The Entity Attributes endpoint provides aggregated financial attributes for an Entity, computed from the Entity’s connected accounts. Attributes are organized by category (credit card, personal loan, mortgage, HELOC, overall, delinquency, Direct Pay, installment, and other) and cover utilization, balances, trends, delinquency signals, and Method Direct Pay activity. The Entity Attributes endpoint is available as a:

Attribute Objects

Available Attributes

Attributes are grouped by category (the kind of liability they describe) and tagged with the bundles they belong to. See Available Bundles for the curated groupings you can subscribe to with a single name.

Revolving Credit Card

Personal Loan

Mortgage

HELOC

Overall

Delinquency

Direct Pay

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

Installment

Other

Velocity

Cross-Account

Autopay

Wallet

Wallet attributes belong to the Wallet Intelligence bundle. The attributes below describe the wallet as a whole and are returned by this endpoint. The bundle’s remaining members describe a single card and are returned by requesting wallet_intelligence on the Account Attributes endpoint, which lists them in full.
The card counts return 0 only when every credit card could be classified. If any card lacks a usable signal and none of the remaining cards match, the attribute returns an insufficient data error instead — so a 0 always means “none”, never “could not tell”.
The velocity enum differs by resource, deliberately. An Account returns new_account for a card too young to regress over the window; an Entity returns new_to_credit, which describes the person rather than one card. Both share the five movement values.
utilization_velocity_* returns new_to_credit only when every card in the wallet has a known open date and all of them are younger than the window’s cutoff (6, 10 and 14 weeks for the 4-, 8- and 12-week windows). One long-held card is enough to keep the wallet out of that label, and a card with no usable open date blocks it rather than being skipped.

Available Bundles

Bundles are curated groupings of attributes you can subscribe to with a single name instead of listing each attribute individually. Pass them via the bundles field on the attribute subscription payload. At least one of bundles or requested_attributes must be provided — the two can be combined to subscribe to a bundle plus additional individual attributes.

Wallet Intelligence

Bundle name: wallet_intelligence Per-card intelligence for issuers and wallet apps that need to understand where each credit card sits in a consumer’s wallet, how spend is trending, and what the card is best used for. Powers wallet ranking, optimal-card-for-purchase logic, and targeted reactivation offers.
Wallet Intelligence spans both resources. Requesting it on an Entity returns the wallet-wide members documented under Wallet; requesting it on an Account returns that card’s members. Each endpoint returns the members that resource can express — an entity request does not fan the bundle out into per-card responses.
Enrollment:
Included attributes:
On an Entity — the wallet as a whole:
  • Wallet state: utilization, purchasing_power
  • Spend velocity: utilization_velocity_4_week, utilization_velocity_8_week, utilization_velocity_12_week
  • Wallet composition: healthy_cards_count, dormant_cards_count, delinquent_cards_count, net_active_cards_count
On an Account — the individual card:
  • Card state: usage_pattern, utilization, utilization_bucket, purchasing_power
  • Spend velocity: utilization_velocity_4_week, utilization_velocity_8_week, utilization_velocity_12_week
  • Wallet position: spend_concentration_4_week, spend_concentration_8_week, spend_concentration_12_week, current_wallet_rank
  • Activity: weeks_since_last_activity, recent_balance_spike_flag
  • Timing & metadata: account_age, brand_category, brand_tier, optimal_charge_date (coming soon)
Wallet Intelligence is in active development. Contact your Method CSM for availability and early-access enrollment.

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.
  • delinquent_balance_total may return a partial aggregate. When that happens, the attribute includes metadata.partial, metadata.accounts_with_data, and metadata.accounts_total.
  • 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.
