Notes
Klasha Swap Statuses
When you generate a quote and confirm the swap, one of the field in the response body is transactionStatus, here you can find all the possible cases and explanation:
PENDING: this is the status when a swap gets initialised through the API. This is not a final status.
SUCCESSFUL: the swap was executed successfully. Final status.
CANCELLED: The swap has been cancelled from the Klasha finance/operation team, in result of previous communication with the merchant. Final status.
FAILED: the initiated swap failed to be executed. Final status.
Quote expiry logic
After you proceeded generating your quote, you can now convert that quote to confirm a swap transactions.
The confirmation would be successful if the quote is NOT expired.
A quote does not expire because of time but just if the rate in our system changed.
Example
If you generate a quote on 1st Oct at 11am and at 3pm the rate changes, you can convert your quote into a initiated payment until 2:59:59pm. Right after, then the rate get updated at 3pm, you won’t be able to confirm the swap with that quote and you’d have to generate a new quote.
In case you try to initiate a payment with an expired quote, you’d have a Bad Request response with the the following body:
