Verification Of Payee Requester Service

The IPF Verification of Payee (VoP) Requester Service represents an implementation of the Verification of Payee service for Requesting PSPs required by SEPA Instant Payment Regulation. When a payer requests to make a payment, the Requester Service calls a Responder Service via a Routing and Verification Mechanisms (RVM).

The service handles requests from a Processing Entity (PE) to a Routing and Verification Mechanism (RVM). The RVM returns a response (generated by the Responder) in the form of a match result. IPF have their own VoP Responder service which can be used alongside this Requester service, but they can also be used as two separate standalone services.

The IPF Verification of Payee (VoP) Requester currently supports FPAD as a Routing and Verification Mechanism (RVM).

The below diagram depicts the flow of a VoP request through the VoP Requester to the RVM:
