Automatically validate, extract and verify transactional data from a valid PDF bank statement.
In Bank Statement Upload V1.0, the validation checks as well as transactional processing is handled simultaneously within the API call. Therefore you are only able to upload one statement at a time. If you are uploading multiple 1-month statements, you would have to do so in three consecutive calls.
You may only upload one bank statement at a time. If in the case where by you need to upload multiple bank statements you will need to upload the bank statements one-by-one in sequential calls.
