Yapily
UK open banking: account linking and single immediate payments across UK banks, with Unirail's own bank picker.
What it does
Each capability by country. Integrated means Unirail’s adapter does it today; listed means Yapily offers it according to its public documentation, and Unirail can’t route it yet.

Custody
Who holds the money while a payment through Yapily is in flight. Unirail records custody on every leg, and your routing policy decides which kinds are allowed.
- noneNo custody
Nobody holds the money. The payer’s bank pays the payee’s bank directly; the provider only instructs it.
Who is regulated
Yapily (Yapily Connect: FCA 827001 in the UK, Bank of Lithuania LB002045 in the EU) or the platform's own licence.
With your own contract, you stay the provider’s customer. Unirail acts as your technical service provider and calls Yapily with your credentials.
