# Remove a saved recipient (free)

`DELETE /payment-recipients`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://laso.finance`
- URL: `https://laso.finance/payment-recipients`
- Auth: API key in header `Authorization`

Removes a saved Venmo or PayPal recipient. Payment history is kept; only the saved entry stops being offered.

This is not reversible through the API, so prefer archiving (`POST /payment-recipients` with `archived: true`) when the account owner may want the recipient back, and confirm before removing someone they did not ask you to remove.

`platform` and `recipient_id` may be sent in the JSON body or the query string. Requires a Bearer token from `/auth` or `/get-card`.

## Query parameters

- `platform` 'venmo' | 'paypal'
- `recipient_id` string

## Response `200`

The recipient was removed.

- object
  - `user_id` string
  - `recipient_id` string
  - `deleted` boolean
