# Payments Optimization

> A dedicated endpoint to return all insights and information necessary to perform and optimize your user payments.

## Overview

Flinks built the `Payments Optimization` feature in order to allow your teams to understand and optimize the chance of a user's payments being successful in the future. It allows you to quickly and easily verify if a user's balances and cash flow can support a payment of a given amount, as well as understand the most optimal day(s) to set up the corresponding payment.

This API works by ingesting information from your teams and combining that with the end user's data. This produces a simplified output that provides all the information needed to set up a payment schedule.
