Visa Buyer Management Service API

The Buyer Service provides self-service capabilities that simplify and reduce the implementation process for new VPA buyers (and other downstream systems). Buyers can be created from scratch or from a pre-defined Buyer Template. Either way, these APIs help streamline the process and increase the speed of buyer deployments, as well as provide third parties with insight into the buyers configurations for troubleshooting. For more details about the requirements for creating a buyer, please reference the Buyer Setup Details page.
