J.P. Morgan Embedded Payments

What J.P. Morgan Embedded Payments is

J.P. Morgan Embedded Payments is an API service for platforms integrating account management and payouts into an existing product. Through one integration, platforms can onboard clients, manage accounts and funds, and initiate payouts. J.P. Morgan conducts identity verification and due diligence during onboarding. J.P. Morgan describes API-driven account and entity validation using direct data checks, microdeposits, name matching, identity details, and screening.

The account model includes limited client accounts, virtual transaction accounts, and platform operational accounts. Virtual accounts help track and reconcile funds owed to or received from counterparties. Listed payout methods are ACH, wire, RTP, FXACH, FXWIRE, and Push to Card; RTP and Push to Card are described as immediate settlement methods. The stated transaction limits are $1,000,000 for RTP and $125,000 for Push to Card, with a lower Push to Card limit available on request. Linked external accounts are checked to confirm they belong to the named party and can receive payments. It is cloud deployed, supports webhooks and network tokenization, and lists card, selected wallet, browser, and third-party network tokens. Pricing is on request.

Who it suits

It suits platforms seeking to add account management, client onboarding, and payout services through an API integration. Teams that need J.P. Morgan identity checks, account validation, and multiple documented payout routes may find its capabilities relevant.

Limits
