Create a quote
Locks a rate for 10 minutes. The direction is inferred from the currency pair; exactly one side must be NGN. A quote is single-use, consumed by the order created against it.
The rate is all-in: Pulse's pricing adjustment and any required network conversion cost are included in the rate. The API does not add a separate fee to the quoted source or destination amount.
network is required and names the chain the crypto leg settles on. It is never
inferred, since a wrong chain means unrecoverable funds.
Onramp quotes support 10,000–100,000,000 NGN. Offramp quotes support a minimum of 10 USDC or USDT and a maximum amount whose NGN destination is 100,000,000.
