In the Dwolla production environment, you must wait until the micro-deposits actually post to the customerās bank account before the account can be verified, which can take 1-2 business days. A microdeposits_completed
event will be triggered once micro-deposits have successfully posted to the bank. Once micro-deposits have completed, a verify-micro-deposits
link relation will return on the funding source letting your application know the funding source can be verified. When the amounts are entered for verification, the order in which they are entered doesn't matter.
var fundingSourceUrl =
"https://api-sandbox.dwolla.com/funding-sources/e52006c3-7560-4ff1-99d5-b0f3a6f4f909";
var requestBody = {
amount1: {
value: "0.03",
currency: "USD",
},
amount2: {
value: "0.09",
currency: "USD",
},
};
appToken.post(`${fundingSourceUrl}/micro-deposits`, requestBody);
Your customer will have only three attempts to correctly input the two posted micro-deposit amounts. If your customer reaches the max attempts allowed, a microdeposits_maxattempts
event will be triggered and a failed-verification-micro-deposits
link will be returned in the response for the funding-source. As a result, they will no longer be allowed to verify the funding source using those same two posted micro-deposit amounts. In order to retry bank account verification via micro-deposits, the following steps will need to be taken by your customer and application:
Links returned on the funding source resource, either initiate-micro-deposits
or verify-micro-deposits
, will give your application insight into whether the funding source is eligible to receive or verify micro-deposits.
