Close a bank account

This guide will show you how to close a bank account via the API. It covers all types of bank accounts you can currently create on the Griffin platform.

Commission

Commission is an incentive that Griffin pays to you based on the balances that your customers hold with Griffin. We pay this to our customers to give a share of the value that we earn on deposits held, and to incentivise our customers to grow their deposit base with us. Commission behaves a lot like interest except that commission is not paid to the owner of the account, but to the Griffin customer that controls the account.

Create a webhook

An event occurs when the state of an API resource changes. For example, a transaction-created event occurs whenever funds are deposited or withdrawn from a Griffin bank account.

Get started with the API

Welcome to the Griffin API! This guide will take you through creating an API key and introduce some concepts you need to get started.
