Use this endpoint to activate or deactivate an account you own. You can toggle an account between active and inactive states to control whether it can send or receive funds. This is useful for temporarily suspending activity on a branch account or re-enabling one after a review.
You can only switch accounts between active and inactive. Accounts in a blocked or closed state cannot be modified through this endpoint — contact support@payrep.com to resolve those cases.
