Request a SEPA Direct Debit (SDD)

Use this endpoint to initiate SEPA Direct Debits, which are submitted to the bank every business day at 10:30 AM CET.

Prerequisites

  1. Collect and pre‑register your client’s mandate via POST /moneyins/sdd/mandate.
  2. Complete the electronic-signature flow with POST /documents/{documentid}/signinit.

Request flow

  1. Call POST /moneyins/sdd/init to schedule a debit.
  2. Each business day at 10:30 AM CET, Lemonway forwards all pending DD requests to the bank.
  3. The client’s account is debited ~1 business day later (or on the specified date if you included one).
  4. When funds arrive, Lemonway validates the payment and credits the client’s payment account.
  5. Query GET /moneyins/sdd (daily) or use notifications to see which payments have been validated.

Special rule for Italian IBANs

  • Only the first B2B Direct Debit on an Italian IBAN incurs a ~14‑day mandate‑validation period. Even if you request an earlier date, the actual debit happens 14 calendar days after submission.
  • All subsequent debits on that IBAN follow the standard 1–2 business‑day schedule.

Example

  • Submission: March 30, 2022 (before 10:30 AM CET), requested debit date April 4, 2022
  • Actual debit date: April 18, 2022 (14 days after request)

Important: Whenever you see accountId in a path or body parameter, enter your wallet’s ID.
