P2P transfers move funds between accounts within your institution instantly, at no cost by default, 24 hours a day. You can configure fees per organization — see Fee configuration below. The transfer never leaves your system, so it settles synchronously and needs no BACEN network.

​
When to use P2P

P2P is the right transfer type whenever both the sender and recipient hold accounts at your institution. Common scenarios include:
  • Moving money between a customer’s own accounts — a customer transferring from their checking account to their savings account, or between two accounts they manage.
  • Paying another customer at the same institution — a customer sending money to a friend, family member, or business that also banks with you.
  • Internal treasury movements — splitting balances between corporate accounts held within the same organization.
  • Payment splitting — distributing amounts across multiple accounts for payroll, expense sharing, or cashback.
The plugin detects P2P automatically. When the recipient’s ISPB matches your institution’s ISPB, the plugin routes the transfer internally. Your API integration is identical to TED OUT, so you need no separate endpoint or logic.

​
Key advantages

​
How it works

P2P reuses the same API as TED OUT, so your integration stays consistent across transfer types. The process is two steps from the customer’s perspective: P2P flow diagram
  1. Initiate — The customer submits the transfer details. The plugin validates the recipient, checks the sender balance, and confirms the fee (typically R$ 0.00). The customer sees the transfer summary before committing.
  2. Confirm — The customer confirms. The plugin creates an atomic debit + credit in Midaz. The transfer completes immediately.
The two-step flow gives you a natural moment to show the customer a confirmation screen with the full transfer summary before any funds move.

​
Transfer states

The PENDING state does not apply to P2P transfers. TED OUT uses PENDING to mark funds it reserves while it awaits SPB submission. P2P settles entirely within Midaz, so the transfer moves directly from PROCESSING to COMPLETED.

​
Fee configuration

The plugin disables fees by default. Most institutions offer internal transfers at no charge. The fee configuration is available if your pricing model needs it. To enable P2P fees, see TED configuration.

​
Recipient validation

The recipient must have an account at the same institution. When you submit a transfer, the plugin looks up the recipient in CRM. It matches the bank details you provide: ISPB, branch, account, and holder document. If the plugin does not find the recipient, it rejects the transfer and moves no funds. The customer must check the account details and try again.

​
Technical integration

P2P uses the same endpoints as TED OUT. You need no extra integration work beyond the outbound transfer flow you already built.
The type field in the transfer response is P2P. P2P transfers have no controlNumber, because they do not go through JD SPB.

​
Error handling

P2P transfers are atomic. The plugin creates the debit and credit as a single Midaz transaction. If any part fails, Midaz applies neither leg. No intermediate state moves funds partially or leaves an account short. If a transfer fails, the customer keeps the same balance and can retry.
