Create a transfer request

POST: /amsin/api/v1/business/fund/createTransfer

Signature required

The Partner can use this API to move money from one Wallet Account (WA) to another WA.

The transfer process is asynchronous. WorldFirst responds to the Partner that the transfer request is being processed, rather than the final result of the transfer. You can call the inquiryTransfer API to query the transfer result. WorldFirst notifies the transfer result with the notifyTransfer interface.

Result processing logic

After making an API request, WorldFirst responds to the Partner with the result of the API call. The possible responses for result.resultStatus are:

Result status

Description

S

This indicates the API call succeeded.

  • This result status indicates that WorldFirst accepts the transfer request and is processing the transfer.
  • For the result of the transfer, wait for the notification from the notifyTransfer interface. If no result from notifyTransfer is received within 20 minutes, call inquiryTransfer to inquire about the transfer result. 

F

This indicates the API call failed. For more information on why the call failed, see result.resultCode.

U

This indicates the API call result is unknown.

  • Best practice: Query the result of the transfer with the inquiryTransfer interface.
