The PPI APIs let you create and manage digital wallets, sub-wallets, gift cards, and prepaid cards for your users. These APIs enable secure fund transactions, ensure compliance with RBI guidelines, and support integration across multiple business use cases. ## Key features The PPI APIs support the following capabilities: * **Create and manage users, wallets, and sub-wallets:** Onboard users and create wallets or sub-wallets with program-based configuration, and update them as needed. * **Fund transfers:** Handle credits, debits, and refunds securely with duplicate-transaction protection. * **RBI-compliant KYC and rules:** Enforce KYC verification, balance limits, and transaction rules in line with RBI guidelines. * **Wallet balances:** Retrieve total and sub-wallet balances in real time. ## Program structure A Program defines the wallet type and rules for your integration. * **Definition:** A Program specifies the type of wallet or instrument you can offer. * **Functions:** It lets you configure limits, validity, and usage rules. * **Sub-programs:** A Program can include multiple categories, such as meal, reward, or gift wallets, to support different use cases. For example, the main program may have an overall load limit of ₹50,000 per month. Within it, the Meal sub-wallet could allow only ₹2,000 per month and be restricted to food merchants. ## PPI APIs The following APIs are grouped by function to help you find what you need quickly. ### Users Use these APIs to create and manage PPI users. | API | Description | | :------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | :-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | [Create PPI User](/api-reference/prepaid-payment-instruments/user-management/create-ppi-user) | Create a new user in the PPI system with personal information required for wallet operations. | | [Get PPI User Details](/api-reference/prepaid-payment-instruments/user-management/get-ppi-user-details) | Retrieve details of an existing user based on the user ID. | | [Update PPI User](/api-reference/prepaid-payment-instruments/user-management/update-ppi-user) | Update an existing PPI user's information. | ### User KYC Use these APIs to verify users and complete KYC requirements. | API | Description | | :-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | :--------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | [Initiate Video KYC](/api-reference/prepaid-payment-instruments/kyc-verification/video-kyc-verification) | Initiate Video KYC for a user and generate a VKYC link. | | [Get Video KYC Status](/api-reference/prepaid-payment-instruments/kyc-verification/get-video-kyc-status) | Retrieve the current status and details of a Video KYC verification request. | | [Video KYC Webhooks](/api-reference/prepaid-payment-instruments/kyc-verification/webhook-vkyc) | Receive webhook notifications for Video KYC status updates. | | [VKYC Status and Status-Code Mapping](/api-reference/prepaid-payment-instruments/kyc-verification/vkyc-status-descriptions) | View status and status-code values returned during the Video KYC flow. | ### Wallets Use these APIs to create wallets, manage balances, and process credits, debits, and refunds. | API | Description | | :----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | :-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | [Create Wallet](/api-reference/prepaid-payment-instruments/wallet-management/create-wallet) | Create a wallet and associated sub-wallets based on a program configuration. | | [Credit Wallet](/api-reference/prepaid-payment-instruments/wallet-management/credit-wallet) | Credit funds to a user's sub-wallet and issue gift codes for gift wallets. | | [Debit Wallet](/api-reference/prepaid-payment-instruments/wallet-management/debit-wallet) | Debit an amount from a user's sub-wallet.
