CadRemit API Integration & OpenData Solutions

Data Available for Integration (OpenData Inventory)

Our protocol analysis exposes the following structured data points, enabling deep OpenBanking-style integration even without public APIs.

Technical Implementation & API Snippets

Below are examples of how our delivered solution interacts with the underlying CadRemit infrastructure. We handle all session management, device fingerprinting, and payload signing required by the app's security model.

1. Fetching Multi-Currency Wallet Balances

// GET /api/v1/user/wallets/summary
// Headers: Authorization: Bearer {session_token}, X-Device-ID: {fingerprint}

const getWalletBalances = async () => {
  const response = await cadRemitClient.fetch('/wallets/summary');
  return response.data.map(wallet => ({
    currency: wallet.currency_code, // 'CAD', 'NGN', 'USD', 'EUR', 'CMT'
    available_balance: wallet.available_balance,
    virtual_account_routing: wallet.account_details?.routing_number || null,
    last_updated: wallet.updated_at
  }));
};

2. Initiating a Cross-Border Transfer (Push-To-Card)

// POST /api/v1/transfers/initiate
// Simulating the exact payload format required by the CadRemit backend

{
  "source_currency": "CAD",
  "destination_currency": "NGN",
  "amount": 500.00,
  "transfer_method": "PUSH_TO_CARD",
  "recipient": {
    "card_token": "tok_1A2b3C4d...",
    "name": "John Doe"
  },
  "fee_tier": "ZERO_FEE_PROMO"
}
// Response includes transfer_id, estimated_delivery, and applied_fx_rate

Architecture & Compliance

Data Flow Architecture

• 1. Authentication Layer: Our middleware securely stores CadRemit credentials and handles MFA/OTP via programmatic intercepts or user-provided tokens.
• 2. Request Engine: Python/Node.js workers simulate genuine app traffic (matching iOS/Android headers) to request statement data or submit transfer payloads.
• 3. Data Normalization: Raw JSON responses from CadRemit are cleansed, standardized, and mapped to OpenBanking schemas.
• 4. Delivery/Integration: The normalized data is pushed to your database, ERP, or exposed locally via a REST API endpoint for your internal systems to consume.

Compliance & Privacy Standards

Operating in the cross-border remittance space requires strict adherence to international financial regulations. CadRemit is regulated by FINTRAC in Canada. Our integration solutions are designed with compliance-first principles:

• Data Minimization: We only extract data explicitly required for your business logic (e.g., hiding PII if only aggregate volumes are needed).
• Local Data Laws: Integrations involving European users are built to respect GDPR data export and right-to-be-forgotten mandates. Integrations touching Nigerian accounts adhere to NDPR guidelines.
• Secure Transit: All API wrappers utilize AES-256 encryption for stored session tokens and TLS 1.3 for data in transit.

Market Positioning & User Profile

CadRemit primarily serves the diaspora community, international students, and freelancers across North America, Europe, and Nigeria. Its core user base relies on the app for high-speed, low-cost liquidity movement. By integrating with CadRemit, B2B platforms can tap into this active demographic, offering seamless tuition payments, payroll distributions, and multi-currency treasury management without building proprietary banking infrastructure.
