Make an asynchronous top-up

Using the /topup-async endpoint, developers have a faster way to view the status of every top-up that they make in real-time

For every asynchronous top-up that is made, a transaction ID is the only parameter returned as a response. This transaction ID can be used to confirm if the top-up request is successful, still processing, or failed

Async top-up

POST https://topups.reloadly.com/topups-async

Headers

Name	Type	Description
Authorization*	string	Your access token is required as a bearer token in the request's header

Request Body

Name	Type	Description
operatorId*	integer	Indicates the operator's ID
amount*	integer	Indicates the amount of airtime or data that is to be recharged
useLocalAmount	boolean	Indicates if the recharge is to be made in the operator's local currency. Default is false. This option is only available for operators that support local top-ups
customIdentifier	string	Indicates the transaction reference of the recharge Note: Each transaction reference is to be unique. Once a reference has been used for a top-up transaction, it cannot be reused.
recipientEmail	string	This is the recipient's email address. It is required when the operator is Nauta Cuba It supports only two email domains: 1. @nauta.com.cu 2. @nauta.co.cu
receiverPhone*	object	Indicates an object containing the receiver's country code and mobile number
senderPhone*	object	Indicates an object containing the sender's country code and mobile number
countryCode*	string	Indicates the ISO code of the receiver's or sender's country. For top-up senders, this parameter is optional
number*	string	Indicates the mobile number of the top-up receiver or sender. For top-up senders, this parameter is optional

200 This response is gotten when a successful request is made. Note that a transaction ID will still be returned even when the top-up is not successful. The status of each transaction ID can be confirmed through the/{{transactionId}}/status endpoint
