Creating a Wallet

The Create Wallet endpoint has a name parameter which allows you to attach a unique identifier to the wallet, perhaps a user id generated by your app/platform.

The type parameter allows you to choose the type of wallet to create from the following options:

  • DEFAULT
  • ENTERPRISE

Wallets are attached to your Wyre business account at the platform level and allow you to operate them on behalf of your users via the Transfers endpoint.
