The end user can be very intentional about what data they share and who they share it with. The client, or partner, can connect with the Secure Exchange solution to make sure the data that is shared is done so in a safe, seamless way. Quick overview of the benefits of the Secure Exchange solution for your business and end users:

• Generate limited permission tokenized access between ecosystem partner and Dwolla.

Creating an Exchange

The creation of an exchange serves as the “hand-shake” between Dwolla and a trusted ecosystem partner. Depending on the integration partner, there may be fine-grained permissions applied to the exchange which limits the scope of data that can be accessed on an end-user’s behalf. Refer to the relevant ecosystem partner documentation for more information such as access duration, API call limits and product functionality. Currently, Dwolla only supports connections with certain data aggregators for the purposes of retrieving ACH account details.
