API reference

A deposit account gives one customer a fixed place to send you money again and again: a permanent crypto address on each blockchain, and a bank account number for fiat transfers. The customer reuses the same details for every payment, and CoinCircuit detects each deposit, ties it to that customer, and credits it to your balance.

How deposit accounts work: each account issues static crypto addresses and an NGN virtual account, and every deposit is routed to your balance

How it works

  1. Create a deposit account with POST /api/v1/deposits/accounts (pass a customerId, or omit it for your parent account).
  2. Issue an identity with POST /api/v1/deposits/accounts/{id}/identities: a static_deposit_address on a chain, or an ngn_virtual_account.
  3. Share the address or account number with your customer.
  4. Track incoming funds with GET /api/v1/deposits and GET /api/v1/deposits/{id}.

Identity fields

Field Type Required Description
type string Yes static_deposit_address or ngn_virtual_account.
chain string Conditional Required for a static address: ethereum, solana, bsc, tron, base, or arbitrum.
bvn string Conditional BVN of the account holder (11 digits). Required for an NGN virtual account.
currency string Conditional NGN. Used for virtual accounts.

Supported tokens

Each static address accepts these tokens on its blockchain:

Blockchain Tokens
Ethereum ETH, USDT, USDC
Solana SOL, USDT, USDC
BSC BNB, USDT, USDC
Tron USDT, TRX
Base ETH, USDC
Arbitrum ETH, USDT, USDC

USDT and USDC deposits credit your balance in the same currency. Any other token is automatically converted to USDT and credited to your USDT balance. The deposit record keeps the original token and amount, with a conversion showing the rate and the USDT credited.

Use cases

Static addresses are supported on Ethereum, Solana, BSC, Tron, Base, and Arbitrum. Because each identity is fixed per customer, you always know who sent what.
