If the transferred funds are paid out abroad, the Bank will notify the payment partner of the successful payout completion. The payment partner must be able to correctly process this notification. If needed, the payment partner can contact the Bank manager and deactivate this notification.
API for processing the successful payout notification
If the transferred funds cannot be paid out abroad for any reason or the sender decided to revoke the transfer, the payment is refunded.
Only the sender can initiate the refund by applying to the payment partner that performed the transfer.
