Quickstart
Get a working sandbox payout in under 2 minutes. For an overview of what Borderli Pay Outs does and how it works, see the Overview.
Sandbox credentials
API key: brly_test_key_001 — pre-configured for all sandbox endpoints.
Quick path: single request
The /v1/pay endpoint resolves a QR code and executes the payment in one call. Execution requires payer identity — payer_name, payer_account, and payer_tax_id.
curl -X POST https://apidocs.borderli.io/v1/pay \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "x-api-key: brly_test_key_001" \
-H "Idempotency-Key: quickstart-pay-001" \
-d '{
"qr_string": "PIX:quickstart_test",
"payer_name": "Maria Silva",
"payer_account": "0001234567",
"payer_tax_id": "12345678909"
}'
Response:
{
"transaction": {
"id": "txn_01J...",
"instructionId": "ins_01J...",
"status": "completed",
"rail": "mock",
"createdAt": "2026-05-11T10:00:00.000Z",
"updatedAt": "2026-05-11T10:00:00.000Z"
},
"request_id": "550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000"
}
Step-by-step: resolve then execute
Use this flow when you need to inspect the payment instruction before executing — for example, to show the user the amount and creditor before confirming.
Step 1: Resolve the QR code
curl -X POST https://apidocs.borderli.io/v1/resolve \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "x-api-key: brly_test_key_001" \
-d '{
"qr_string": "PIX:quickstart_test"
}'
Response includes the parsed payment instruction:
{
"instruction": {
"id": "ins_01J...",
"amount": 1000,
"currency": "BRL",
"creditor": {
"name": "Padaria do Centro",
"account": "merchant-pix-key@example.com"
},
"scheme": "pix",
"country": "BR",
"confidence": 0.95,
...
},
"request_id": "..."
}
Step 2: Execute the payment
curl -X POST https://apidocs.borderli.io/v1/execute \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "x-api-key: brly_test_key_001" \
-H "Idempotency-Key: quickstart-exec-001" \
-d '{
"instruction_id": "ins_01J...",
"payer_name": "Maria Silva",
"payer_account": "0001234567",
"payer_tax_id": "12345678909"
}'
Step 3: Check transaction status
curl https://apidocs.borderli.io/v1/transactions/txn_01J... \
-H "x-api-key: brly_test_key_001"
With FX conversion
If your wallet uses a different currency than the payment, include wallet_currency to get an automatic FX quote:
curl -X POST https://apidocs.borderli.io/v1/pay \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "x-api-key: brly_test_key_001" \
-H "Idempotency-Key: quickstart-fx-001" \
-d '{
"qr_string": "PIX:quickstart_test",
"wallet_currency": "USD",
"payer_name": "Maria Silva",
"payer_account": "0001234567",
"payer_tax_id": "12345678909"
}'
