The Electrum Regulated Payments Events API is a synchronous API that describes the events emitted by the Electrum Regulated Payments platform during the course of transaction processing.
This document describes the single endpoint that you will need to implement in order to receive event notifications posted by Electrum.
As transactions are processed by Electrum, events are emitted to provide information about the status of the transactions and the operations preformed on them. These events do not affect processing, but provide information that can be used for operational support and monitoring purposes.
All events are posted to the same single URL. Event are differentiated by a unique descriptor contained in the name
field of the message body. This descriptor serves to allow the receiver to determine whether the particular event is of interest.

Transactions transition through different states. As each state is entered, an event is emitted. This event provides information about the state entered by the transaction. Included in this information is the message payload of the operation that triggered the state transition in the Electrum Regulated Payments. Note: The message payload attached to an event might be an internally-triggered message and not the message sent to or received from the Electrum Regulated Payments API.
An FiToFiCreditTransfer is sent by a debtor financial institution to a creditor financial institution, directly or through other agents and/or a payment clearing and settlement system. It is used to move funds from a debtor account to a creditor, where both debtor and creditor are financial institutions.
Holds a point-to-point unique message identification string as well as a message's creation date time.
The date and time at which the message was created, in senders local timezone or UTC. The date must be formatted as defined by date-time
in RFC3339
A list of key-value pairs to support adding any supplementary/additional data to an Electrum Regulated Payments API message.
Holds a series of identifiers to identify the transaction or an individual message that is part of a transaction.
Unique identification, as assigned by the initiating party, to unambiguously identify the transaction. This identification is passed on, unchanged, throughout the entire end-to-end chain. Note: this is distinct from the UETR.
Unique identification, as assigned by an instructing party for an instructed party, to unambiguously identify the instruction. The instruction identification is a point to point reference that can be used between the instructing party and the instructed party to refer to the individual instruction. It can be included in several messages related to the instruction.
Unique identification, as assigned by the first instructing agent, to unambiguously identify the transaction that is passed on, unchanged, throughout the entire interbank chain. Usage: The transaction identification can be used for reconciliation, tracking or to link tasks relating to the transaction on the interbank level. Usage: The instructing agent has to make sure that the transaction identification is unique for a pre-agreed period.

Agents between the debtor's agent and the creditor's agent. Usage: If more than one intermediary agent is present, then IntermediaryAgent1 identifies the agent between the DebtorAgent and the IntermediaryAgent2
Designates which scheme an FI to FI credit transfer is associated with and describes scheme-specific information for it.
Information supplied to enable the matching of an entry with the items that the transfer is intended to settle, such as commercial invoices in an accounts' receivable system

ZA_RTC
: South African Realtime Clearing scheme.ZA_RPP
: South African Realtime Payments Platform scheme.ZA_EFT
: South African Electronic Funds Transfer scheme.CBPR_PLUS
: Cross-Border Payments and Reporting Plus.An identifier's namespace provides a context for the identifier to distinguish different identifiers which may have the same value but be intended to identify different accounts. For example, a bank may use the same MSISDN (identifier) with different namespaces to distinguish between a customer's cheque or savings accounts.
This may be used by the following schemes:
Indicates the schema of the identifier, e.g. MOBILE

.
Universally unique identifier to provide an end-to-end reference. This identifier remains the same for all messages related to the same transaction.
