Generate a Virtual Account
Alfred’s virtual accounts are local depository accounts that allow businesses to collect payments in local currencies across Latin America. These accounts provide fast, transparent, and compliant settlement rails — enabling businesses to operate locally without setting up local entities.
Once you have created a customer, the moment they complete their KYC and are approved - a virtual account will automatically be generated in the available geographies. Once approved, you can consult to GET Retrieve Virtual Account with the customerID . This will consult the Virtual account information generated for that customer.
In order to receive deposits into alfred's generated virtual accounts you must register a "liquidation address,” this is a permanent payment route which ties an alfred Virtual account to a blockchain address. If the destination payment rail is any of our supported chains, the funds are promptly sent upon receipt.
