Tink
European open banking from Visa: account checks, transactions and income data, payments in 19 markets, UK sweeping VRP and settlement accounts.
What it does
Each capability by country. Integrated means Unirail’s adapter does it today; listed means Tink offers it according to its public documentation, and Unirail can’t route it yet.

Custody
Who holds the money while a payment through Tink is in flight. Unirail records custody on every leg, and your routing policy decides which kinds are allowed.
- noneNo custody
Nobody holds the money. The payer’s bank pays the payee’s bank directly; the provider only instructs it.
- provider-transitProvider holds in transit
The provider holds the money between collecting it from the payer and paying it out to the payee. Routes like this only appear in quotes when your routing policy admits provider-transit custody.
An environment whose policy admits only none still sees these routes in quotes, marked infeasible with this reason.
Who is regulated
Tink (a Visa company) under its own licence.
With your own contract, you stay the provider’s customer. Unirail acts as your technical service provider and calls Tink with your credentials.
