Availability
These endpoints provide limited functionality. Check with Galileo to verify whether it is supported by your sponsor bank.

Use the following endpoints to create and manage wire transfers:

See Creating a Wire Transfer for step-by-step guidance.

Create Wire Transaction

(POST /createWireTransaction)

Use the Create Wire Transaction endpoint to initiate a wire transfer to a remote bank account. Prior to using this endpoint, you must create an account to receive the wire using Create Destination Account.

After successfully calling this endpoint, there is a 10-minute window during which you can cancel the wire using Cancel Wire Transaction.
