Qiwi launches open API money transfer service

Qiwi has launched an open API money transfer service for its customers, giving users the chance to customize their own way of receiving funds. The new service makes it easier and safer for users to accept money transfers by removing the use of personal data from such transactions, instead using a short link. The open API supports billing, cancellations and receipts.

Qiwi also plans on exploring a turnkey solution for the self-employed that will allow them to accept payments for their services and send tax deductions automatically.
