Speedy payouts to accounts in Russian banks (via BESP)

You can make speedy payouts to accounts in Russian banks — through the BESP system. A speedy payout takes place within an hour, a regular one — from 2 hours to 1 banking day (the term of crediting depends on the recipient's bank).

The tariffs for regular and speedy payouts differ and are fixed in the agreement with Bank 131.

How to enable

Sign an agreement with Bank 131 for making payouts, indicate that you want to make payouts through BESP. If the agreement already exists, but there are no payouts through BESP in it, contact our manager.

How to make a payout via BESP

In the payout request in the BankAccountRU, in the is_fast field, pass the value true, and your payout will be sent through BESP.

If you do not specify this parameter, a regular payout will be sent.

An example of an object with payout through BESP

    "bank_account": {
        "system_type": "ru",
        "ru": {
            "bik": "044525971",
            "account": "40817810100000270411",
            "full_name": "Ivanov Ivan Ivanovich",
            "description": "Wire for agreement № 5015553111 Ivanov Ivan Ivanovich VAT exempt",
            "is_fast": "true"
        }
    }

What can go wrong

• If you send a payout in a way that is not in your agreement with Bank 131, the payout will not go through. The response be received as a routing_internal_error.
• If you send a speedy payout to a bank that is not connected to the BESP system, the payout will be sent as regular, but the Bank will charge the commission set for a speedy payout.

Payout refund

The payout you sent to a Russian bank account may be refunded. In this case, you will get a refund within 5 days.
