At present, accounts can be created as trading or fiat accounts and are required before a Customer can generate quotes or execute a trade or transfer.
To create accounts for your Bank, omit the customer_guid parameter in the request body. To create accounts for your Customers, include the customer_guid parameter in the request body.
At the bank level, invoice_operations accounts can be configured to pre-fund your customers' Lightning Network operations.
