Swap funds from one currency to another at the current exchange rate. Use a rateToken from the /wallet/rates endpoint to lock in a specific rate.

​
Example Request

curl -X POST "https://api.rolla.xyz/api/v1/external/wallet/swap" \
  -H "X-API-Key: your_api_key_here" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "fromCurrency": "USD",
    "toCurrency": "NGN",
    "fromAmount": 1000,
    "description": "Convert USD to NGN",
    "rateToken": "rt_abc123def456"
  }'

​
Example Response

{
  "success": true,
  "message": "Swap completed successfully",
  "data": {}
}
The fromCurrency and toCurrency must be different. If you don’t provide a rateToken, the swap will execute at the current market rate which may differ from the last quoted rate.
