Direct Pay attributes are added to completed Entity Attribute responses. They are not supported in v2 subscription requested_attributes.

These attributes are computed on a per-account basis and surfaced when the parent entity is enrolled in Ready to Pay.

Attribute Value Notes

  • Attribute values are returned in cents when the description says “in cents”.
  • usage_pattern returns revolver, transactor, dormant, or closed. Unknown or unavailable source values return insufficient_data.
  • delinquency_flag_credit_cards returns on_time or overdue. Unknown or unavailable source values return insufficient_data.
  • Boolean delinquency flags return false only when Method has at least one usable non-delinquent signal. If there is no usable signal, the attribute returns null with an insufficient data error.
  • delinquency_worst_dpd_bucket maps less_than_30 and 30 to 30_dpd, 60 to 60_dpd, 90 to 90_dpd, and 120 or over_120 to 120_plus_dpd.

  • Direct Pay attributes count Method payments with a completed status of sent, posted, cashed, or settled. If no completed Direct Pay payment exists, enrolled_in_direct_pay_previously is false, number_of_direct_pay_in_12_months is 0, and the last payment date and amount return insufficient data.
