Moov API

Finance / API Key Intermediate HTTPS
Varies by plan (check documentation)

Overview

Moov is a modern payments infrastructure API that makes it straightforward for platforms to send, receive, and store money. You can create wallets, link bank accounts, and initiate ACH transfers or card payments through a single unified API. It is designed for developers building embedded financial services, marketplaces, or payment applications in the US.

Beginner Tip

Moov uses OAuth 2.0 client credentials — generate a token with the required scopes for your use case before calling any endpoint; tokens expire after one hour.

Common Errors & Troubleshooting

401 Unauthorized Access token is missing, expired, or lacks required scopes
Request a new OAuth token with the exact scopes needed for your endpoint; tokens expire after one hour.
422 Unprocessable Entity Submitted data fails validation, such as an invalid routing number
Check the Moov API docs for required field formats; routing numbers must be exactly 9 digits and pass checksum validation.
409 Conflict Attempting to create a resource that already exists
Check if the account or bank account already exists before creating; use GET requests to verify existence first.
