Over the counter (OTC) purchases or Vaultoro Direct within the dashboard allow you to buy and sell assets quickly at market rates.

Create Quote

POST https://api.vaultoro.com/v1/private/orders/otc

This OTC endpoint allows you to fetch a BUY/SELL quote for a pair before committing to the purchase. Your quote price will be valid for 30 seconds from the time of request. You can send in a quantity or total with your request. The quantity represents the amount of the baseHandle you wish to buy or sell. And the total is the total to spend. For example, you want to buy GOLD with BTC. Sending in quantity 1 - you're getting 1 gram of Gold for BTC. However, if you send in the total value, your quote will assume you want to spend 1 BTC.
