How to Display US Disclaimers (For US Users only)

Show the right terms and disclaimers to US users before they place an order.
View as Markdown

Every order for a US user is executed by a specific provider, and the user must agree to that provider’s terms before placing the order. The Get Quote API tells you which terms apply through the termsIds field, so you can show the matching disclaimer in your own UI.

How it works?

1

Call the Get Quote API with the user's authentication headers

Call the Get Quote API with the headers for your authentication method:

Authentication methodHeaders to pass
White-label Authauthorization: the user’s access token
Auth Reliancex-access-token: your partner access token
x-user-identifier: the user’s email address

Without these headers, Transak cannot identify the user, and termsIds is returned as an empty array for US quotes.

2

Read the termsIds from the response

The response contains a termsIds array with the agreements that apply to this quote:

{
  "data": {
    "termsIds": ["ZEROHASH_USER_AGREEMENT"],
    "quoteId": "097a4e42-553d-4162-834f-b02006cf0dd7",
    "fiatCurrency": "USD",
    "cryptoCurrency": "USDC",
    "network": "ethereum",
    ...
  }
}

The terms depend on the provider that fulfils the order, so they can change when the user changes the crypto asset or network. Read termsIds from every quote you fetch.

3

Show the disclaimer for each ID

For each ID in termsIds, show the matching disclaimer from the Terms IDs section below on the screen where the user confirms the order.

  • Show the full text. Don’t shorten it or hide part of it behind a “See more” link.
  • Keep all links clickable.
  • If termsIds contains more than one ID, show every disclaimer.
4

Place the order

Once the user has seen the disclaimer and confirmed, create the order with the quoteId from the same quote.
