Frequently Asked Questions

Does Numeral intermediate funds?

Numeral is a payment operations software, not a payment service provider. As such, Numeral doesn’t intermediate funds. Your funds flow directly between yours and your customers' and partners' bank accounts. Numeral only exchanges files and messages with your banks to initiate payments from your bank accounts or fetch account or payment-related information. Doing so, Numeral enables you to move funds directly in and out of your bank accounts.

Does Numeral use open banking APIs?

No. Numeral connects to bank corporate connectivity channels for increased reliability and cost efficiency of payments.

Can I use Numeral with any bank?

You can use Numeral with any bank we integrate with. Check our current bank coverage here. We are building integrations with new banks every month, and prioritise based on our customers needs. Get in touch with us to discuss your bank coverage needs.

No, you can work with as many banks and accounts as you want on the Numeral platform.

Do I have to fund a wallet to use the Numeral API?

Are there limits on the number of counterparties I can enter on the Numeral platform?

No, you use as many counterparties as you want on the Numeral platform.

Does Numeral open bank accounts for me?

No. We believe that keeping your own relationships with your banks is critical for your business. However, Numeral makes connecting with your banks connectivity solutions seamless. We will guide you with the information you need from your banks in order to make it work.

How does Numeral connect to banks?

For each bank and each payment method, we determine the best bank direct connectivity solution from available options (SFTP, EBICS, API, …). We then build the integration for the selection option, which consists in building the logic that transforms calls made to our API into messages and files accepted by the bank direct connectivity solution, and vice versa, in addition to the support and management of edge cases, bank servers unavailability, etc.
