What is the account switching service?

The account switching service is an interbank, standarised and sectoral service provided by Iberpay that facilitates the exchange of the information necessary in an account switch in less than five days: balances, periodic transfers and direct debits associated to the account.

The automatic exchange of information is available through web services which also enables the integration of the service in the entity's own platforms or applications. In addition, the service provides an information system to send and receive requests manually, as well as to consult its activity and statistics.

 

How does the service work?

 

 

Account Switching Service
  1. Bank A, the requesting entity, sends an account switch request following a client’s request to do so.
  2. The service receives, processes and distributes the request to Bank B.
  3. Bank B replies with the requested information within a maximum period of 5 business days.
  4. The service sends the requesting entity a reply with the necessary information to make the account switch: type of account switch, direct debit transactions, recurring deposits (salaries, pensions, etc.), or other payment arrangements.
  5. The information system is available for participants to send and reply requests manually, if desired.
