Virtual IBANs
Virtual IBAN Functionality
Virtual IBANs operate as routing identifiers within a two-tier account structure, where master IBANs maintain actual balances while virtual IBANs serve as payment reception endpoints. Incoming payments directed to virtual IBANs are automatically routed to the associated master IBAN. The virtual IBAN reference and associated metadata are preserved throughout the transaction flow and appear in master account statements. Virtual IBANs maintain zero balances and function exclusively for payment reception and routing.

Virtual IBAN Creation
Virtual IBANs are created through dedicated API endpoint that require a virtual account information and master account uuid.
SInce new account creation is asynchronous, GuruPay API will return an empty 201 response. A webhook will be sent to your application once account is created and opened:
