  description: "The Account Transfer API enables near real‑time movement of funds between a client’s own\
    \ accounts at Citizens. Designed to support day‑to‑day cash‑management needs, this API provides a\
    \ simple, secure way to initiate single, same‑day transfers (future‑dated transfers are not supported\
    \ in the current version).\nWhile the Payments API handles external disbursements, clients often need\
    \ a separate capability to move money internally across their accounts. The Account Transfer API fulfills\
    \ this need with a streamlined process built for automation and integration.\n\n**Key features include:**\n\
    \n- **Near real‑time internal transfers between a client’s own accounts**\n- **Single‑transaction\
    \ initiation (batch transfers not supported)**\n- **FAPI‑compliant security, including OAuth 2.0 with\
    \ fine‑grained scopes**\n- **Standardized JSON-based responses for consistent, easy integration**\n\
    \nThis API gives clients a secure, modern, API-driven mechanism to manage liquidity across their accounts\
    \ without relying on manual or online banking processes.\n\n The **Account To Account Transfer API**\
    \ provides the following functionalities:\n \n<br>  **Account Transfer API**:\n   - Initiates fund\
    \ transfer by providing account numbers and Amount atleast $ 0.01 .\n   - **Endpoint**: `v1/account-transfer/initiate`\
    \ (POST)\n   - **Purpose**: To initiate the transfer between accounts.\n   \n"
