How to use this API!

Request Type: GET

URL: https://gateway.apyflux.com/api/v1/ROUTING_NUMBER_HERE replace the ROUTING_NUMBER_HERE with the routing number you want to lookup

Parameters (all optional, not case sensitive):

  • format
  • paymentType
    • Accepted values: ach, wire, all
    • Default value: ach
    • Description: if you don't put this, it will default to ACH. Bank information is a little different depending on whether you're trying to use the ACH system or the Wire Transfer system. You define what you want here. For example, if you need the Wire Transfer information, you'd add the query param into the url like this https://gateway.apyflux.com/api/v1/121000248?paymentType=wire. Generally ACH info is the most common, so if you don't know what any of this stuff means just leave this blank and let it default to ACH. You may also get both ACH and Wire information at the same time by passing paymentType=all

Let's look at some full examples!
