Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the Adyen Payout API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Adyen Payout API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.

Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine

# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh

Step 2: Agent machine

# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register       # connects your agent to your Jentic One instance

Jentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.

Capabilities

What an agent can do with Adyen Payout API.

Store payout recipient details for later use via POST /storeDetail and combined store-and-submit via POST /storeDetailAndSubmitThirdParty

Submit a third-party payout for review via POST /submitThirdParty using a stored recipient

Approve a queued payout from a second credential via POST /confirmThirdParty

For Agents

Submit, confirm, decline, and store details for third-party payouts on Adyen's classic platform, plus run instant card payouts.

Use for: Store payout details for a marketplace seller's bank account, Submit a third-party payout to a stored recipient for $250, Approve a queued payout that another user submitted, Decline a payout that failed compliance review

Not supported: Does not authorise card payments, manage account holders, or handle disputes — use only for submitting, reviewing, and disbursing classic-platform payouts.

The Adyen Payout API is the classic-integration surface for storing payout details, submitting third-party payouts, and confirming or declining them with a separate review credential, plus running instant card payouts. The six endpoints implement the dual-credential flow Adyen requires for payouts: one credential stores details and submits a payout, a second credential confirms or declines it. Adyen has deprecated this API for new integrations and recommends the Transfers API for instant bank payouts and richer webhook signalling; the Payout API remains available for existing classic integrations.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use Adyen Payout API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Marketplace Seller Payouts with Dual Control

Marketplaces operating on Adyen's classic platform use POST /submitThirdParty to queue a payout to a stored recipient, then a separate operator with the review credential calls POST /confirmThirdParty to release the funds or POST /declineThirdParty to reject it. This satisfies segregation-of-duties controls common in regulated payouts. Recipient bank details are stored once via POST /storeDetail and reused across submissions.

Call POST /submitThirdParty with recurringDetailReference, amount, and merchantAccount, then from a reviewer credential call POST /confirmThirdParty with the originalReference

Instant Push-to-Card Payouts

When a recipient needs funds in minutes rather than days, POST /payout runs a push-to-card payout against eligible debit networks. This is suitable for gig-economy daily settlement, insurance disbursement, and rebate payouts when the recipient's debit BIN supports the network. The classic Payout API supports this single-call model alongside the dual-control third-party flow.

Call POST /payout with card details, amount, recurring.contract, and merchantAccount to run a push-to-card payout

Recipient Detail Tokenisation

Storing recipient bank or card details once means subsequent payouts only carry a recurringDetailReference rather than raw account data. POST /storeDetail tokenises the details and returns a recurringDetailReference; POST /storeDetailAndSubmitThirdParty does both in one call, which is convenient when a new recipient onboards and immediately needs a payout. This reduces PII handling on the integrator side.

Call POST /storeDetail with bank account or card details and shopperReference to receive a recurringDetailReference for future payouts

AI Agent Payout Operations via Jentic

An operations agent that processes daily seller settlements searches Jentic for 'submit an Adyen third-party payout', loads the schema for /submitThirdParty, and executes per seller from the day's settlement file. A second agent or human reviewer with the review credential confirms each payout via /confirmThirdParty. Jentic isolates the two credentials so neither the submitter nor the reviewer ever sees the other's secret.

Search Jentic for 'submit an Adyen third-party payout', load the submitThirdParty schema, then execute one call per seller in the daily settlement file

Why Jentic?

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.

Credential isolation

Both the submitter and reviewer credentials for Adyen Payout are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault as separate entries. Agents receive scoped tokens for one role at a time; raw API keys never appear in the agent's context, preserving the dual-control model.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search by intent (e.g., 'submit a third-party payout' or 'confirm an Adyen payout') and Jentic returns the matching submitThirdParty or confirmThirdParty operation with its input schema, so the agent picks the right endpoint without reading the deprecated-API documentation.

Time to first call

Direct Adyen Payout integration: 2-4 days for two-credential setup, payout state reconciliation, and recipient tokenisation. Through Jentic: under 1 hour — search, load, execute the flow.

FAQs

Specific to using Adyen Payout API through Jentic.

What authentication does the Adyen Payout API use?

The API supports an API key in the X-API-Key header (ApiKeyAuth) and HTTP Basic auth (BasicAuth). Adyen requires two distinct credentials in production: one for storing and submitting payouts, another for confirming or declining them. Through Jentic, both credentials are stored encrypted and exposed only as scoped tokens at execution time.

Can I run an instant payout to a debit card with the Adyen Payout API?

Yes. POST /payout supports push-to-card payouts where the recipient's debit BIN and network allow it. Pass the card details, amount, and recurring.contract in the request. For broader instant payout coverage including bank rails, Adyen recommends migrating to the Transfers API.

Is the Adyen Payout API still recommended for new integrations?

No. Adyen has marked the Payout API as deprecated for new integrations and points to the Transfers API for richer payout state, instant bank payouts, and consolidated webhooks. Existing classic integrations continue to be supported, and this enrichment covers the v68 surface for those integrations.

What are the rate limits for the Adyen Payout API?

Adyen does not publish a fixed numeric rate limit for Payout in the spec; throughput is provisioned per merchant account through your contract and risk profile. If 429 responses appear, contact Adyen support to review the merchant account's payout limits.

How do I submit a third-party payout with the Adyen Payout API through Jentic?

Search Jentic for 'submit an Adyen third-party payout', load the submitThirdParty schema, then execute with recurringDetailReference, amount.value, amount.currency, and merchantAccount. From a separate reviewer credential, call confirmThirdParty with the returned pspReference. Get an account at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up.

Why does the API require two API credentials?

The dual-credential model implements segregation-of-duties: the credential that submits a payout cannot also confirm or decline it, which is a regulatory requirement for many payout flows. POST /submitThirdParty must be called from the submitter credential; POST /confirmThirdParty and POST /declineThirdParty must be called from a distinct review credential.
