User Capabilities
Last updated: July 22, 2026
Depending on your program configuration, users may be enabled for up to real-time account-to-account settlement, account-to-card gross debit eligibility, and unlimited daily card-to-card transfers. The actual capabilities granted to any given user are determined by a multitude of factors including but not limited to the User's KYC status, the User's activity on the platform, your program's setup, and Astra's internal risk assessment.
If a user is downgraded, their capabilities will be reduced to the lowest available tier for each payment type:
Account-to-Account —
max_settlement_speeddrops toT+4, the slowest settlement window.Account-to-Card (Gross Debit) —
is_eligiblebecomesfalse, disabling access to instant disbursements.Card-to-Card —
transfer_count_limitis capped at1transfer per day, andNo Limitfor Users that qualify based on risk profile and activity.
You can check the current capabilities for any user at any time via the List Capabilities for a User endpoint.
On the User Details page in the Astra Dashboard, you can see the same capabilities at the top right of the page.
