Close a bank account

This guide will show you how to close a bank account via the API. It covers all types of bank accounts you can currently create on the Griffin platform. Right now, this information only applies to sandbox mode.

Create a webhook

An event occurs when the state of an API resource changes. For example, a transaction-created event occurs whenever funds are deposited or withdrawn from a Griffin bank account.

Get started with the API

Welcome to the Griffin API! This guide will take you through creating an API key and introduce some concepts you need to get started.

Interest

Interest is money that you earn on your funds that you hold with Griffin. It is based on the amount of money you hold with us and the interest rate on the account that holds the funds.

Invite your team

This guide will show you how to invite new users to your organisation.

Make a payment

This guide will walk you through making a payment to a UK bank account. Payment processing is a multi-step process which requires interacting with several resource types. Learn about payments, transactions, submissions and admissions here

Manage pooled account members

This guide will show you how to add and remove members of a pooled safeguarding or pooled client money account. You’ll need to add members when you first set up the account. You’ll also need to confirm that the membership is up-to-date at least once every 24 hours while the account is open.

Onboard your customers

This guide will show you how to integrate your applications with Verify, our onboarding product for running automated KYC/KYB checks on your customers. This is also the first step for opening bank accounts for your customers with Griffin. Learn more about Verify.

Open a client money account

A client money account is for managing your customers' funds. Only firms regulated under CASS (the FCA's Client Assets Sourcebook) can open client money accounts. You can choose to open a dedicated account for each of your customers, or a pooled account for holding funds from multiple customers. Learn more about bank accounts.

Open a safeguarding account

A safeguarding account is for managing your customers funds. Only firms regulated as Electronic money institutions (EMIs) and payments institutions (PIs) in the UK can open safeguarding accounts. You can choose to open a dedicated account for each of your customers, or a pooled account for holding funds from multiple customers. Learn more about bank accounts.

Open a savings account

A savings account enables you to offer savings products to your customers. Learn more about savings accounts.

Open an operational account

An operational account is a bank account for managing your organisation's own funds. Learn more about bank accounts.

Receive a payment

Griffin automatically receives payments on your behalf, so there are no actions you need to take, but you can track their progress. We recommend creating a webhook in order to receive notifications of new inbound payments and to track their status through admissions.

Reliance onboarding

The reliance model allows you to carry out onboarding and complete all due diligence on your customers using your own tools and then provide us with the necessary information we require.
