How it works

  1. Confirm that the country of the Requesting PSP is eligible to make VoP Requests by checking if the Requesting PSP’s Country Code (taken from the PSP’s BIC) is present in a list of eligible Country Codes.

  2. If the Requesting PSP’s Country Code is not present in the list, then the VoP request is rejected.

  3. If the Country Code check is successful, confirm that the Requesting PSP’s country is mandated to make VoP Requests according to the VoP Regulatory Date for that country.

  4. If the VoP Regulatory Date for that country has been reached or passed, or the Regulatory Date field is blank, then the VoP Request is allowed.

  5. If the VoP Regulatory Date for that country is in the future, then the VoP request is rejected.
