Financial Accounts

What Is a RocketKOR Financial Account?

In RocketKOR, the accounts used in transactions are called Financial Accounts.

Transactions can be conducted between Financial Accounts that belong to the same Child Business Account. For example, you can send funds from a Business Financial Account to a Customer Financial Account if these accounts reside in the same Child Business Account.

There are three types of Financial Accounts: Business, Customer, and Recipient.

Business Financial Accounts

  • Financial Accounts owned by your organization
  • Created within a Child Business Account

Customer Financial Accounts

  • Financial Accounts owned by a Customer
  • Created within a Child Business Account
  • Linked to a Customer Account
  • The Customer Account and Financial Account must be created with the same Child Business Account

Recipient Financial Accounts

  • Financial Accounts owned by a Recipient
  • Created within a Child Business Account
  • Linked to a Recipient Account
  • The Recipient Account and Financial Account must be created with the same Child Business Account
