# Grant List API

The Grant List API is used as an internal fraud and risk mitigation tool for merchants performing remittance transactions. Merchants can add account information to the Grant List database using the /account operation to let us know which account(s) to use for deposits.

 

Upon receiving the remittance transaction request, Payments-API checks that the account specified in the request exists in the Grant List database for that merchant. The Grant List API requires [Basic Authentication](/gettingstarted#basic-authentication).
