

    The payout passed our automated compliance checks and was processed successfully:

    INITIALISED→PENDING→CONFIRMED

    The payout was successfully processed after a manual compliance review:

    INITIALISED→REVIEWING→PENDING→CONFIRMED

    Recipient bank accepts the payout but then returns it:

    INITIALISED→PENDING→CONFIRMED→FAILED→REFUNDED

    Recipient bank rejects the payout:

    INITIALISED→PENDING→FAILED→REFUNDED

    Flash Payments Compliance team rejects the payout:

    INITIALISED→REVIEWING→CANCELLED

    Withdrawal outcomes simulation

    Test common payout outcomes in UAT, as you build and exercise your integration solution against the full range of real-life withdrawal flows, statuses and webhooks before going live.

    To trigger a happy or unhappy path scenario, put the corresponding keyword in the externalReference field when you submit a withdrawal. The keyword instructs our system to automatically simulate that outcome instead of routing the withdrawal through the standard compliance and payout pipelines, which may require manual intervention by a compliance analyst. Typically, you want to adapt your system to handle the following common withdrawal scenarios:

    1. Too long in the REVIEWING status

    If your withdrawal is in this status this means that we are doing an internal review of it. It happens occasionally when you trigger our monitoring rules. Also, this means that we have sent your Compliance Team (or else) an email message requesting more information. You must respond. In other words, if there is a delay - it's on you. Because Flash Payments delivers all your transactions in real-time 24/7.

    Please always provide accurate and information, including the full address, to prevent delays associated with internal compliance reviews on our side.

    Sender and recipient addresses are automatically validated when a transaction is created. If the address cannot be verified, the transaction will be flagged for review by our Compliance team, resulting in processing delays. To help ensure smooth and timely processing, please provide complete and accurate address details.

    You can simulate the behaviour. Your externalReference must include this text: HALT_AML. For example: "testing HALT_AML attempt 2". The withdrawal will get stuck in REVIEWING forever.

    We checked the data you sent us for withdrawal. We didn't like it. So we cancel it immediately.

    You can simulate the behaviour. Your externalReference must include this text: FAIL_AML. For example: "testing FAIL_AML attempt 4". The withdrawal will be cancelled next moment after you submit it.

    If our smart AML/TM checks stop your withdrawal for manual review, you can have it automatically pushed forward by including PUSH_AML in the externalReference. For example: "testing PUSH_AML attempt 5". This enables the transaction to continue as if it were approved by the compliance analyst. It can be particularly useful during your integration testing activities and also help with UAT regression testing later.

    Please note that the REVIEWING status for this payout will be recorded on our end, and a withdrawal_reviewing webhook will be sent.

    Whenever our Compliance team needs more details about specific withdrawal, you’ll receive an email with a link to the RFI form. The withdrawal will sit in REVIEWING until you respond to the RFI via the link in the email and a compliance analyst marks it satisfactory.

    You can simulate the behaviour by including SEND_RFI text into the externalReference For example: "testing SEND_RFI attempt 3". The withdrawal remains in REVIEWING until you respond to the RFI. At that point, we will review your submission and provide feedback, and then manually push the transaction forward. The primary goal of this test is to familiarize your team with our RFI process and address any questions beforehand, ensuring a smooth transition to production.

    A common scenario in the Australian domestic payment system involves a transaction that appears successful initially, but is later reversed by the recipient’s bank—sometimes days after processing. This can happen for various reasons, such as an invalid or closed account number, an account in the wrong currency, or other account-related issues.

    You can simulate the behaviour. Your externalReference must include this text: FAIL_ACC. For example: "testing FAIL_ACC attempt 8". The withdrawal will be completed, and next moment failed and refunded.

    RFI statuses

    RFI lifecycle statuses

    Most common RFI status transitions follow one of these paths.

    Happy path

    PENDING → ASSESSING → CLOSED

    1. It starts when our compliance review flags one of your transactions. An RFI is created with a list of questions and a response deadline. Status PENDING means the RFI is open for your response. Answer each question via before deadline. The status stays PENDING until all answers are received or the deadline passes.

    2. The last open question is answered. Status ASSESSING means that all your answers have been received and are under our review. No action is required from you.

    3. The review is completed. Status CLOSED means that the RFI is finalised. No further answers are accepted. Final status.

    Declined or expired path

    PENDING → CLOSED

    An RFI can also move to CLOSED directly from PENDING when you , or when the deadline passes without a complete response from your end.

    Cancelled path

    PENDING → CANCELLED or ASSESSING → CANCELLED

    Separately from your responses, our compliance team can withdraw an RFI when the information is no longer needed — for example the underlying transaction question was resolved another way. The RFI moves to CANCELLED, no further answers are accepted, and any linked deposits, withdrawals, or payments are left untouched and continue on their own lifecycle. You don't need to do anything — we notify you by email and via the rfi_cancelled webhook. Final status.

    Each transition emits a :

    Event
    Status

    Status message

    The statusMessage field carries a meaningful explanation of the current status, for example "We are waiting for your replies" while PENDING, or "We assessed the information you provided" once CLOSED. The exact wording varies with the circumstances — treat it as display text, not as a value to parse.

    Confirmation of Payee

    Verify that a payee's account name matches their bank account details

    Confirmation of Payee (CoP) is a security feature that verifies whether an account holder's name matches the account details you provide. It helps to:

    • Reduce fraud by verifying the account holder's name before sending funds

    • Prevent accidental payments to wrong accounts due to mistyped details

    • Provide confidence that money is being sent to the intended recipient

    • Alert you when the account name doesn't match or only partially matches

    To verify account details, execute the confirmationOfPayee mutation. You must provide the accountIdType, the relevant account details, and the accountName you wish to verify.

    The code field in the response indicates the .

    The billable field indicates whether the CoP request may be subject to a fee.

    Rate limiting

    How to avoid and resolve HTTP 429 Too Many Requests

    Limits

    This API apply various rate limits depending on the type of HTTP request or GraphQL query being executed, as well as the number of such requests. The rate-limiting mechanism is quite dynamic and is based on the IP address(es), error rates, HTTP headers, and the GraphQL queries.

    We do not disclose the exact limits due to their complexity and our security policy. However, it's nearly impossible to reach the limits if your requests are properly formed.

    When one of the numerous limits exceeds the API typically responds with

    1. the HTTP status 429

    2. the HTTP header:

    3. and a JSON body:

    Here are the common situations when you might get yourself temporarily blocked:

    • When your requests produce numerous errors, e.g. malformed header, JSON body, or a GraphQL query.

    • When you send too many requests without a valid Authorization header.

    • When you send too many requests within a very short period.

    Please contact our support team via the established communication channels. We will manually reset the counters for you.

    Sending data as JSON

    Here is how to send your data to us as JSON instead of embedding it into the GraphQL queries.

    For your initial tests, it may be easier and more practical to send data by embedding values directly into the GraphQL queries and mutations, as shown in the example below.

    At the same time, to enable efficient and accurate handling of complex queries in code, we support sending GraphQL queries as JSON objects that consist of two properties: "query" and "variables". Here is how you can do it:

    • Declare the $input variable in the QraphQL "query"

    Request for Information

    Respond to compliance information requests programmatically

    A Request for Information (RFI) is a compliance request raised by Flash Payments against deposits, withdrawals, or payments that require additional information before they can be released. RFIs are created on our side when a compliance review flags certain transactions — you cannot create RFIs via the API.

    Each RFI carries a list of questions and a response deadline. There are two ways to respond:

    • Via the API (this section) — receive a webhook, , n with text or documents, or if you cannot comply.

    RFI response codes

    All reply codes and GraphQL errors

    There are two places an RFI call can report a problem: the code field on the mutation reply payload, and the top-level GraphQL errors array.

    Returned in the code field of AnswerRfiQuestionReply / DeclineRfiReply:

    Address Cleanser

    Validate and standardise physical addresses

    Address Cleanser is a data-standardisation and geocoding utility designed to ensure physical addresses exist and are correctly formatted. It standardises a supplied address against multiple geocoding providers and returns a suggested recommendation together with a score.

    It helps you:

    • Validate and standardise addresses before processing payments

    • Reduce failed deliveries due to incorrect or unrecognised addresses

    Decline an RFI

    When you cannot provide the requested information

    Use the declineRfi mutation when you are unable to provide the requested information — the API equivalent of "Unable to comply" on the secure form.

    Declining:

    • marks the RFI as CLOSED — an webhook is dispatched;

    :
    {
    input: {
    fromDate: "2023-08-28T00:00:00+03:00",
    currency: "USD",
    },
    },
    query: `
    query ($input: StatementQueryInput!) {
    statement(input: $input) {
    succes code message fromDate toDate
    rows {
    debit credit
    }
    }
    }`,
    };
    statement(input: $input) {
    success

    fromDate
    toDate
    rows {
    debit

    }
    }
    }
    FAILED - NOT FINAL status. Depending on the processing error we have three scenarios now.
    • REFUNDED - see step 4 below.

    • CANCELLED - manual action. Your balance goes up by the amount, Flash Payments keeps the fee. FINAL status.

    • PENDING - rare case - retrying. Sometimes it might work. Go to item 3.

    The REVIEWING is an optional action by Flash Payments Compliance team. Occasionally we pick some transactions for extended AML/CT review. Most transactions do not ever get into the REVIEWING status.

    CANCELLED status is different from CLOSED. The status CLOSED is the outcome of a review (the linked transactions are then released or rejected). CANCELLED means we withdrew the request itself — the linked transactions are not affected by the cancellation.

    Once an RFI is CLOSED, the outcome is applied to the linked transactions: they are released, or rejected with an explanatory rejectCode (see Rejection codes). The RFI itself does not expose the review verdict.

    The feature is also available through the Flash Connect portal. You can perform CoP checks directly from the UI, view your request history, and monitor usage statistics without writing any code. This can be useful for manual verification workflows or for getting familiar with the feature before integrating it into your application via the API.

    Making a CoP Request

    CoP requests are billed based on your agreement with Flash Payments. Contact Flash Payments support for details on pricing.

    Only include the top-level input argument in your GraphQL queries. Including additional types may lead to compatibility issues when schema changes are deployed in production.

    If you're using third-party tools or libraries to construct GraphQL queries, be aware that they may generate unsupported structures. We recommend avoiding GraphQL libraries to reduce this risk.

    Via the secure form — the end user fills in the secure form sent by email (the existing flow). No integration required.

    Both paths emit the same lifecycle webhooks, so you can mix them — for example, automate document collection but let the email form remain as a fallback.

    • RFI statuses — the PENDING → ASSESSING → CLOSED lifecycle and a CANCELLED case.

    • Query RFIs — the rfi and rfis queries.

    • — the answerRfiQuestion mutation, including file uploads.

    • — the declineRfi mutation.

    • — all reply codes and GraphQL errors.

    1. Subscribe to the rfi_created, rfi_assessing, rfi_closed and rfi_canceled webhook events in your Flash Connect webhook settings.

    2. On rfi_created, call the rfi query to load the questions and the linked deposits, withdrawals, or payments.

    3. For each question with answered: false, call with text or files, according to the question's fileUploadOption.

    4. When the last question is answered, the RFI moves to ASSESSING — you will receive rfi_assessing. No further action is required.

    5. When the review is completed, the RFI moves to CLOSED and you will receive rfi_closed. The linked transactions are then released, or rejected with an explanatory rejectCode.

    6. If you cannot supply the requested information, call while the RFI is still PENDING. This will cancel the linked transactions being still under review.

    7. Separately from your responses, we may withdraw an RFI if it is no longer needed. If that happens the RFI moves to CANCELLED and you receive the rfi_cancelled webhook — no response is required, and any linked deposits, withdrawals, or payments are left unaffected.

    CANCELLED is initiated by us, not by you — it means we withdrew the request. It is different from declining (which you initiate, and which closes the RFI as CLOSED and cancels the linked transactions).

    Respond before the RFI's deadline. If the deadline passes without a complete response, the RFI is closed and the linked transactions may be rejected.

    Support data integrity and screening accuracy by standardising physical addresses

    You can cleanse an address via the cleanseAddress mutation or retrieve past requests via the addressCleanserRequest and addressCleanserRequests queries.

    Unlike Adverse Media Search, address cleansing is synchronous — the result is returned in the mutation response. There is no background processing and no webhooks.

    Recommendation and score

    The result is an estimate, not a definitive check. Each cleansed address comes with:

    Field
    Description

    recommendation

    approve — suggests the result can be accepted as-is. review — suggests it should be reviewed before it is used. reject — suggests it should be rejected.

    score

    From 0 to 100. A higher value indicates a closer match. Can be null.

    Pricing

    Address Cleanser is charged per request — 1,000 requests per month are included free of charge. To learn more about pricing, API access, or to enable Address Cleanser for your organisation, reach out to our team.

    The feature is also available through the portal. You can cleanse addresses directly from the UI, view your request history, and monitor usage statistics without writing any code. This can be useful for getting familiar with the feature before integrating it into your application via the API.

    Regular webhooks

    How to setup web hooks for your integration

    Event notifications with webhooks

    Flash Payments uses webhooks to notify your application when a transaction event happens in your account. This includes status update of your withdrawal, clearing of the incoming deposit, and more.

    With webhooks, you can subscribe to the events of interest to trigger a subsequent action within your integration.

    There are two steps to begin using webhooks. Building a custom endpoint on your server and registering it via the FlashConnect settings.

    Building webhook endpoint

    Each time a transaction event happens, we will send a HTTP POST request to your endpoint(s) that are subscribed to that event. The payload with event data is in the JSON format and can be used immediately. Every webhook endpoint must acknowledge the request, and as we strongly advise, verify the webhook signature.

    Acknowledging request

    To acknowledge the receipt of the event, your endpoint must return 2xx HTTP status code. All other response codes, including 3xx codes, indicate that you did not receive the event.

    If we do not receive 200 HTTP status code, we will make up to 3 more request attempts. There is 6, 60 and 600 seconds delay between each delivery attempt respectively. If all request attempts fail, we mark webhook request as failed and will no longer try to deliver it.

    Each webhook request has a flashfx-request-id header with a string that uniquely identifies a webhook event. For example, if there are multiple delivery attempts for the webhook event, each request will hold the same flashfx-request-id. This can be used to check if the webhook event was already processed by your application.

    We advise that you acknowledge webhook request as early as possible.

    Securing the request

    To ensure that webhook was sent by Flash Payments and not a third party, we include the cryptographic signature in each request’s flashfx-signature header.

    Before you can verify a signature, you need to retrieve your endpoint’s secret from webhook settings in the . Each registered endpoint has a unique secret that is used to sign a payload delivered to you on each event. Steps to verify signature:

    1. Extract signature from the request header

    2. Compute HMAC with SHA256 function. Use your endpoint secret as key and JSON payload string as a message.

    3. Compare signature in the header to the computed signature.

    Here is a Node.js pseudo code to generate and compare signatures

    And verifying signature

    Testing your endpoint

    To make sure your webhook endpoint is setup correctly, you can make a test HTTP request from the webhook settings. Click the "Send Test” button. You should receive a dummy request, which will need to be acknowledged the same way as your real webhook requests.

    Then go to the history of the webhook requests and find the test request and response there.

    Webhook requests come with event data. You can see all available event types in the settings. To subscribe, select which events you would like to receive and specify your endpoint. Please note, your endpoint must adhere to the HTTPS protocol for security reasons.

    Institutions

    CRUD queries for Institutions

    Instructing Institution

    Institution entity is a piece of information about the party who instructed you to make the withdrawal. This data is important for compliance within Australia. This is not the sender. If there is no other institution who has instructed this withdrawal, leave this blank and your own details will be used for compliance and auditing purposes.

    Institution explanation

    Creating institutions

    • via Flash Connect (you can copy an ID of an existing Institution).

    • via API by invoking createInstitution mutation.

    • by providing instructingInstitution object into createWithdrawal mutation.

    Convert funds

    Convert between your multi-currency balances

    To convert between, say, AUD and EUR you should:

    1. Request a tradeable quote with applicability: CONVERSION.

    2. Retrieve the quote ID from the response.

    3. Reference the quote ID when creating the conversion.

    Get a tradable quote ID:

    AMS statuses

    Adverse media search request statuses

    1. You submit a search. The request is created and queued. INITIALISED

    2. The background scan starts — web sources are fetched and analysed. INITIALISED → PENDING

    3. PENDING →

      • COMPLETED — the scan finished successfully. Results are available in the results field. Final status.

      • FAILED — the scan could not be completed due to an error. The request is not billable. Final status.

    Happy path

    INITIALISED → PENDING → COMPLETED

    Unhappy path

    INITIALISED → PENDING → FAILED

    Once a request reaches COMPLETED, the results field is populated with an array of AmsWebSearchResult objects. Each result represents a single web article found during the scan and includes:

    Authentication

    Get your access token

    Before doing any other API calls you have to obtain an auth token. It's a standard JWT token carrying the following payload:

    The token lifetime is 4 hours at this time. We might change this value in the future.

    To be more future-proof, it is recommended to parse the token payload and compare current time to the token's expiration time. JavaScript code:

    Please avoid creating multiple Institutions for the same organisation because they are used for compliance reporting and subject to review.

    Before creating or updating an institution we will try to find an existing one by:

    • By instructingInstitution.externalId

    • By instructingInstitution.businessNumber AND instructingInstitution.address.country

    • By instructingInstitution.legalName AND instructingInstitution.address.country

    Find there the login mutation. Execute it to obtain your access token. For example: mutation { login(input: {email: "YOUR_EMAIL" password: "YOUR_PWD"}) {token message} }

  • Click the "HTTP HEADERS" on the bottom and add this: {"authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN"}. Replace the YOUR_TOKEN with the token you just got.

  • Execute any other queries.

  • Here is an example of the login query.

    const bodyJSON = {
      variables: {
        input: {
          email: "you@example.com",
          password: "12345678",
        },
      },
      query: `
    mutation ($input: LoginInput!) {
      login(input: $input) {
        token message code success
      }
    }`,

          "code": "SUCCESS",
          "success": true
        }
      }
    }

    If using API Playground then click the "HTTP HEADERS" on the bottom left and paste there the following (replace the YOUR_TOKEN with the value you have just received form the above mutation):

    Clients that have contractual agreements with more than one subsidiary of Flash Payments, can use the optional field affiliation to control which account to log into.

    The affiliation field accepts one of two constant values - FP_AUS or FP_LUX - which are passed unquoted.

    If the affiliation value does not correspond to an existent account, authentication will fail with code UNREGISTERED even if an account exists with another affiliation and the credentials are correct.

    If the user has multiple affiliations and the field affiliation is omitted, authentication will fail with code NEED_AFFILIATION.

    {
      ...
    
      "iat": 1620967717,
      "exp": 1621054117
    }
    const seconds = JSON.parse(Buffer.from(token.split(".")[1], "base64url")).exp;
    if (Date.now() >= seconds*1000) {
      // get new token
    }

    Tip: Use this handy website to parse the token contents: jwt.io

    Warning! You can't log in more than once per second. This limit is in place to maintain platform stability.

    This login mutation is a subject to change in the future.

    Getting a token

    API Playground
    {
      "authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN"
    }
    {
      "input": { 
        "email": "you@example.com", 
        "password": "12345678",
        "affiliation": FP_AUS 
      }
    }

    We suggest always sending your queries and related data separately using the "QUERY VARIABLES" tab in the or programmatically by .

    Affiliation

    Create sub-clients

    There are two types of sub-clients: company and individual.

    For every company registered as a sub-client, there must be one contact person for individual data submitted. Ideally, the contact person should be a company director or have a similar role. Therefore, if you are creating a sub-client of the company type, we require you to provide extra details:

    • legalName - company legal name

    • businessNumber - company business number (e.g. ABN in Australia)

    If the above fields are not set, the sub-client will be created as individual type.

    The above personal data submission requirements should be as equally followed for the company contact person, with the exception of address property, which can be a company address in this case.

    To create a sub-client, you need to execute the createSubClient mutation as below. You can find the description of each field in the GraphQL API schema.

    Quote

    Quote the current bid and ask for a currency pair and size.

    Reference/indicative quotes

    Consider requesting an indicative/reference quote to understand the current currency trading rates before deciding to take action. Please be aware that market makers are not required to honor indicative quotes.

    Paste this query to the API Playground to request an indicative quote.

    const bodyJSON = {
      variables
    
    query($input: QuoteInput!) {
    
    {
      "input": { 
        "fromCurrency": "AUD",

        }
      }
    }

    Multiple reference/indicative quotes with a single HTTP request

    If you send us too many API request - the system will automatically block you for a short period of time. To avoid that, we recommend sending multiple queries within a single HTTP request.

    Typically, you want to collect several dozen FX prices with a sincle API call. The GraphQL allows sending multiple queries within one HTTP request. Below is an example of such query:

    Here is a JavaScript code to build and send the above query string:

    Please be mindful. Do not fetch the rates you do not need. If there will be hundreds of quote queries within one HTTP request - it might timeout (take longer than 60 seconds).

    In contrast to an indicative quote, a tradable quote is guaranteed by the market maker.

    Paste this query to the GraphQL Playground to request a tradable quote. It is important to consider the expireAt date and time, and preserve the id of a tradable quote for future createPayment and createConversion calls.

    Answer RFI questions

    Submit answers with plaintext or documents

    Use the answerRfiQuestion mutation to submit an answer for a single question on a PENDING RFI. Files are sent inline as base64 in the same call — there is no separate upload step or multipart request.

    What kind of answer to send

    The shape of the answer depends on the question's fileUploadOption:

    fileUploadOption
    What to send
    • Accepted extensions: .pdf, .jpg, .jpeg, .png, .xls, .xlsx. The extension determines the MIME type, so it must match the actual file.

    • Up to 10 files per question.

    For a PREFERRED question.

    For a NONE question, or for a PREFERRED question where the document is not available and you provide the reason instead.

    Each question can be answered once — pick the questions with answered: false. When the last open question is answered, the RFI moves to ASSESSING in the same call (as in the response above) and an webhook is dispatched. No further action is required from you.

    Testing CoP integration

    In the UAT environment, you can simulate different CoP responses by using specific substring keywords in the accountName field and any valid bsb and accountNo values.

    The pattern matching on the accountName field is substring-based and case-insensitive, e.g. using "Test Copimatch", "John copimatch Smith", or "COPIMATCH" will all trigger the same scenario.

    Here is a current list of the testing keywords and the most common response codes. Please note this list can be changed over time.

    Account Name Keyword
    Response Code
    Simulated Account Type

    CoP can be used independently from your payment flows as an account investigation tool. For example, you may want to verify account holder details during onboarding, reconciliation, or dispute resolution, without initiating a payment. A typical investigation flow looks like this:

    1. Collect the account details you wish to verify: BSB, account number, and the expected account holder name.

    2. Call confirmationOfPayee with those details.

    3. Inspect the code in the response.

    A typical future integration flow could look like this:

    1. Before submitting a payment or withdrawal, call confirmationOfPayee with the recipient's account details.

    2. Inspect the code in the response.

    3. If MATCH then proceed with the payment.

    If your account does not have CoP enabled, the API will return:

    Standard applies to CoP requests. Additionally, CoP has its own usage limits. If you exceed them, you will receive the COP_LIMIT_EXCEEDED code.

    Run AMS Request

    Adverse Media Search

    To run a search, execute the adverseMediaSearch mutation as below.

    Search for an individual

    const bodyJSON = {
      variables
    
    mutation($input: AmsRequestInput!) {
      adverseMediaSearch(input: $input) {

          }
        }
      }
    }

    Search for an organisation

    Use accountName instead of individual name fields when screening a business or other non-person entity.

    const bodyJSON = {
      variables: {
        input: {
          accountName: "Acme Pty Ltd",
          country: "AU",
        },
      },
      query: `
    mutation ($input: AmsRequestInput!) {
      adverseMediaSearch(input: $input) {
        success
        code
        message
        amsRequest {
          id
          status
        }
      }
    }`,
    };
    mutation($input: AmsRequestInput!) {
      adverseMediaSearch(input: $input) {
        success
        code
        message
        amsRequest {
          id
          status
        }
      }
    }
    {
      "input": {
        "accountName": "Acme Pty Ltd",
        "country": "AU"
      }
    }

    For individuals, provide firstName and lastName. The optional middleName improves matching accuracy.

    For organisations, use accountName instead. You cannot combine accountName with individual name fields.

    A two-letter ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code (e.g. AU, US, GB). This is required and used to contextualise results — articles where the detected location does not match the supplied country are flagged via locationMismatch.

    The scan runs in the background and may take several minutes. The mutation returns immediately with status: INITIALISED. Use the returned id to poll for results or subscribe to webhook events to be notified when the scan progresses.

    Webhook events fired during a scan:

    Event
    Status

    See for the full lifecycle.

    If you submit a search for the same name and country more than once within the same calendar day, the existing request is returned rather than creating a new one. The code field indicates whether the scan was newly scheduled or is already in progress or complete:

    Meaning

    A free monthly limit applies to AMS requests. Once reached, success: false is returned with code: LIMIT_EXCEEDED. Contact support to increase your limit.

    Query RFIs

    Retrieve your RFIs and their questions

    Use the rfi query with the id from the rfi_created webhook to load the questions and the linked transactions. The query returns null if the RFI does not exist or does not belong to you.

    Query AMS requests

    Use the amsRequest query with the id returned from the adverseMediaSearch mutation to check the status of a scan or retrieve its results.

    Bank information

    Ensuring bank details are correct

    To validate BSB, BIC (aka SWIFT code) or IBAN use the bankInfo query.

    The below sample queries will return null if the BSB, BIC, IBAN is not found.

    You can start with testing CoP requests in the API Playground. Log in with your UAT credentials and use the confirmationOfPayee mutation.

    Integration Examples

    CoP as a standalone investigation tool

    Each CoP request is logged and available in your FlashConnect request history, making it easy to maintain an audit trail of your verification checks.

    CoP as a part of your payment integration flow

    While CoP is fully functional on our platform, and the adoption among Australian financial institutions is growing, the Australian CoP coverage is currently limited.

    This means a significant portion of accounts may return ACCOUNT_NOT_FOUND or COP_PLATFORM_ERROR not because the details are wrong, but because the receiving institution does not yet fully participate in CoP.

    Additionally, financial institutions store account holder names in varying formats (e.g., abbreviated names, reordered words, special characters). The current matching algorithm used by the Australian Payments Plus (AP+) relies on basic string similarity, which can produce false-negative NOT_MATCH results for accounts that are, in fact, correct.

    For this reason, we currently recommend using CoP as a standalone verification tool rather than as a blocking step in your payment flow.

    CoP is advisory. The response does not block payments automatically. It is your responsibility to act on the result codes appropriately for your use case.

    Error Handling

    When the response code is COP_PLATFORM_ERROR, it may indicate that the account holder has opted out of CoP verification. The general recommendation is to proceed with the payment.

    This action creates a real account number. If you ever submit fake, unreal, testing, or incorrect data - you will be immediately blocked from Flash Payments services.

    Please add all possible precautions, processes, staff training, warning messages, and validation checks to your system(s) before creating a sub-client.

    Please follow our latest requirements for the proper sub-client data submission:

    1. Provide proper firstName , middleName, and lastName Please note that including the accurate middleName is essential for the account name matching capability of the Australian New Payments Platform (NPP) real-time digital payment network.

    2. Provide proper mobile number

    3. Provide proper dob : the person must be under 65 years of age

    4. Provide proper residential address including unit and street number. The sub-client address should correspond to your approved use case from the contract agreement. By default, you can only create local Australian sub-clients with an adequate address.street field provided. Any non-Australian entities will undergo extended due diligence based on their location and industry relevance for Flash Payments.

    5. Provide proper idDoc (type, docNumber, issuer (optional), issueDate (optional), expiryDate (optional), and country ) based on the sub-client contact person's address. For Australian residents, either a driver’s license or a passport is accepted. For non-Australian residents, only a passport is accepted as a document type.

    6. Sometimes, we ask our partners to provide “instructing institution” information, but only if you are creating this VAN on behalf of another financial institution. More about institutions . You may provide the ID of the already created institution via the field instructingInstitutionId or as a full object via the instructingInstitution field.

    Disable, Activate and Update sub-clients

    You can disable and activate sub-clients. Deposits sent to a disabled sub-client will no longer be booked against your balance.

    Disabling a sub-client

    const bodyJSON = {
      variables
    
    mutation($input: ID!) {
    
    { 
       "input": "606128f24bf29139b2cf74ef"

            "status": "DISABLED"
          }
        }
      }
    }

    Activating a sub-client

    const bodyJSON = {
      variables
    
    mutation($input: ID!) {
    
    { 
       "input": "606128f24bf29139b2cf74ef"
    }
    {
      "data": {
        "activateSubClient": {

          "code": "SUCCESS",

            "status": "ACTIVE"
          }
        }
      }
    }

    Updating sub-clients

    At this point, you can only update the externalId , address and postalAddress properties because each sub-client has a set of linked domestic and international Virtual Account Numbers to send and receive funds.

    Auto receive funds

    Automatically receive and convert funds from other countries and currencies

    Some customers can automatically receive funds from overseas. Meaning, if we detect an overseas deposit to the Flash Payments controlled bank account(s) then we can automatically create an inbound payment, convert funds, and top up your Flash Payments balance with AUD.

    Please note that funds must be transferred from a bank account registered under your company name. If a virtual Flash sub-account is used as the beneficiary, the transfer should be made from an account in your sub-client’s name. Whenever a sub-client record is involved in the transaction, their full real-world address is always required. For your local Australian sub-clients, please ensure all address components are provided when adding a sub-client to our system. In some cases, but not always, the payment must include the specific payment reference we provide. See below for more details.

    Here is how it looks step by step.

    1. We would need to enable the foreign currency auto-receiving feature for you.

    2. You, or your Sub-client, would have a special bank account in, say, SEPA zone. Find the details below.

      • The account number and payment reference depends on the currency and country you wish to deposit to. E.g. the EUR currency account is usually a British IBAN (starts with "GB").

    3. You, or your , would deposit money to it. Make sure to submit the exact payment reference we told you! Otherwise, your funds will be returned.

    4. The Flash Payments would detect the account funding event and automatically create a EUR->AUD payment for you.

    5. You would receive at least two webhook notifications - payment_created and payment_complete.

    6. Your Flash Payments AUD balance would increase accordingly.

    To find which foreign currency bank account you need to deposit into, please visit and locate the list of supported inbound currencies and their corresponding bank account numbers. It is referred to as the “Funding Accounts” throughout the user interface.

    To find out the Funding Accounts via API please use the fundingAccounts query.

    You should deposit your foreign currency to one of the following master accounts:

    Your should deposit their foreign currency to one of the follwing virtual sub-accounts:

    Cleanse an address

    Address Cleanser

    To cleanse an address, execute the cleanseAddress mutation as below. The result is returned synchronously — no polling or webhooks are required.

    const bodyJSON = {
      variables
    
    fragment AddressParts on Address { building streetNo street suburb state postcode country }

        "street": "33 effingham st, sth launceston 7249",
        "country": "AU"
      }
    }
    {
      "data": {

            "score": 97.1
          }
        }
      }
    }

    originalAddress and cleansedAddress are both of type Address, so the examples above declare a reusable — fragment AddressParts on Address { ... } — and spread it into both with ...AddressParts instead of repeating the field list.

    Address — input

    The standard AddressInput type is used:

    Field
    Description

    Addresses from most countries worldwide are supported.

    Optional fields

    Only street and country are required. The other components — building, streetNo, suburb, state, postcode — are optional: you can either supply them separately, or fold them into street as a single free-form string (e.g. "Unit 5, 33 Effingham St, South Launceston TAS 7249").

    Either way, originalAddress keeps your input exactly as you sent it.

    Result — recommendation and score

    The result is an estimate, not a definitive check. Inspect recommendation (approve, review, reject) and score (0 to 100, higher is a closer match) on the returned addressRequest to decide how to treat the cleansed address. See the overview for details.

    Response codes

    Code
    Meaning

    Deduplication

    If you submit the same address more than once within the same calendar day, the existing request is returned rather than creating a new one, with code: ALREADY_CLEANSED. You are billed at most once per day for the same address.

    Monthly request limit

    1,000 requests per month are included free of charge. Once reached, success: false is returned with code: LIMIT_EXCEEDED. Contact support to upgrade your account.

    Query Address Cleanser requests

    Retrieving a single Address Cleanser request

    Use the addressCleanserRequest query with the id returned from the cleanseAddress mutation.

    const bodyJSON = {
      variables
    
    query($id: ID!) {
      addressCleanserRequest(id: $id) {
        id

    Filtering Address Cleanser requests

    Use the input parameter to narrow results by recommendation or date range.

    Available filter fields on AddressCleanserQueryInput:

    Field
    Description

    Query sub-clients

    Account members

    Retrieve the members of your client account

    The read-only members query returns a list of registered users for your client account, including their contact details, roles, access controls, and account status. This provides a programmatic way to retrieve the list of your account users and their information, which can otherwise be obtained via the Flash Connect portal.

    The output is always limited to your client account, meaning you can only see your own members.

    MembersQueryInput accepts three optional list filters: status

    ,

    firstName

    Filter by first name — case insensitive, partial match

    middleName

    Filter by middle name — case insensitive, partial match

    lastName

    Filter by last name — case insensitive, partial match

    accountName

    Filter by business name — case insensitive, partial match

    country

    Filter by two-letter ISO country code

    Note that you must have enough AUD balance to make an outbound AUD payment.

    }

    Recipient - recipient object or recipientId

    You can either pre-create recipients and provide us with the recipientId or submit a valid recipient object directly to createPayment as shown in the above example. We recommend the latter where possible, as you won’t need to send an extra HTTP request. Please note that a new recipient record won’t be created in this case.

    Just like submitting recipient information, you can either and provide us with the senderId or directly submit a valid sender object to createPayment as shown in the above example. Please note that a new sender record won’t be created in the latter case. Alternatively, if your account is configured to send funds on behalf of your , you may provide us with the subClientId and the FX payment created will be linked to that sub-client. In this case the sub-client will be used as the sender and reported to the government.

    To use subClientId as the sender for your withdrawal, please execute the createPayment mutation as below.

    If your company is the ultimate sender for an FX payment, you can skip both the senderId and subClientId. In this situation, we will use your company’s Flash account as the sender for the payment. Please note that a new sender record will not be created in this case.

    Please execute the following createPayment mutation to use your company's Flash account details as sender.

    We recommend against continuous polling for payment status changes. Instead, please use callbackUri.

    The optional callbackUri will be invoked several times during the processing of a payment. These callbacks will usually occur soon (within several seconds) after the initial create payment call - but may be delayed in some cases. The example JSON payloads can be found on the .

    Please note that toAmount (or fromAmount) and other fluctuating payment properties can change during payment execution.

    Withdraw funds

    Send money from your Flash Payments balances to Australian bank accounts or internationally per your approved use case.

    To make a withdrawal, you need to execute the createWithdrawal mutation as below.

    Arbitrary text, which will be seen in the ultimate recipient's bank statement. E.g. "invoice #123". Will be eventually truncated to 18 ASCII chars if delivered via Australia's old (DE, Direct Entry) payment system. However, if you choose to use the real-time NPP network, then the maximum length is

    You can either pre-create recipients and provide us with the recipientId or submit a valid recipient object directly to createWithdrawal as shown in the above example. We recommend the latter where possible, as you won’t need to send an extra HTTP request. Please note that a new recipient record won’t be created in this case.

    Just like submitting recipient information, you can either pre-create a sender and provide us with the senderId or directly submit a valid sender object to createWithdrawal as shown in the above example. Please note that a new sender record won’t be created in the latter case. Alternatively, if your account is configured to disburse funds on behalf of your sub-clients, you may provide us with the subClientId and the withdrawal created will be linked to that sub-client. In this case the sub-client will be used as the sender and reported to the government.

    To use subClientId as the sender for your withdrawal, please execute the createWithdrawal mutation as below.

    If your company is the ultimate sender for a withdrawal, you can skip both the senderId (or sender object) and subClientId. In this situation, we will use your company’s Flash account as the sender for the transaction. Please note that a new sender record will not be created in this case.

    An organisation that instructed you to make a withdrawal. This data is mandatory if you submit this withdrawal on behalf of another financial institution.

    This optional field refers to an existing Institution that was created earlier in the Flash Connect interface or via this API.

    Optional field that allows you to provide Institution details without pre-creating one. Once passed, Flash Payments will create the Institution for you. Before creating an institution, we will try to find an existing one:

    • By instructingInstitution.externalId if present.

    • By instructingInstitution.businessNumber AND instructingInstitution.address.country

    We recommend against continuous polling for withdrawal status changes. Instead, please use callbackUri.

    The optional callbackUri will be invoked several times during the processing of a withdrawal. These callbacks will usually occur soon (within several seconds) after the initial create withdrawal call - but may be delayed in some cases. The example JSON payloads can be found on the Webhooks page.

      "input": "6b04c62ec0bf606bf216ae21"
    }

    Query multiple recipients

    Create a recipient

    In addresses the suburb field is an Australian suburb. For other countries you should put the city (e.g. Manila or London) or any other small administrative area name.

    If you find it technically challenging to submit all components of the recipients’s address, we would appreciate it if you could at least collect the recipients’s country along with a complete address string that includes the postcode and put them into the country and street fields, respectively. In this case, you can skip the postcode, suburb, and state fields, and the recipient record will still be created.

    Please note that the street field is mandatory for Australian addresses.

    Create an Individual recipient

    Create a Company recipient

    Update recipient

    Please note the recipient'saccountIdTypecan't be changed

    Query single sender

    Query multiple senders

    Create a sender

    In addresses the suburb field is an Australian suburb. For other countries you should put the city (e.g. Manila or London) or any other small administrative area name.

    If you find it technically challenging to submit all components of the sender’s address, we would appreciate it if you could at least collect the sender’s country along with a complete address string that includes the postcode and put them into the country and street fields, respectively. In this case, you can skip the postcode, suburb, and state

    The date of birth (dob) is not mandatory. However, if it is not provided, your transactions may undergo additional compliance reviews, which can lead to longer processing times—potentially several hours or days instead of seconds. Please also be aware that this may result in additional fees to cover the extra effort involved.

    Create an Individual sender

    Create a Company sender

    Update sender

    Delete sender

    Webhooks

    Two types of the webhooks

    The primary triggers for all webhooks are status changes in payments, withdrawals, deposits, or conversions. For example, a webhook is sent when a withdrawal status changes from PENDING to CONFIRMED.

    There are two types of webhooks in Flash Payments.

    • Regular webhooks - a URL would need to be saved to your FlashConnect settings. Supports all types of events.

      • You can browse the history of all the webhook HTTP requests and your server responses, their JSON bodies and headers.

      • If there is no response we will show you what exactly the problem is: DNS issue, networking issue, 5XX response, etc.

      • You can receive webhooks when a deposit lands to your Virtual Account Number (VAN).

    • - you would need to provide a callback URL per each payment/withdrawal/conversion while creating them.

    The webhooks HTTP POST calls will follow all the (3XX codes).

    All webhook HTTP requests carry a cryptographic signature. and do it slightly different though.

    Each request will contain at least these 4 headers:

    All webhook HTTP requests would be coming from these IP addresses:

    • UAT environment: 52.64.185.170 and 13.210.129.208

    • Production environment: 52.62.138.234 and 52.65.3.195

    API change log

    History of changes to this API schema

    2026-06-17

    Added

    New RFI status CANCELLED and a new rfi_cancelled webhook event.

    Our compliance team can now withdraw their request for information when it is no longer needed — the RFI moves to CANCELLED, you are notified by email and webhook, no response is required, and any linked deposits, withdrawals, or payments are left unaffected.

    New Address Cleanser API. You can now validate and standardise physical addresses against multiple geocoding providers directly via the API — useful before processing payments and for keeping your address data consistent.

    • New mutation — submits an address for cleansing. The result is returned synchronously with a suggested recommendation (approve, review, reject) and a score.

    • New and queries — retrieve your past requests with optional filters by recommendation and date range.

    Charged per request — 1,000 requests per month are free. Please contact support to have this API enabled for your account.

    New API. When our compliance review flags one of your transactions, we raise an RFI — you can now receive, answer, and decline RFIs programmatically instead of (or alongside) the secure form sent by email.

    • New and queries — retrieve your RFIs with optional filters by status and date range.

    • New mutation — answers a single RFI question with text and/or documents. Files are sent inline as base64; no separate upload step.

    • New mutation — declines an RFI when you cannot provide the requested information.

    The RFI API is available to all clients — no enablement step is required.

    New query. You can now programmatically retrieve the users registered on your client account — their contact details, roles, access controls and statuses — information previously only available via the Flash Connect portal.

    • Optional filters: status, roles, access. A member matches if it holds at least one of the listed values.

    • Results are always scoped to your own client account.

    New Adverse Media Search (AMS) API. You can now screen individuals and organisations against web-based adverse media sources directly via the API.

    • New mutation — submits a search for an individual or organisation. The scan runs in the background; use the returned id to track progress.

    • New and queries — retrieves your AMS requests with optional filters by status, date range, name, and country.

    • Four new : ams_initialised, ams_pending

    Please contact support to have this API enabled for your account.

    New mutation. Confirmation of Payee (CoP) is a name-verification service for Australian domestic accounts. You can use it to check whether the recipient's name matches the account details held by their financial institution. The service currently supports Australian BSB accounts.

    Two new objects to mutation. You can change a sub-client's address and postalAddress. The updated address will be re-verified, so please make sure to include all its components, even if some fields, like the country, remain unchanged.

    New rail and railService properties to Withdrawal and Deposit payloads. You can now see exactly which payment infrastructure (such as NPP or BECS) and specific schemes (such as NPP IFTI) are used to route your transactions.

    New currnecy property to the StatementQueryInput, which allows you to retrieve any currency balance, not just the default AUD.

    New eventScheduledAt property to all payloads.

    New sub-client (aka Virtual Account Number, VAN) .

    Previously a sub-client could be in 2 statuses: ACTIVE and DEACTIVATED.

    Now there are 6: INITIATED, ACTIVE, UNAPPROVED, DEACTIVATED, FAILED_KYC, DISABLED.

    A set of new webhook events become available. See . A webhook is sent when a sub-client status gets changed.

    A new rejectCode when we your payout - SOURCE_OF_FUNDS_INADEQUATE. You'll receive it if we sent you an RFI (request for information) but your response contained a low quality data.

    Please note, that a sibling property statusMessage will be hand crafted so that you know what exactly is wrong with your RFI reply (within the legal bounds). Please use the text to improve your KYC processes.

    A new rejectCode when we your payout - DATA_ENQUIRY_RESPONSE_INADEQUATE. You'll receive it if we sent you an RFI (request for information) but your response contained a low quality data.

    Please note, that a sibling property statusMessage will be hand crafted so that you know what exactly is wrong with your RFI reply (within the legal bounds). Please use the text to improve your KYC processes.

    The FX Payments createPayment can accept sender and recipient as JSON objects now too.

    This means that when you need to do an orchestrated FX payment you need to submit only one HTTP request (createPayment) instead of 3 (createSender, createRecipient, and createPayment).

    A high demand long awaited feature. You don't need to pre-create senders/recipients before submitting a payout using createWithdrawal .

    This means that when you need to do a remittance payment (aka payout) you need to submit only one HTTP request (createWithdrawal) instead of 3 (createSender, createRecipient, and createWithdrawal).

    Example:

    Enum WithdrawalReason is renamed to TransactionReason. The reason field inside CreateWithdrawalInput and Withdrawal type now uses TransactionReason instead of WithdrawalReason.

    The validation logic for the bic field in the createRecipient mutation has been relaxed:

    • When accountIdType is set to IBAN, BSB, or PAYID, the bic field is not required any more.

    • When accountIdType is set to ABA

    Three new fields to the Withdrawal type:

    • clearedAt - the timestamp when the withdrawal become CONFIRMED.

    • rejectedAt - the timestamp when the it was rejected by Flash Payments. See the rejectCode and statusMessage fields to understand the rejection reason.

    The new optional field called reason was added to the createWithdrawal mutation and Withdrawal type.

    If you have a payment/transaction/payout purpose - you must submit it to us via the API. See all the possible purpose codes (aka reason values) in the (click the link in the header of this website), look inside the "docs" by the word "reason". You need to find the GraphQL enum called WithdrawalReason.

    An optional affiliation field has been added to the login mutation. This field accepts the Affiliation enum values FP_AUS or FP_LUX, allowing users to specify which Flash Payments subsidiary account to access when multiple contractual agreements exist. It is only required if your have more than one such agreement with us.

    Removed depositDetails query as deprecated and non-functioning since March 2024.

    Improved validation rules for the following mutations: , , , , , and Affected fields: idDoc.docNumber idDoc.issuer legalName businessNumber legalName externalId. These fields allow only the ASCII characters now.

    Also, the first, last, and middle names are limited to 75 chars now.

    Also, FQDN-like names will be rejected. Examples: "Aaron x.com", "Ben.eu", "Visit as at URL:example.com/about", etc.

    New fields have been added to the , , and mutations. You can now provide idDoc.country, idDoc.issueDate, and idDoc.expiryDate. The idDoc.issuer field now only stores additional information about the issuer, while idDoc.country holds the country code of the country that issued the document. To avoid creating a breaking change, we currently allow you to provide idDoc.country and/or idDoc.issuer. In the future, we plan to make idDoc.country a required field.

    New mutation. You can change a sub-client's externalId now, but nothing else.

    New the feature.

    • New mutation createConversion. New queries conversion and conversions.

    • The FromCurrency enum used to have only one item AUD. Now there are 8: AUD CAD CHF EUR GBP NZD SGD USD.

    The bankInfo was not returning information about BICs and IBANs. It works now.

    Improved validation of recipient, sender, withdrawal, institution related mutations. From now on email, companyName, legalName, businessNumber, externalReference must include only the ASCII characters.

    Removed AccountIdType.PH_CASH, Recipient.phCashoutNetwork with RecipientInput.phCashoutNetwork and the corresponding enum type PhCashoutNetwork from the GraphQL schema. These were not working for more than a year.

    Removed AccountIdType.RIPPLE, Recipient.rippleAddress with Recipient.destTag from the GraphQL schema. These were deprecated 2.5 years ago.

    Removed Sender.isRipple and CurrencyIso3.XRP from the GraphQL schema. These were deprecated 2.5 years ago.

    New introduced for rejected (aka cancelled) withdrawals. When withdrawals you can clearly see why using the new rejectCode and statusMessage. Available in the Withdrawal type and sent to your application via the webhook.

    Improved to respond with appropriate error message when trying to change the recipient's accountIdType which is not allowed by design.

    Added to the CreateWithdrawalInput.

    • Fields acceptingInstructionInstitutionSenderId and acceptingMoneyInstitutionSenderId were removed from the CreateWithdrawalInput.

    • Instead instructingInstitutionId was added. (A new API for creating "institutions" is coming soon, but at the moment they can be created via the Flash Connect.)

    • query.

      • This query returns the same data as the Download CSV button on the Account Statement page of the . It explains every change of you primary balance.

      • Currently it returns exactly 1 day of data. We plan to make date range selection more flexible in the future.

    • Changed links from to domain. Old domain will continue working unit future notice.

    • Our system always allowed accountNo to have letter. However, our API forced digits only. So, from now on, when you use createRecipient, your accountNo can have both letters and digits.

    • Improved mobile phone validation. Now if mobile starts with "00" it's treated as if it starts with "+".

    • Quote size accepts positive numbers only.

    • The recipient.mobile and sender.mobile can accept only valid international phone numbers.

    • Added the withdrawal_pending . Invoked after the transaction is sent to the recipient bank for processing.

    • Added for the withdrawal_pending .

    • idempotencyKey to createPayment input.

    • idempotencyKey to createWithdrawal input.

    • Fixed the withdrawal_reviewing . It was never sent before even though declared on the Flash Connect website.

    • Added for the withdrawal_reviewing .

    • Removed the auto-creation of id for embedded senders and recipients. This means that if you (or FlashFX system) have created withdrawals and payments without explicitly providing sender or recipient ID then from now on the sender.id or recipient.id will be null. But, if you create payments or withdrawals via this API then you will always have payment.sender.id or withdrwal.recipient.id.

    • Missing expireAt property to the Quote object returned by the quote query.

    • New REVIEWING status to deposit and withdrawal status enum.

      • REVIEWING : deposit/withdrawal is being internally checked by our compliance team before proceeding.

    • New event type: deposit_initiated to notify that we received a deposit but not yet cleared it.

      • Previously only the deposit_cleared was sent and customers had no idea we are holding (reviewing) the deposit.

    • New item in deposit and related webhooks:

      • recipient - deposit recipient information as specified by deposit sender for this transaction:

    • Additional validation for dob field introduced for Senders, Recipients and Sub-clients to enforce the data is entered in YYYY-MM-DD format. The field will also allow for only the data after 1900-01-01 and individuals of 18 years of age or older.

    • Added validation of address fields. From now on, any address submitted as a part of any transaction should only include ASCII characters.

    • Added deposit.sender.accountName so that you can query who deposited money to your Virtual Account Number (VAN).

    • Additional validation for lastName, middleName and firstName introduced allowing only for latin alphabetical characters and special symbols:

    • FundingAccount type has been extended to include all deposit details you need to bring money to Australia. Your account address can now be retrieved using accountAddress property along with name and address fields which identify the accepting financial institution associated with your account.

    • lastName and firstName fields of Sender and Recipient objects can now be one symbol long to allow for initials. Please note that such single symbols have to be alphabetic.

    • Occasionally Payment objects do not have sender or recipient properties. Thus these properties are now marked at "not required" (exclamation mark was removed) when querying payments.

    • We have added rate limiting. You can receive HTTP 429 error code and get temporary blocked if abusing the API too much.

    • Removed XRP currency form the list of supported currencies.

    • While creating sub-clients the address of the person/company was not required. It was a bug which was fixed. To create a sub-client you would also need their: street address, suburb/city, state/region, postcode, and country.

    • Allow accountNo to be 4 digits long. Some old Japanese bank accounts could be just 4 digits.

    • The ability to query deposits, withdrawals, payments by the associated sub-client (subClientId).

    • The payments can also have sub-clients now. Added the Payment.subClient field.

    • The totalFee property to both Deposit and Withdrawal types as well as webhook payloads.

    • The bankInfo reference query. You can now validate your BSB for existence, check if we support your BIC, and retrieve BIC (aka SWIFT code) by IBAN.

    • The fundingAccounts and SubClient.fundingAccounts queries. It returns international bank account numbers you can deposit in order to bring money to Australia. See for more details.

    • The senderId was always required when creating withdrawals via createWithdrawal. But now, if you provided the subClientId and didn't provide the senderId the sub-client becomes the sender, and will be reported to the government as the sender. However, you still must provide the senderId if your sub-client moves funds for other people/companies.

    • Replaced docIssuer, docType and docNumber fields from CreateSubClientInput with idDoc nested field instead.

    • RecipientAccountIdType was fully duplicating the AccountIdType. Replace the former with the latter. This might break your auto-generated code in strongly typed languages. But won't change any API queries or responses. So, this change is not considered to be a breaking.

    • Added ability to disable and activate sub-clients

      • mutation disableSubClient(id: ID!): MutateSubClientReply

      • mutation activateSubClient(id: ID!): MutateSubClientReply

    • Added deposit queries

      • query deposits(input: DepositQueryInput): [Deposit]

      • query deposit(id: ID!): Deposit

    These types and fields were never used by anyone for couple of years.

    • Removed enum DepositMechanism.

    • PaymentInput and ConfirmPaymentInput fields:

    • New item in BsbDepositDetails

      • accountName - Australian account name.

    • New item in Withdrawal

    • New items in both query type and mutation input Senders.

      • legalName

      • tradingAsName

    • Fixed typo in RecipientQueryInput field name. snaps -> cnaps

    • New compliance-related fields to the CreateWithdrawalInput input:

      • acceptingMoneyInstitutionSenderId - you must pre-create this Sender and submit every time if you are not the FI who collected the money for this withdrawal.

    • Fixed typo in the WithdrawalStatus enum item. INITIALISING -> INITIALISED

    • callbackUri to Payment, Withdrawal, CreateWithdrawalInput. Now you can query the callback/webhook URI you have supplied earlier. Also, this allows you to receive webhooks when you create a withdrawal (aka local payout).

    • New items in RecipientQueryInput. This means that recipients can be searched by:

      • firstName

      • lastName

    • Introduced Withdrawals - send money from your account (FlashFX digital wallet) to local banks.

      • query withdrawal(id: ID): Withdrawal

      • query withdrawals(input: WithdrawalQueryInput): [Withdrawal]

    • Removed the unused enum PaymentType. It has no sense and was deprecated a year ago.

      • Simultaneously removed properties Payment.paymentType, PaymentQueryInput.paymentTypes, PaymentInput.paymentType.

    Three new webhook events: rfi_created, rfi_assessing, rfi_closed. Dispatched for every RFI regardless of whether it is answered via the API or via the email form.
