Recipient management module

Every corridor, one recipient system

Add, search, edit, and reuse recipients, with the exact fields and checks each corridor requires.

01

One list, every corridor

Internal, SEPA, SWIFT, UK Faster Payment, Crypto, and every local corridor, in one Recipients tab.

02

Matched to the contract

Only payment methods and accounts the contract actually supports are offered.

03

Save as you send

Save a recipient right from the confirm step of any payment, no separate setup needed.

04

Smart reuse across currencies

Using a saved recipient in a new currency extends it automatically, without creating a visible duplicate.

05

Edit safely

Editing runs the same checks as creating a new recipient, so details never go stale unnoticed.

06

Searchable and sorted

Find any recipient by name, with the ones used most recently shown first.

The right fields, every corridor

Every recipient carries exactly what its corridor needs

A UK recipient shows a sort code. A SWIFT recipient shows IBAN, BIC, and intermediary bank details when relevant. No generic, one-size-fits-all recipient record.

  • Fields and validation match each payment method’s own requirements
  • SWIFT recipients include intermediary bank details when present
  • Destination and intermediary bank countries are checked against restrictions
  • Crypto recipients carry a wallet address, label, network, and currency

Built for web and mobile alike

Recipients shown the way each platform works best

Search, add, or remove a recipient right from the Send Money form. On web, every recipient type sits in one searchable list; on mobile, the list is filtered by the currency of the account a customer is sending from.

  • Web: every recipient type available in a single, searchable list
  • Mobile: filtered automatically by the sending account’s currency
  • SWIFT recipients remain visible across every currency, on both platforms
  • Recently used recipients always appear first
Why FinHost

One recipient system instead of one per corridor

Without unified recipient management

  • Separate recipient lists per payment method
  • Re-entering full bank details for a recipient used before
  • No automatic handling when a recipient’s currency doesn’t match the account
  • Stale or duplicate recipient records over time

With FinHost

  • One recipient list spanning every corridor
  • Save a recipient once, reuse it everywhere it applies
  • Automatic, duplicate-free extension across currencies
  • Consistent validation every time a recipient is created or edited

Frequently Asked Questions

Smart Recipient Management

Can I save a recipient without sending them money first?

Yes. Recipients can be added directly from the Recipients tab on the Send Money page, or saved from the confirm step of a payment you’re already making.

What happens if I use a saved recipient with a different currency account?

FinHost checks whether the recipient can receive funds in that currency and extends the recipient automatically if so, without creating a duplicate you’d need to manage.

Can the same person be saved as more than one recipient?

Yes, if they’re added through different methods, such as by phone number and by email for an internal transfer. Reusing the same details doesn’t create a duplicate.

How do I edit a recipient’s details?

Editing a recipient runs the same checks as creating a new one, so the updated details are always validated before they’re saved.

Are recipients the same on web and mobile?

The full recipient list is available on both. On mobile, the list shown when sending money is filtered by the currency of the account you’re sending from; on web, every recipient type is available in a single list.

What if I delete a recipient by mistake?

A deleted recipient no longer appears in your list. To use them again, you’ll need to add them as a new recipient.
