Can Real-time Retail Payments Platform (RPP) set a percentage traffic split for Issuer and Acquirer?

Yes, initiating participants - known as Originating Financial Institutions (OFIs) can adopt a percentage-based traffic split when migrating to the Modernised API. For example, an OFI may choose to route 60% of traffic via TCP/IP and 40% via the Modernised API (API v3).

However, receiving participants - Receiving Financial Institutions (RFIs) must fully migrate to the Modernised API for a specific transaction code. This means 100% of traffic for that transaction must be routed through API v3.

Switching Connectivity

  • OFIs can switch between TCP/IP and API connections directly.

  • RFIs must submit a request to PayNet to initiate a connectivity switch.
