Payout Composite

Payout Composite

Check the composite API to make a payout using a single API call.

Normally, you would need to:

  1. Create a contact.
  2. Create a fund account.
  3. Make a payout.

The composite API allows you to make a payout using a single API call. This reduces the number of calls you would otherwise need to make to create a payout. The composite API also gives you the flexibility to either create a new contact and fund account or use existing contact and fund account details (contact_id and fund_account_id) to make a payout.

Watch Out!
No OTP authorization is required when creating a payout using APIs.

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

Run in Postman

Improve Payout Processing Time🔗

We recommend that you create the contact and fund account before making a payout. Doing this helps you improve payout processing time.

You can continue to use the contact and fund account details (instead of IDs) in the composite API to make payouts. Doing this will not create duplicate contacts or fund accounts in your system.
