Direct Bank Transfer

ALTERNATIVE — Some programs pay to bank directly

If a network pays directly to a bank, use the verified bank destination you add in the Payment Destinations section below.

  • Add the bank account only after it is verified
  • Keep account numbers, IBANs, and SWIFT codes out of the public dashboard
  • Store only masked destination hints in this UI
  • Use the network's payout settings page for the real transfer details

Use a masked destination label here, then enter the real bank details only inside the payout network that needs them.
