RazorpayX **Payouts Pro** is a Multi-bank Routing feature which allows you to set primary, secondary and tertiary accounts and helps avoid payout failures by detecting bank downtimes. While [Intelligent Payouts](/docs/x/payouts/intelligent-payouts) prevents the money from being blocked, Multi-bank Routing changes the account of the transaction and prevents payment delays in real-time.

* **Payouts Pro** instantly detects bank degradations and immediately switches between two or more RazorpayX powered Current Accounts or RazorpayX Lite, thus improving success rates.
* This process is entirely automated and you will receive the debit account number in the API and webhook responses informing you the account from which the payout was finally done.
* Your payments will no longer be stuck in processing.
* You can enable Payouts Pro if you have more than one bank account registered with RazorpayX (Current/Escrow/Lite).

<Warning>
  **Watch Out!**

  * Dynamic Multi-bank Routing is applicable only to payouts made via [Payout APIs](/docs/api/x/payouts).
  * RazorpayX Lite is currently not available for new merchants. To set up a new RazorpayX account, refer to [Current Account](/docs/x/account-types/current-account).
</Warning>

## How It Works

Consider the following scenario:

* Name of the business: **Acme Corp**
* Number of accounts: **3**
* The different accounts enabled and set in priority by **Acme Corp** for UPI:
  * Primary bank account: **RBL Bank**
  * First backup account: **Yes Bank**
  * Second backup account: RazorpayX **Lite**

<Info>
  **Handy Tips**

  If you do not have a backup current account or cannot open one, you can use RazorpayX Lite as your backup account.
</Info>

Let us consider a scenario where Acme Corp has initiated five payouts through UPI.

* After 3 payouts, RBL Bank which is the primary bank started facing a downtime.
* The remaining 2 payouts are now deducted from Yes Bank.
* While the payouts are being made via Yes Bank, we parallelly check whether the downtime has been resolved at RBL Bank.
* Once the downtime is resolved, the rest of the payouts are re-routed through RBL Bank.
* Else, they are processed from Yes Bank.
  This process is entirely automated and can be reconciled easily by accurately identifying the debit account number from the API and webhook responses.
