Smart Router for Payouts

Pesaswap’s Smart Router allows you to configure intelligent routing rules for payouts, helping you optimize success rates, reduce fees, and increase control over how funds are disbursed through different processors.
Note: Routing rules for payouts are distinct from payments. Configuring one does not affect the other.

Getting Started

Routing rules can be configured using Pesaswap’s dashboard (beta feature) or via APIs. We will be using Pesaswap’s dashboard as it provides a simple, intuitive UI for configuring these rules. Routing rules can be set up in two ways:
  • Via Pesaswap Dashboard (Recommended - easy UI)
  • Via APIs
We’ll focus on the Dashboard approach here. 🔗 Dashboard URL: https://app.pesaswap.io

Pre-requisites

Before setting up payout routing:
  • Make sure you’ve integrated at least two payout processors with your Pesaswap account.
  • Follow this guide to integrate payout connectors (replace with actual link).

Steps to Configure Payout Routing Rules

Step 1: Go to Payout Routing Section

  • Navigate to: Workflow → Payout Routing

Step 2: Choose Routing Rule Type

You can choose from three available routing strategies:
Routing TypeDescription
Volume-Based RoutingRoute based on volume thresholds per connector
Rule-Based RoutingDefine rules based on payout attributes (e.g. country, amount)
Default Fallback RoutingFallback order if no rule matches
Click on the desired type to configure.

Step 3: View Existing Rules

All your created routing rules will be visible on the main page of the Payout Routing section.

Step 4: Activate a Routing Rule

  • Only one routing rule can be active at a time.
  • To activate, select a rule, then click “Activate Configuration.”

Step 5: No Rule Active?

If no custom rule is activated, Pesaswap will route payouts using the Default Fallback Priority, which is the order in which connectors are listed.
