​
Idempotent Endpoint

This endpoint supports idempotency to prevent duplicate account creation.

​
How to Use

  • Include an Idempotency-Key header with a unique value (UUID recommended)
  • The API returns the existing account when you reuse the same key
  • Retry requests safely without creating duplicates

​
Overview

This endpoint creates a new account, either PRIVATE or LEGAL. It validates the provided information, generates an IBAN, and creates the account with an OPEN status. All accounts require the account holder’s name, country code, and bank details for IBAN generation, while legal accounts also require a legal entity ID. You can optionally provide a unique clientAccountId to link the account to your internal systems.
