Payments

Smart Collect Tpv

Smart Collect with TPV

Create and manage virtual accounts. Fetch payment details using Razorpay Smart Collect TPV APIs.

Razorpay Smart Collect enables you to create virtual accounts to accept large payments from your customers in the form of bank transfers via NEFT, RTGS and IMPS.

Virtual accounts are similar to bank accounts wherein customers can transfer payments. You can create, retrieve and close virtual accounts using the Smart Collect APIs.

The virtual account response contains attributes such as id, customer_id and a field, receivers. This is an array that defines what receivers are available for the virtual account.

For example, if the receiver.types array of the original request contained bank_account, then the response will contain a receivers array which gives details of that bank_account receiver such as account number, IFSC and more.

You can try out our APIs on the Razorpay Postman Public Workspace.
