For Agents

Send global mass payouts through Payoneer, onboard and manage payees, process single and batch payments, track payout status, and generate reconciliation reports.

Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the Payoneer Payouts API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Payoneer Payouts API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.

Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine

# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh

Step 2: Agent machine

# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register       # connects your agent to your Jentic One instance

Jentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use Payoneer Payouts API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Contractor and Freelancer Payments

Companies with distributed workforces use Payoneer to pay contractors, freelancers, and remote employees across borders. The payer first creates a payee registration link, sends it to the contractor, then initiates payouts once the payee completes verification. Payoneer handles currency conversion, local settlement, and compliance — the contractor receives funds in their local bank account or card. Typical integration takes 1-2 weeks and supports 200+ countries.

Marketplace Seller Payouts

E-commerce marketplaces and platform businesses use the batch payout endpoint to pay sellers and merchants at scale. After aggregating sales and fees, the platform calls POST /programs/{program_id}/payouts/batch with an array of payee_id and amount pairs. Payoneer processes all payments in parallel, handles compliance checks, and reports status per payout. Platforms can group related payouts for reconciliation and generate CSV reports for accounting.

Send weekly payouts to 200 marketplace sellers with a single batch request, group them by batch ID, and download a CSV report for finance

Affiliate and Partner Commissions

Affiliate networks and partner programs use Payoneer to automate commission payments. The network tracks conversions and commissions in their system, then calls the Payouts API monthly or quarterly to distribute earnings. By filtering the payee list by status=ACTIVE, they ensure only verified affiliates receive funds. The API supports payment_id for idempotency so duplicate payouts are prevented even if the commission job runs twice.

Calculate affiliate commissions for Q1, create payouts for all ACTIVE affiliates, and track each payout status until FUNDED

AI Agent Payout Operations

Through Jentic, AI agents can manage Payoneer payout operations — registering payees, checking balances, sending individual and batch payouts, and generating reports — without holding OAuth credentials directly. Jentic isolates the client secret, handles token refresh, and returns structured responses that agents can reason over. This enables autonomous payout workflows for gig platforms, creator economies, and global disbursement systems.

Search Jentic for 'send payoneer payout', load the schema for POST /programs/{program_id}/payouts, and execute it for a €500 test payout to a verified payee

Why Jentic?

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.

Credential isolation

Payoneer OAuth 2.0 client credentials are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault. Agents receive scoped access at execution time — the client secret never enters the agent's context, and access tokens are managed automatically.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic by intent (e.g., 'send a payout to a contractor') and Jentic returns the matching Payoneer operation with its parameter schema, so the agent picks the right endpoint without reading Payoneer docs.

Time to first call

Direct Payoneer integration: 1-2 weeks for OAuth setup, payee onboarding flow, payout creation, status tracking, and reporting. Through Jentic: under 1 hour — search, load schema, execute.

FAQs

Specific to using Payoneer Payouts API through Jentic.

What authentication does the Payoneer Payouts API use?

Payoneer uses OAuth 2.0 with client credentials grant. You exchange your client ID and secret for an access token via POST /oauth2/token, then include the token in the Authorization header for subsequent requests. Through Jentic, the client secret is stored encrypted and tokens are managed automatically.

Can I send payouts to multiple countries with one API call?

Yes. Use POST /programs/{program_id}/payouts/batch to send an array of payouts in a single request. Each payout can have a different payee, currency, and amount. Payoneer handles currency conversion, local settlement, and compliance for all countries in the batch.

How do I register new payees?

Call POST /programs/{program_id}/payees with the payee_id from your system. Payoneer returns a registration_link that you send to the payee. They complete verification on the hosted page, and their status changes to ACTIVE when eligible to receive funds. Check status with GET /payees/{payee_id}/status.

What payout methods does Payoneer support?

Payoneer supports bank transfers, prepaid Mastercard, local payment methods, and ACH depending on the payee's country. Each payee selects their preferred method during registration. The API returns available payout_methods in the payee object.

What are the rate limits for the Payoneer Payouts API?

Payoneer does not publish hard rate limits in the public spec. For production workloads, expect to handle dozens of requests per second for listing and status checks, and several batch payout requests per minute. Contact Payoneer support for specific limits based on your program volume.

How do I prevent duplicate payouts?

Include a unique payment_id in your payout request. Payoneer uses this for idempotency — if you retry the same payment_id, you get the original payout status back instead of creating a duplicate. This is critical for scheduled payout jobs that might run twice.
