# Disable a linked bank account

> Disable a linked bank account for future use.

Financial history and the masked identity are retained, and repeated disables keep the original disable date. If the bank account is the preferred settlement destination, change the preference first.

Encrypted bank details, in every enabled country, become eligible for deletion after 30 days. Unsettled settlement references defer that cleanup.

  summary: Backend API for UPAs, Payments, activity, and optional financial products.
  description: >

    Use this API from a trusted partner backend with an app ID and app secret.


    ## Recommended integration


    1. Call `GET /v2/partners/config` to verify credentials and discover enabled
    capabilities.

    2. Create a UPA only when your product needs a persistent Stableyard
    account.

    3. Create a receive or send Payment with `POST /v2/payments`.

    4. Redirect a payer to the returned `paymentUrl` or pass the Payment
    credentials to an official Stableyard interface SDK.

    5. Process signed webhooks and fetch the Payment by ID for reconciliation.


    Checkout execution and account-bound browser endpoints are intentionally
    documented in the separate Interfaces & SDKs reference. Console endpoints
    are dashboard implementation details and are not part of the partner
    integration contract.
