Account

The Swan account model: country, language, type and level, balances, transactions, statements, bank details, and statuses.

Use Swan accounts to receive and initiate payments, as well as deposit money. All money moves through accounts, so if you're using Swan, you're using an account.

Swan accounts are based in euros (€) and are represented by an IBAN and a name. Get information about the account with the account query, and update information such as the name with the updateAccount mutation.

Accounts, along with account holders, are created during the account onboarding process.
