# Create Loan Payment

`POST /1.0/createLoanPayment`

Use the Create Loan Payment endpoint when a customer requests to make a payment on a loan. The endpoint supports two types of payments today - payments from a primary account where Galileo orchestrates debiting the DDA and paying the loan, or payments from an 'external' account where the program manager accepts the funds and Galileo only manifests the loan payment.

 For optional parameters, do not pass an empty string or null value.
