# Bank Account Validation

The Bank Accounts Validation API allows you to verify if a bank account is not only valid, but also if it exists and can receive funds.

We do this by using the same algorithm the banks use to create and validate the accounts and by making a *micro-deposit* that verifies the account exists and is able to receive funds.
