Authentication

In order to authenticate towards DePay's APIs you need an API key.

In order to authenticate towards DePay's APIs, you need to pass your API Key via the x-api-key header:

x-api-key: Th1406MN7L796p9fM8lHTa79jrtNorXW2duHYZkY

Test Key​

For testing purposes, DePay provides a public API key which is not recommended for any systems in production, as it's shared with the public and heavily rate-limited. We also rotate the public api key on a recurring basis.

Issue an API Key​

Once you're ready to move your integration to production, you will need to issue your own API key.

Go to DePay App > API > Issue Api Key.

You will need to have an active DePay PRO subscription in order to issue and maintain an active API key.

Limitations​

Every API Key is limited to max. 10 requests/second (10 requests burst) and 14'400 requests/day.
