Confirmation of Payee 2 min read

Confirmation of Payee (CoP) lets a TPP verify that an IBAN belongs to the named account holder before a payment is initiated. The check happens outside the consent and authorisation flow — it requires no user interaction, runs against the LFI that holds the destination account, and returns a name-match result in real time.
