ACCOUNTS
Overview
The Accounts section describes base Calypso API tools used across merchant integrations: account balances, current API user access, supported currencies, exchange rates, and account-level webhooks.
Use these methods before building payment, payout, exchange, report, or invoice flows that depend on account access, currency validation, and current rate data.
