}Create a recipient
Creates a new payout recipient linked to your account. Use GET /api/payouts/account-requirements first to determine the correct type and details fields for the target currency.
Wallet verification: wallet is required and must be a KYC-verified wallet (EVM or SVM). Unverified wallets are rejected with 403 — verify your wallet at kyc.madhousewallet.com.
Email transfer recipients: Pass type: "wise_email_recipient" to create an email-based EUR recipient. currency must be EUR. No account requirements lookup needed — provide only details: { email: "recipient@example.com" }. Email recipients carry no transfer fee.
Country format: When details.address is present, details.address.country is required and must be a valid ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code (two letters, e.g. US, GB, DE). Country names ("United States") and ISO-3 codes ("USA") are rejected with 400. This ensures the sanctions screen can reliably match country against the sanctioned record’s country list.
Compliance screening: The recipient is screened against a sanctions database before creation. The screen matches on three signals: accountHolderName (case-folded + accent-stripped exact match), details.address.country (ISO 2-letter code), and details.address (street + city + postal-code token overlap). A request is rejected with 403 only if all available signals match the same sanctioned entity. When either the sanctioned record or the recipient lacks a country or address, that check falls through to name-only matching to ensure sparse sanctions data still catches matches.
Rate limit: 30 requests/minute.

Body
ISO 4217 target currency code (e.g. EUR, GBP, USD)
"EUR"
Account type returned by GET /api/payouts/account-requirements (e.g. iban, sort_code, aba). Use wise_email_recipient to create an email-based EUR transfer recipient — no account requirements lookup needed. wise_email_recipient is only valid when currency is EUR.
"iban"
Full legal name of the account holder
"Jane Doe"
Account-type-specific fields. For standard types (e.g. iban, sort_code, aba): provide the fields returned by GET /api/payouts/account-requirements. When the account type requires an address, details.address.country must be a valid ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code (e.g. US, GB, DE). For wise_email_recipient: provide only { "email": "recipient@example.com" }.
{
"legalType": "PRIVATE",
"iban": "DE89370400440532013000"
}
Your wallet address (EVM 0x + 40 hex, or Solana base58 32–44 chars). Conditionally required: only needed if your account requires KYC verification. When required, it must be a KYC-verified wallet — unverified wallets are rejected with 403 (verify at kyc.madhousewallet.com). If KYC is not enabled for your account, this field may be omitted.
