Platform APIs

Accounts

Airwallex Accounts capabilities for holding balances, managing wallets, and scaling multi-currency ledgers on platforms.

In Airwallex Platform language, Accounts are the ledger and balance objects that hold value for a business or connected party across currencies.

Product teams use Accounts to separate operating cash, seller balances, or programme funds without forcing everything into one domestic bank account.

Account design choices—how many wallets, which currencies, who can withdraw—directly affect reconciliation and user trust.

For embedded finance, Accounts often sit between payment capture and payout execution, acting as the system of record for available funds.

When researching Accounts APIs, review create/update flows, balance queries, statement artefacts, and how FX conversions post to the ledger.
