SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol) is a secure way to exchange files between systems. It is one of the most popular Host-to-Host (H2H) protocols.

  • amnis places files (e.g., account statements, card transactions) in an encrypted “data vault.”

  • The partner system can automatically retrieve these files.

  • The reverse direction (uploading files to amnis) is currently not offered.

In principle, all file types can be transferred via SFTP. Common formats include ISO 20022 XML files (PAIN and CAMT) or CSV files. What matters is that the systems on both sides can process these formats.

How do I set up SFTP, and how much does it cost?

SFTP is available depending on your subscription plan. Certain integrations are included in specific packages, while others may only be available in higher tiers.
