Create an exchange connection

Start an exchange order for a registered account, then show Swapped’s hosted Connect flow in your app. Headless means you do not use the Rhinestone widget; users still complete the provider flow in Swapped’s UI.

How it works

Your backend starts an order with POST /onramp/orders and kind: "exchange".
Your app shows the hosted flow in an iframe or in-app browser.
The user chooses an exchange and completes the transfer in Swapped’s hosted flow.
The order advances through its stages, pushed as ramp-order webhooks.
The funded crypto lands on the account and enters the standard deposit pipeline.

Prerequisites

The account is registered. Starting an order for an account that is not registered to your project returns 403 Unauthorized.
A webhook URL is configured if you want order updates pushed rather than polled.
Calls are made from your backend. The endpoints require your API key, which never ships in client-side code.

const DEPOSIT_SERVICE_URL =
  "https://v1.orchestrator.rhinestone.dev/deposit-processor";
const API_KEY = "YOUR_RHINESTONE_API_KEY";

Start an order

const response = await fetch(`${DEPOSIT_SERVICE_URL}/onramp/orders`, {
    method: "POST",
    headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json", "x-api-key": API_KEY },
    body: JSON.stringify({
        provider: "swapped",
        kind: "exchange",
        account: "0xUSER_ACCOUNT_ADDRESS",
        connection: "binance",
    }),
});

const { orderId, nextAction, expiresAt } = await response.json();

provider, kind, and account are required. There’s no amount or payment-method prefill; the user chooses those inside the exchange flow. The optional fields:

Field	Type	Description
`connection`	`string`	Preselects the exchange or wallet (e.g. `"binance"`)
`connections`	`string[]`	Your allowlist. Requires `connection`, which must be one of them; an unknown slug returns `400`
`baseCountry`	`string`	User’s country (ISO 3166-1 alpha-2)
`baseCurrencyCode`	`string`	Fiat currency code
`locale`	`string`	Flow language
`merchantName`	`string`	Name shown on Swapped’s confirm screen
`merchantLogoUrl`	`string`	HTTPS logo shown beside `merchantName`

connections is not forwarded to Swapped, whose picker is configured per partner. Only connection narrows what a session shows, which is why declaring an allowlist without one is refused. The response matches the onramp checkout response: 202 with orderId, nextAction, and expiresAt. Full schema: POST /onramp/orders.

List exchanges

List the connections to offer:

const response = await fetch(
    `${DEPOSIT_SERVICE_URL}/onramp/options?provider=swapped&kind=exchange`,
    { headers: { "x-api-key": API_KEY } },
);
const { connections } = await response.json();
// [{ connection: "binance", name: "Binance", logoUrl: null, kind: "exchange", appHandoff: "none" }, …]

By default this lists the centralized exchanges. Pass connectionKind=wallet or connectionKind=all for Web3 wallets, or connections=binance,coinbase to resolve your own allowlist. Inside an embedded browser, offer no kind: "wallet" entry: that rail hands off to a wallet app over a URL scheme the container can’t open. Full schema: GET /onramp/options.

Show the hosted connection flow

Embed nextAction.url in an iframe with the permissions needed by the provider:

<iframe src={nextAction.url} allow="payment; camera; microphone; clipboard-write" />

In a mobile app, open the URL in an in-app browser (SFSafariViewController on iOS, Chrome Custom Tabs on Android) rather than a plain WebView. Camera access and provider authentication can be restricted in bare WebViews. The URL has no redirect or callback parameter. Detect completion through the ramp-order webhook or by polling the order, then dismiss the provider UI from your own interface.

A user who abandons the connection flow produces no terminal event. Apply your own timeout when waiting on an order.

Migrate from the legacy routes

POST /onramp/swapped/connect-url and GET /onramp/swapped/connect-exchanges have been removed and return 404. Move to POST /onramp/orders with kind: "exchange" (smartAccount becomes account) and GET /onramp/options?provider=swapped&kind=exchange (the old kind filter becomes connectionKind, and the list is connections instead of exchanges). The mapping of the response is the same as for checkouts.
