which is essentially a type of namespace. This is the equivalent of the Electrum 'namespace' found on Non-Banking Identifiers, such as a MobileIdentifier

companyRegistrationstring<= 35 charactersDeprecated

A unique identifier assigned to a company or organisation by a duly appointed authority within a country.

memberIdstring<= 35 charactersDeprecated

Deprecated. Please use the preferred clearingSystemMemberId.memberId instead. Identification of a member of a clearing system.

ZaRppDeterminationRequest

A request providing information for the lookup of a proxy or account in the context of the ZA RPP Payment Scheme:

If the identifier schema is either MOBILE or CUSTOM, proxy resolution will be performed. In this case, the identifier.namespace field is required.
If the identifier schema is GENERIC, account resolution will be performed. In this case, the accountAgent.bicfi field is required.

schemastring(PaymentSchemeName)required

Identifies the scheme used for the payment

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.

identifier.namespacestring[ 1 .. 40 ] characters

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:

IdentifierDeterminationRequest

A model containing the foundational elements shared across messages and generally expected in a message used during processing with the Electrum Regulated Payments API.

messageIdentifiersobject(MessageIdentifiers)required

Holds a point-to-point unique message identification string as well as a message's creation date time.

messageIdentifiers.creationDateTimestring(date-time)required

messageIdentifiers.messageIdentificationstring<= 35 charactersrequired

A reference used to unambiguously identify the message between the sending and receiving party. Take note that this uniquely identifies a single message in a potentially multi-message exchange to complete a payment.

supplementaryDataobject(SupplementaryData)

A list of key-value pairs to support adding any supplementary/additional data to an Electrum Regulated Payments API message.

requestobject(DeterminationRequest)required

A request providing information for the lookup of a proxy or account in the context of the ZA RPP Payment Scheme:

If the identifier schema is either MOBILE or CUSTOM, proxy resolution will be performed. In this case, the identifier.namespace field is required.
If the identifier schema is GENERIC, account resolution will be performed. In this case, the accountAgent.bicfi field is required.
