Volt

Volt is a London-headquartered real-time payments company that operates a global account-to-account (A2A) "pay by bank" network built on open banking rails. Founded in 2019, Volt connects merchants to bank-initiated payments across the UK (Faster Payments / Open Banking under PSD2), Europe (SEPA), Brazil (Pix), Australia (PayTo), and other real-time schemes through a single API, so shoppers pay directly from their bank account without cards. Its platform spans payment initiation, refunds, payouts, recurring payments (mandates / variable recurring payments), Volt Accounts and virtual IBANs for settlement and collections, account verification (confirmation of payee), and reconciliation reporting. Volt sells to merchants and PSPs across ecommerce, travel, gaming, iGaming and financial services, and is FCA-authorised in its home market of the United Kingdom. Volt ships a genuine, API-native developer surface: a public developer portal and OpenAPI-backed API reference at docs.volt.io, a single production gateway host (gateway.volt.io) with a sandbox, OAuth2 authentication, and webhooks for asynchronous payment events. The docs.volt.io API reference renders schemas server-side, but Volt publishes a real OpenAPI 3.0.1 definition for its Accounts API (virtual IBANs, named accounts, settlement) in the github.com/volt-io/volt-io-accounts repository, and ships first-party mobile checkout SDKs (iOS/Android) plus e-commerce plugins in the same GitHub organization.

Volt publishes 12 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Account Holder Verification API, Accounts API, Aliases API, and 9 more. Tagged areas include Payments, United Kingdom, Open Banking, Account-to-Account, and Real-Time Payments.

The Volt catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification and 1 Spectral governance ruleset.

Volt’s developer surface includes authentication, sandbox, pricing, signup flow, documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, and 35 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Banking & Open Finance regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.

The six quality facets above are damped to 75 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 25. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 75% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Agent readiness — checks not met, largest first (exact, from this profile):

Markets this provider is in provisional

The Kin Score Market layer reads a provider inside its market: its position, and how deep its integrations go. Depth is only comparable within a position. Provisional and unweighted: not part of the Kin Score or agent readiness.

Registered MCP server and declares compatibility are report only — not weighted. Undeclared means we found nothing we can read, so there is no number: we never infer integrations.

Standards implemented 2

Standards this provider implements or carries. De facto ones are profiled and measured by the API Commons; formal ones come from the standards directory and are linked by the provider's own tags. The evidence column says how each claim was established — not that it was made.
