VoP will appear when you add a Eurozone beneficiary to your Currenxie account and when making a EUR payment to a beneficiary in Eurozone countries.
When VoP runs:
- Adding a new beneficiary:
- Individuals: After you click Continue on 'Add beneficiary,' VoP checks using Full Name + IBAN.
- Corporates:
- If the account supports a Registered ID and you add one, VoP uses Registered ID + IBAN.
- If you skip a Registered ID, VoP uses Name + IBAN.
- Making a EUR transfer:
- After you click Continue on the 'Enter amount' page, VoP checks:
- Individuals: Full Name + IBAN.
- Corporates: Registered ID + IBAN (if provided); otherwise, Name + IBAN.
- If the result is ‘Exact match’, you go straight to the review page.
- For ‘Close match’ (Name + IBAN), ‘Doesn’t match’, ‘No matching account’, or ‘Not available’, you’ll see a warning before the review page and can cancel or continue.
- After you click Continue on the 'Enter amount' page, VoP checks:
VoP results and what to do:
Situation A: Name + IBAN (individuals and corporates using name)
- Exact match:
- You’ll proceed directly to the review page with a 'These details are correct.' note.
- Recommended action: Continue as normal.
- Close match:
- You’ll see 'Name is a close match.' You can keep your original input or update to the bank’s suggested name.
- Recommended action: Review and, if in doubt, confirm with your beneficiary before proceeding.
- Doesn’t match:
- You’ll see 'Name doesn’t match.' You can edit details or continue with your original input.
- Recommended action: Double-check details with the beneficiary. Consider pausing the payment if you can’t confirm.
Situation B: Registered ID + IBAN (corporates using registered ID)
- Exact match:
- You’ll proceed directly to the review page with a confirmation note.
- Recommended action: Continue as normal.
- Doesn’t match:
- You’ll see 'Registered ID doesn’t match.' You can edit details or continue.
- Recommended action: Verify the registered ID with the beneficiary (e.g., LEI) before proceeding.
Situation C: Shared outcomes
- No matching account is found:
- A warning page will appear. This can occur for several reasons (e.g., account is closed or account does not exist).
- Recommended action: Reconfirm details with the beneficiary before continuing.
- Not available / service error:
- We’ll notify you that verification isn’t available right now (e.g., timeout or service error).
- Recommended action: You may continue or try again later; if urgent, reconfirm details out of band.
Best practices:
- Use Registered ID for corporations where supported to improve matching certainty.
- Treat ‘Close match’ and ‘Doesn’t match’ warnings as prompts to re-validate beneficiary details.
- Maintain up-to-date beneficiary records to minimize warnings and delays.
- Continue to apply your internal controls, especially for new or amended payment instructions.
