Remote Host Authorization (RHA)

Overview

Remote Host Authorization is a functionality where you can approve a transaction from the card that was created by your customers

  • You can issue cards with your own account issuance license
  • You will decide your own authorization parameters, whether it be balance, spending policy, etc.

How it works

When a transaction is initiated, StraitsX will provide the necessary details for you to decide whether to approve or decline a transaction. Depending on your response, StraitsX will then accept/reject the transaction.
A follow up webhook will be then sent to your webhook endpoint notifying of the final result. You will be able to utilize the notification to make the right adjustment to the cardholder's account.
