For Agents
Provision and manage 8B World admin accounts, settlement accounts, settlement instruments, and contacts via a bearer-authenticated REST API. Use it to run back-office configuration tasks for a payment processing program.
Use for: I need to create a new admin account in 8B World, Refresh the 8B World access token before it expires, List all admin accounts in summary form, Update the status of an admin account to suspended
Not supported: Does not handle card acquiring, fraud scoring, or end-customer checkout — use for back-office admin and settlement configuration only.
Jentic publishes the only available OpenAPI specification for 8B World Payment API, keeping it validated and agent-ready. The 8B World Payment API is a payment processing platform interface for managing the back-office accounts that underpin merchant settlement. It exposes admin account lifecycle, settlement account configuration, settlement instrument provisioning, and contact management, all gated by an OAuth-issued bearer token. Sixteen endpoints cover authorization, account creation and updates, status changes, and listing summaries used to operate a payment program at scale.
Install Jentic One Beta
Connect the 8B World Payment API to your agent
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the 8B World Payment API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh2
Step 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.
Capabilities
What an agent can do with 8B World Payment API.
Authenticate admin sessions and refresh tokens through the OAuth client-credentials endpoints
Create, retrieve, and update admin accounts that own settlement configuration
Toggle admin account status to activate, suspend, or close an operator
Provision and update settlement accounts that route funds to merchant bank details
Register settlement instruments (cards, bank rails) tied to a settlement account
Add and update contacts attached to settlement accounts for notifications and approvals
Pull a short-info list of admin accounts for back-office dashboards
Use Cases
Patterns agents use 8B World Payment API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Merchant Onboarding for a Payment Program
When a payment program operator brings a new merchant onto 8B World, the back office must create the admin account, attach a settlement account with the correct bank details, register the settlement instrument, and add finance and operations contacts. The 8B World Payment API exposes each of these steps as discrete endpoints, so onboarding can be scripted end-to-end rather than entered through a portal. A complete onboarding sequence runs in under a minute once authentication is in place.
Create an admin account, then create a linked settlement account with merchant bank IBAN, then register a card settlement instrument, and verify status is active
Settlement Configuration Updates
Settlement details change frequently in payment operations: a merchant updates a bank account, a finance contact rotates, or a settlement instrument is replaced. The 8B World Payment API supports targeted PUT and PATCH operations on settlement accounts, settlement instruments, and contacts, so update flows can run without rebuilding the entire admin record. This keeps settlement reliable when underlying details change mid-cycle.
Update the bank account on settlement account ID 1234 and patch the admin account status to active
Operator Status Management
Compliance and risk teams need to suspend or restore admin accounts quickly when issues are detected. The 8B World Payment API offers a dedicated PATCH endpoint on the admin account status field, separating routine updates from sensitive status transitions. This lets reviewers act in near real time without exposing the rest of the admin record to mass updates.
Patch the status of admin account ID 7821 to suspended and confirm the change with a follow-up GET
Agent-Driven Back-Office Automation
AI agents can drive 8B World admin tasks through Jentic without browsing the portal or hand-rolling auth. A single Jentic search returns the right operation along with its input schema, and credentials stay isolated in the Jentic vault. Agents handle ticket-driven onboarding and updates while humans review the resulting records.
Search Jentic for 'create an 8B World admin account', load the schema, and execute the call with the merchant's details

Why Jentic?
Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.
Credential isolation
8B World bearer tokens are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault. Agents call operations by ID and Jentic injects the Authorization header at execution time, so the raw token never enters the agent's context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search by intent (e.g., 'create an 8B World settlement account') and Jentic returns the matching operation with its input schema, so the agent can call POST /api/v1/admin-accounts/settlement-accounts directly.
Time to first call
Direct integration: 1-2 days to wire up OAuth, refresh logic, and error handling across the 16 endpoints. Through Jentic: under an hour — search, load schema, execute.

FAQs
Specific to using 8B World Payment API through Jentic.
Why is there no official OpenAPI spec for 8B World Payment API?
8B World does not publish an OpenAPI specification. Jentic generates and maintains this spec so that AI agents and developers can call 8B World Payment API via structured tooling. It is validated against the live API and kept up to date. Get started at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up.
What authentication does the 8B World Payment API use?
The API uses HTTP bearer authentication. Clients first call POST /api/v1/admin-accounts/oauth/authorize to obtain an access token, then send it as Authorization: Bearer <token> on every subsequent call. Through Jentic, the bearer token is held in the Jentic vault and injected at execution time, so the raw token never reaches the agent's prompt.
Can I create and update settlement accounts with the 8B World Payment API?
Yes. POST /api/v1/admin-accounts/settlement-accounts creates a settlement account, GET /api/v1/admin-accounts/settlement-accounts/{id} retrieves it, and PUT on the same path updates it. Settlement instruments and contacts attached to the account each have their own endpoints under /api/v1/admin-accounts/settlement-instruments and /api/v1/admin-accounts/settlement-accounts-contacts.
How do I suspend an admin account through Jentic?
Search Jentic for 'change admin account status' to find PATCH /api/v1/admin-accounts/{id}/status, load the schema, and execute the call with the new status value. Jentic returns the structured response so an agent can verify the change with a follow-up GET on the same admin account ID.
What are the rate limits for the 8B World Payment API?
The OpenAPI spec does not document explicit rate limits. Treat the API as standard back-office tooling: serialize bursts of writes and add retry with backoff for any 429 or 5xx responses. Confirm production limits with 8B World support before high-volume use.
How do I terminate an 8B World session?
Call POST /api/v1/admin-accounts/oauth/logout with the active bearer token to invalidate the session. Through Jentic, this can be wired into an agent's cleanup step so credentials are not left active longer than necessary.
