@pollar/core

@pollar 0.11.x. This page documents the 0.11 release line, which talks to SDK API v2. The current release is 0.12, documented under Latest. On 0.11.x the ramp methods answer 410 SDK_RAMPS_MOVED_TO_V3: ramps need 0.12. To move, read the 0.11 -> 0.12 upgrade notes.

Framework-agnostic TypeScript client for Pollar, for Stellar and Solana applications. Use this package directly if you are not using React, or to build custom integrations on top of the Pollar platform.

The client is multichain: a session carries one wallet per chain the app enables (getWallets()), balances and history are per chain, and sendPayment() takes a chain. The transaction builder (buildTx / signTx / submitTx) works on Stellar XDR; on Solana use sendPayment(). See Chain Support for the full matrix.

Version: 0.11.5

npm install @pollar/core

PollarClient

import { PollarClient } from '@pollar/core';

const pollar = new PollarClient({
  apiKey: 'pub_testnet_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
});

Constructor options:

OptionTypeDefaultDescription
apiKeystring—Required. Your Pollar publishable key.
stellarNetworkStellarNetwork'testnet'Target Stellar network: 'testnet' or 'mainnet'.
baseUrlstring'https://sdk.api.pollar.xyz'Override the Pollar API base URL. Pass the origin only: the SDK appends the API version (/v3 from 0.12.0, /v2 in 0.11.x). Useful for self-hosted deployments.
confirmation'auto' | 'prompt''auto'Confirmation policy. 'auto': the SDK settles every signature itself (for a co-signed wallet the device verifies the request against Turnkey and votes on its own). 'prompt': every signature is shown to the user first, whatever the custody. See Co-signed wallets.
cosignManualbooleanfalseKeep the raw cosign_pending outcome instead of letting the SDK settle co-sign requests: your app drives client.cosign itself.
cosignKeyManagerKeyManager—Where the device key of a co-signed wallet lives; defaults to the client's keyManager.
loginTimeoutMsnumber45000How long login() waits for an OAuth / wallet round-trip before failing.

Additional options are supported for non-web runtimes and advanced use: storage, keyManager, walletAdapters (array — see Wallet Adapters), requestTimeoutMs (default 10000), submitTimeoutMs (default 30000), retry, deviceLabel, visibilityProvider, openAuthUrl, oauthRedirectUri, passkey, passkeySign, logLevel, logger, onStorageDegrade, and maxIdleMs. See the PollarClientConfig type for the full list (React Native consumers must inject a storage adapter, and provide openAuthUrl for OAuth).


Authentication

Pollar's built-in authentication providers are Google OAuth, GitHub OAuth, Email OTP, and external Stellar wallets (Freighter and Albedo are auto-registered). You can register more wallet providers — every Stellar Wallets Kit wallet, or Privy embedded wallets — through the walletAdapters config option; see Wallet Adapters. A fifth path, passkey Smart Wallet login, is covered under Smart Wallets. All flows update AuthState, which can be observed via onAuthStateChange.


pollar.login(options)

Unified entry point for starting an authentication flow. For email, this initiates the session and sends the OTP code in a single call. For wallet providers, it connects and authenticates the wallet.

import { WalletType } from '@pollar/core';

// OAuth providers
pollar.login({ provider: 'google' });
pollar.login({ provider: 'github' });

// Email OTP (sends code automatically)
pollar.login({ provider: 'email', email: '[email protected]' });

// Built-in external wallets — provider is the wallet id
pollar.login({ provider: WalletType.FREIGHTER }); // 'freighter-native'
pollar.login({ provider: WalletType.ALBEDO });    // 'albedo-native'

// Any wallet registered via `walletAdapters` — provider is that adapter's id
pollar.login({ provider: 'xbull' });  // Stellar Wallets Kit
pollar.login({ provider: 'privy' });  // Privy embedded wallet

The provider for a wallet is the adapter's type. Built-in Freighter/Albedo use the WalletType enum ('freighter-native' / 'albedo-native'); wallets added through Wallet Adapters use their own ids ('xbull', 'lobstr', 'privy', …).

OptionTypeDescription
provider'google' | 'github' | 'email' | (string & {})Authentication provider, or a registered wallet adapter's id.
emailstringRequired when provider is 'email'.

Email OTP — step-by-step flow

For use cases that require manual control over each step of the email OTP flow (e.g. custom UI), the following methods are available individually:

pollar.beginEmailLogin()

Initializes a new email session. Transitions AuthState to entering_email.

pollar.beginEmailLogin();

pollar.sendEmailCode(email)

Sends the OTP code to the provided email address. Must be called when AuthState.step === 'entering_email'.

pollar.sendEmailCode('[email protected]');

pollar.verifyEmailCode(code)

Verifies the OTP code entered by the user and completes authentication. Must be called when AuthState.step === 'entering_code'.

pollar.verifyEmailCode('123456');

pollar.cancelLogin()

Cancels any in-progress authentication flow and resets AuthState to idle.

pollar.cancelLogin();

pollar.logout()

Signs out the current user, clears the session from storage, and resets all client state.

pollar.logout();

pollar.getAuthState()

Returns the current authentication state synchronously.

const state = pollar.getAuthState();

if (state.step === 'authenticated') {
  console.log(state.session);
}

pollar.onAuthStateChange(callback)

Subscribes to authentication state changes. The callback is invoked immediately with the current state, and on every subsequent change. Returns an unsubscribe function.

const unsubscribe = pollar.onAuthStateChange((state) => {
  if (state.step === 'authenticated') {
    console.log('Logged in:', state.session);
  }
});

// Later:
unsubscribe();

Wallet

pollar.getWallet()

The signed-in user's Stellar wallet as a WalletInfo, or null when there is no session or the user has no Stellar wallet (an app with on-demand wallet creation, or a user who signed in with a Solana wallet).

const wallet = pollar.getWallet();
console.log(wallet?.address, wallet?.custody);

pollar.getWallets()

Every wallet the user holds, one per chain, each with its chain. [] when there is no session or no wallet.


pollar.hasWallet()

Whether the signed-in user has a wallet on any chain.

if (!pollar.hasWallet()) {
  // offer to create it, or hide wallet features
}

pollar.createWallet()

Creates the signed-in user's wallet, for apps whose wallet creation is On demand. The wallet is created on every chain the app serves and funded per the app's funding mode. Updates the session and notifies onAuthStateChange and onWalletStateChange subscribers. Idempotent: a user who already has a wallet gets it back.

const wallet = await pollar.createWallet();
console.log(wallet.address);

Throws a PollarApiError:

codeWhen
SDK_WALLET_PROVISIONING_DISABLEDThe app's wallet creation is Never
SDK_WALLET_PROVISIONING_UNSUPPORTEDThe user signed in with their own wallet or a passkey

isWalletRequired(errorOrOutcome)

True when a returned outcome or thrown error is SDK_WALLET_REQUIRED: the user has no wallet yet. Exported from @pollar/core with WALLET_REQUIRED_CODE.

import { isWalletRequired } from '@pollar/core';

const signed = await pollar.signTx(unsignedXdr);
if (isWalletRequired(signed)) {
  await pollar.createWallet();
}

Network

pollar.getNetwork()

Returns the currently active Stellar network.

const network = pollar.getNetwork(); // 'testnet' | 'mainnet'

pollar.setNetwork(network)

Switches the active Stellar network.

pollar.setNetwork('mainnet');

pollar.onNetworkStateChange(callback)

Subscribes to network state changes. Returns an unsubscribe function.

const unsubscribe = pollar.onNetworkStateChange((state) => {
  if (state.step === 'connected') {
    console.log('Network:', state.network);
  }
});

Transactions

Pollar handles transaction building and signing through a state machine. Use onTransactionStateChange to observe progress in your UI.

pollar.buildTx(operation, params, options?)

Builds an unsigned Stellar transaction on the server. Transitions TransactionState through building → built (or error).

await pollar.buildTx('payment', {
  destination: 'GXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX',
  amount: '10.00',
  asset: { type: 'credit_alphanum4', code: 'USDC', issuer: 'GABC...' },
});
ParameterTypeDescription
operationstringStellar operation type (e.g. payment).
paramsobjectOperation-specific parameters.
optionsobjectOptional build-time overrides.

pollar.signAndSubmitTx(unsignedXdr)

Signs and submits a previously built transaction. For custodial wallets (social/email login), signing is performed server-side. For external wallets (Freighter/Albedo), signing is performed client-side and submitted directly to Horizon.

Must be called when TransactionState.step === 'built'.

const state = pollar.getTransactionState();

if (state?.step === 'built') {
  await pollar.signAndSubmitTx(state.buildData.unsignedXdr);
}

pollar.signAuthEntry(entryXdr, { validUntilLedger })

Signs a single Soroban SorobanAuthorizationEntry — the user's authorization on its own, without a transaction envelope. Use it when your own contract is the transaction source (it sponsors the gas and submits), and all it needs from the user is consent to the invocation.

For external wallets the adapter signs the entry directly. For custodial wallets Pollar signs server-side, and only if every contract and function in the entry's invocation tree is allowlisted for your app under Wallets → Auth Policy. That allowlist is what keeps the custodial signer from being usable as a signing oracle, so an unconfigured app signs nothing. Passkey smart accounts (C-address sessions) are not supported by this method in the current build: they sign auth entries through their passkey ceremony, which this call does not run, so it resolves to { status: 'error' } rather than signing with the wrong key.

validUntilLedger is the absolute ledger the signature expires at — compute it from the network's latest ledger. Your app's validity window caps how far ahead it may be (120 ledgers by default, 300 at most).

const result = await pollar.signAuthEntry(entryXdr, { validUntilLedger: latestLedger + 100 });

if (result.status === 'signed') {
  await myBackend.settle(result.signedAuthEntry);
} else {
  console.error(result.details); // e.g. SOROBAN_AUTH_FUNCTION_NOT_ALLOWED
}

Resolves to { status: 'signed'; signedAuthEntry: string } or { status: 'error'; details?: string } — like the other transaction methods, it does not throw on a denial. The denial codes are listed under Error Codes.


pollar.getTransactionState()

Returns the current transaction state synchronously, or null if no transaction is in progress.

const state = pollar.getTransactionState();

pollar.onTransactionStateChange(callback)

Subscribes to transaction state changes. Returns an unsubscribe function.

const unsubscribe = pollar.onTransactionStateChange((state) => {
  if (state.step === 'success') {
    console.log('Transaction hash:', state.hash);
  }
});

TransactionState steps:

StepDescription
idleNo transaction in progress.
buildingBuilding the transaction on the server.
builtTransaction built. buildData.unsignedXdr is available.
signingSigning the built transaction.
signedSigned. signedXdr is available.
submittingSubmitting the signed transaction.
signing-submittingCustodial atomic sign+submit (server swallows the boundary).
building-signing-submittingCustodial atomic build+sign+submit (runTx / buildAndSignAndSubmitTx).
awaiting_cosignA co-signed wallet: the request (request: CosignRequest) waits for the device's vote. Under confirmation: 'auto' the SDK settles it and moves on; under 'prompt' or cosignManual your app does.
submittedAccepted by the network; awaiting ledger confirmation. hash is set.
successTransaction confirmed. hash is available.
errorTransaction failed. Carries phase, and optionally code / message / details.

Wallet Balance

pollar.refreshBalance()

Fetches the current balances for the authenticated wallet and drives the wallet-balance state machine (takes no arguments).

await pollar.refreshBalance();

pollar.getWalletBalance(publicKey, network?)

Fetches balances for an arbitrary public key without touching the balance state machine. Returns the balance content directly.

const { balances } = await pollar.getWalletBalance('GXXX...');

pollar.getWalletBalanceState()

Returns the current wallet balance state synchronously.

const state = pollar.getWalletBalanceState();

if (state.step === 'loaded') {
  console.log(state.data.balances);
}

pollar.onWalletBalanceStateChange(callback)

Subscribes to wallet balance state changes. Returns an unsubscribe function.

const unsubscribe = pollar.onWalletBalanceStateChange((state) => {
  if (state.step === 'loaded') {
    console.log(state.data.balances);
  }
});

Transaction History

pollar.fetchTxHistory(params?)

Fetches paginated transaction history for the authenticated user, across every chain the app enables unless you filter by chain.

await pollar.fetchTxHistory({
  limit: 20,
  offset: 0,
  chain: 'SOLANA',
});
OptionTypeDefaultDescription
limitnumber—Number of records to return.
offsetnumber0Offset for pagination (history uses offset-based paging).
chain'STELLAR' | 'POLYGON' | 'SOLANA'—Only this chain's records. Omit for all chains.

Only transactions submitted through Pollar appear here. A record reads PENDING immediately after build and updates to SUCCESS or FAILED once submitted. Each record exposes id, hash, chain, network, status, operation, summary, details, fee ({ amount, unit }: stroops on Stellar, lamports on Solana, wei on Polygon), resultCode, and createdAt.


pollar.getTxHistoryState()

Returns the current transaction history state synchronously.

const state = pollar.getTxHistoryState();

if (state.step === 'loaded') {
  console.log(state.data.records);
}

pollar.onTxHistoryStateChange(callback)

Subscribes to transaction history state changes. Returns an unsubscribe function.

const unsubscribe = pollar.onTxHistoryStateChange((state) => {
  if (state.step === 'loaded') {
    console.log(state.data.records);
  }
});

KYC

Pollar provides a KYC (Know Your Customer) flow that integrates with third-party identity verification providers. Every method takes optional corridorId / cardProviderId arguments: with one of them, the read or the session is scoped to that ramp route's or card provider's steps instead of the app's own.

pollar.getKycProviders(country, corridorId?, cardProviderId?)

Returns the KYC providers available for the given country code. With corridorId, only the one option the route asks for (or none).

const { providers } = await pollar.getKycProviders('MX');
// providers: { id, name, flow: 'iframe' | 'form' | 'redirect', levels: KycLevel[] }[]

pollar.getKycStatus(providerId?, corridorId?, cardProviderId?)

The current KYC status for the authenticated user. status is what gates the user; decisionStatus and reviewReason say why a pending is pending; pendingStep names the requirement step still open.

const { status, decisionStatus, reviewReason, level, providerId, expiresAt, pendingStep } =
  await pollar.getKycStatus();
// status: 'none' | 'pending' | 'approved' | 'rejected' | 'expired'
// decisionStatus: 'pending' | 'manual_review' | 'approved' | 'rejected' | 'expired'

pollar.startKyc(body)

Starts a KYC session with a provider. An iframe / redirect provider answers kycUrl; a form provider answers the fields to render.

const session = await pollar.startKyc({
  providerId: 'provider_id',
  level: 'basic',
  country: 'MX',
  corridorId,       // optional: the ramp route this KYC is for
  idempotencyKey,   // optional: the same key on a retry reuses the session
});
// session: { sessionId, kycUrl?, fields? }

pollar.resolveKyc(providerId, level?, country?, corridorId?, idempotencyKey?, cardProviderId?)

Checks the status and returns early when already approved; otherwise starts a session. Resolves to { alreadyApproved: boolean } plus the startKyc response when a session was opened. SDK_KYC_ALREADY_APPROVED from the server is mapped to { alreadyApproved: true }.

const result = await pollar.resolveKyc('provider_id', 'basic', 'MX');
if (!result.alreadyApproved && result.kycUrl) window.open(result.kycUrl);

pollar.pollKycDecision(providerId, opts?) / pollar.pollKycStatus(providerId, opts?)

Polls until the decision settles: approved, rejected, expired, or pending held for manual review. pollKycDecision resolves with the full status object; pollKycStatus reduces it to the KycStatus value. Both throw 'KYC polling timed out' past timeoutMs.

const status = await pollar.pollKycStatus('provider_id', { intervalMs: 3000, timeoutMs: 300_000 });
OptionTypeDefaultDescription
intervalMsnumber3000Polling interval in milliseconds.
timeoutMsnumber300000Maximum wait time before throwing.
corridorIdstring—Scope to a ramp route's steps.
cardProviderIdstring—Scope to a card provider's steps.

KycStatus values: 'none' · 'pending' · 'approved' · 'rejected' · 'expired'

KycLevel values: 'basic' · 'intermediate' · 'enhanced'


Requirement steps

An app, a ramp route or a card provider can require an ordered list of steps before the user proceeds. Steps are all required, in order (AND); the optionIds inside a step are alternatives (OR): the step is satisfied when any accepted option is. Step types: KYC, FORM, REGISTRY_CHECK (an identity registry such as SEGIP), PROVIDER_REGISTRATION (sign the user up with the ramp or card provider from the verified identity and form answers). @pollar/react walks them from <KycModal>, <RampWidget> and <CardModal>; the headless surface:

MethodDescription
getAppRequirements() → { steps, next, completed, total }The app's own steps and the user's progress. next is the open step (type, optionId, status, reviewReason?) or null
getRequirementForm(formId) → RequirementFormA form asked by a FORM step: fields (text, textarea, number, date, select, multiselect, checkbox, email, phone, with label.en / label.es, required, options, validation), the user's previous answers, and the missing keys
submitRequirementForm(formId, answers) → { formId, version, missing }Stores the answers encrypted. Invalid ones fail with KYC_FORM_INVALID_ANSWERS and body.errors: { key, code }[]
getRegistryCheck(optionId) / submitRegistryCheck(optionId, { surname1, surname2?, complementNumber? })A REGISTRY_CHECK step: the prefilled identity (only the surname split and the document complement are editable) and its status / rejectedFields
getProviderRegistration(corridorId) / submitProviderRegistration(corridorId)Whether the user is registered with the route's ramp provider, whether they can be now, what is shared, and the user's consent to register

A ramp quote reports the first open step of each route in requirementsRequired (see getRampsQuote); complete it and quote again.


Ramps

Pollar supports on-ramp (fiat → crypto) and off-ramp (crypto → fiat) flows through integrated third-party providers. A ramp settles on the chain its route names (chain on the responses): Stellar, Solana or Polygon.

pollar.getRampsQuote(query)

Returns the quotes for a ramp, sorted by recommendation: the first item is the best option.

const { quotes, requirementsRequired, unavailable } = await pollar.getRampsQuote({
  direction: 'onramp',
  country: 'BR',
  currency: 'BRL',
  amount: 100,
});
Query fieldTypeDescription
direction'onramp' | 'offramp'Required.
countrystringRequired. ISO 3166-1 alpha-2.
currencystringRequired. The fiat currency.
amountnumberRequired. In amountDenomination.
amountDenomination'fiat' | 'crypto'What amount is in. Default fiat.
amountExactstringThe exact decimal string when amount would lose precision.
chain'STELLAR' | 'POLYGON' | 'SOLANA'Only routes that settle on this chain.
routeIdstringRe-quote one route.

The response:

FieldDescription
quotesRampQuote[]: quoteId, provider, rail (SPEI, PIX, PSE, ACH, BREB, QR), protocol (SEP-24 / REST), fee, rate, estimatedTime, recommended, requiredFields (the contact / bank fields to collect), and the amounts below
requirementsRequiredRoutes not quoted because a requirement step is still open: { corridorId, type, optionId, status, position, completed, total }. Complete the step (see Requirement steps) and quote again
unavailableProviders that could not quote, with a code

Each quote carries the bounds of the route and, separately, what applies to this user:

FieldMeaning
minAmount / maxAmountWhat the route will serve. Same for every user.
fiatAmountThe fiat this quote actually settles — not always what you asked for. Display this one.
cryptoAmountThe crypto the wallet will be debited on an off-ramp. null on an on-ramp. Fund the wallet with at least this — see below.
availableAmountThe fiat this user's wallet balance covers on an off-ramp. null when there is no answer to give: an on-ramp, a provider without its own FX rate, or a balance Pollar cannot read. null never means zero — your app may hold the balance elsewhere and fund the wallet before the user signs.
expiresAtWhen the quote stops being accepted. This is the deadline to count down.
providerExpiresAtWhen the underlying provider's own quote dies, or null. Informational — see below.

Quote expiry: count down expiresAt, not providerExpiresAt

A Pollar quote is accepted for 15 minutes. Past expiresAt, starting a ramp with that quoteId fails with SDK_RAMPS_QUOTE_EXPIRED and you request a new one.

Providers run on much shorter clocks — Stereum's own quote lasts about a minute, Etherfuse's about two — and providerExpiresAt reports that when the provider publishes it. You do not have to beat it. When you start the ramp, Pollar re-quotes the provider under the same parameters as the quote you were shown, and confirms the order against that fresh quote. A provider quote going stale while your user fills in a bank form is absorbed server-side and never reaches you.

That matters most on off-ramps, where the form asks for an account number, a bank, a holder name and a document: nobody completes it inside a provider's one-minute window, and they do not have to.

providerExpiresAt is there for transparency — showing which provider clock is running, or logging it — not as something to enforce.

The amount you asked for is not always the amount quoted

Providers that price by the crypto side land near your figure rather than on it. Ask to receive 12 BOB from Stereum and the quote settles 12.13. That is the number it will really pay, and it is what fiatAmount reports — show it, because the user will see 12.13 arrive in their bank.

It also matters for arithmetic: rate is published against fiatAmount, so dividing your requested figure by it gives a different answer.

// 12 / 10.734513274336285  ->  1.1178…  ->  1.12   ✗ a cent short
// 12.13 / 10.734513274336285  ->  1.13          ✓ what will be charged

Which is why you should not divide at all — read cryptoAmount.

Funding an off-ramp: use cryptoAmount

An off-ramp is paid from the wallet, so the crypto has to be there before you start it. cryptoAmount is that figure, and it is fixed at quote time: the order charges exactly it, so moving precisely this much into the wallet is always enough. If your app holds the balance elsewhere — a lending position, a vault, a savings product — this is the number to withdraw.

Do not derive it by dividing the fiat amount by rate. rate is published against an amount already rounded to the cent, so the division cannot recover the charge and can land you a cent short; the ramp then fails with SDK_RAMPS_INSUFFICIENT_BALANCE.

The trade-off that buys you a fixed charge: the payout absorbs rate movement instead. Between the quote and the order, Pollar re-quotes the provider for the same crypto amount, so the fiat that arrives can differ slightly from the figure you displayed. Read the settled amounts back from the ramp transaction rather than assuming the quote's.


pollar.createOnRamp(body)

Creates an on-ramp transaction (fiat → crypto).

const onramp = await pollar.createOnRamp({ ... });
console.log(onramp.depositInstructions);
// { txId, provider, status, kycUrl?, pendingSignature?, depositInstructions }

pollar.createOffRamp(body)

Creates an off-ramp transaction (crypto → fiat).

const offramp = await pollar.createOffRamp({ ... });

Retrying a start that timed out

createOnRamp / createOffRamp are safe to retry with the same quoteId. A quote is consumed once, so a repeat does not open a second order or charge twice: it answers with the transaction the first call already produced, carrying its current status, chain and txHash (stellarTxHash on a Stellar ramp).

That matters because a timeout is not a failure. The SDK abandons a request after 10 seconds by default, and a dropped connection can cut the answer after the server has committed — on an off-ramp, after the crypto has left the wallet. Treating that as a failed withdrawal is wrong, and there is no other way to find the transaction, because its id came back in the answer you never received.

// On a network error, ask again with the same quoteId rather than giving up.
try {
  return await pollar.createOffRamp(body);
} catch (e) {
  if (isNetworkError(e)) return await pollar.createOffRamp(body); // replays, never duplicates
  throw e;
}

A genuine first failure still fails: nothing was created, so the retry runs the start for real.


pollar.getRampTransaction(txId)

Returns the current state of a ramp transaction by ID.

const tx = await pollar.getRampTransaction('tx_id');
console.log(tx.status);

pollar.pollRampTransaction(txId, opts?)

Polls a ramp transaction until it reaches a terminal status.

const finalStatus = await pollar.pollRampTransaction('tx_id', {
  intervalMs: 3000,
  timeoutMs: 120000,
});
OptionTypeDefaultDescription
intervalMsnumber5000Polling interval in milliseconds.
timeoutMsnumber600000Maximum wait time before throwing.

More ramp methods

MethodDescription
getRampCountries() → { countries: { code, currency }[] }The countries (and fiat currency) the app's enabled ramp providers serve on its network. Drive the country picker from this
getRampTransaction(txId)One ramp: status, direction, amount, currency, chain, txHash, depositInstructions, pendingSignature, fundsInTransit, updatedAt
retryRampTransaction(txId)Run the pending step of a ramp whose funds are in transit now, instead of at the next pass
completeWithdraw(txId)Complete an off-ramp once the anchor's KYC is done: builds, signs and submits the withdraw payment
submitRampSignature(txId, { signedXdr, action })Resume a ramp from an external wallet after the client signed the pendingSignature XDR (action: 'sep10' or 'withdraw_payment')
getRampLiquidity(rail) → { rail, liquidity, available, message? }Live liquidity on a payout rail ('PIX', 'BREB'). available: false means the rail cannot be served right now
getRampKycStatus() → { provider, hasApproved, status }Poll after an off-ramp answered kycRequired: true; once hasApproved, request a fresh quote
decodePixQr(qrCode) → { decoded }Decode a Pix "copia e cola" payload to show the payee before an off-ramp. decoded: null is a stale code. Pass the original payload as bankDetails.qrCode on createOffRamp

The on/off-ramp responses also carry onboardingStatus ('kyc' / 'endorsement' / 'awaiting_provider') while the provider is still onboarding the user, kycUrl / tosUrl to send them to, and depositInstructions (a scannable Pix / Stellar / URL payload plus copyable fields) on an on-ramp.


App Config

pollar.getAppConfig()

Returns the application configuration associated with your API key, as configured in the Pollar Dashboard.

const config = await pollar.getAppConfig();

One-shot transactions

For build → sign → submit in a single call, use runTx (an alias of buildAndSignAndSubmitTx). Both drive the same TransactionState machine as the split calls and resolve to a SubmitOutcome ({ status: 'success' | 'pending' | 'error', … }).

const outcome = await pollar.runTx('payment', {
  destination: 'GXXX...',
  amount: '10.00',
  asset: { type: 'credit_alphanum4', code: 'USDC', issuer: 'GABC...' },
});
if (outcome.status === 'error') console.error(outcome.details, outcome.resultCode);

Lower-level building blocks are also available: signTx(unsignedXdr, { skipSponsorship? }) (a managed wallet signs server-side, an external wallet in its adapter; only passkey smart wallets cannot use it), submitTx(signedXdr), getTxStatus(hash), createAccount(), and resetTransactionState().

pollar.sendPayment(params)

One entry point for a payment on any chain. SendPaymentParams is a per-chain union; the Stellar member routes through buildAndSignAndSubmitTx (so external adapters and passkey wallets keep the split flow), the Solana and Polygon members are a single server-side call for a managed wallet.

// Stellar: decimal amount and an asset
await pollar.sendPayment({ destination: 'G...', amount: '1.5', asset: { type: 'native' } });

// Solana: integer base units. Omit `mint` for native SOL (lamports)...
await pollar.sendPayment({ chain: 'SOLANA', destination: '7xKX...', amount: '1500000000' });

// ...or pass the SPL mint and its smallest unit (USDC has 6 decimals)
await pollar.sendPayment({
  chain: 'SOLANA',
  destination: '7xKX...',
  amount: '2500000',
  mint: 'EPjFWdd5AufqSSqeM3qQw8xJXpY4zFrPyLKS3jcKBVMy',

'SOLANA'Integer base units (lamports, or the mint's smallest unit)mint? (omit for SOL)Managed and co-signed: one call to /tx/build-sign-submit. External (SIWS): Pollar builds, the wallet signs via signSolanaTransaction, Pollar submits

On Solana, when the token is marked sponsor transfers in the dashboard, the app's GAS wallet is the fee payer and the recipient's associated token account is created in the same transaction. Sending an SPL token the sender does not hold yet fails with TX_NO_TRUSTLINE. The result is the same SubmitOutcome as runTx, with the Solana signature in hash.


Enabled assets & trustlines

The app's dashboard-enabled assets paired with the authenticated wallet's on-chain trustline state.

  • pollar.getEnabledAssetsState() — current state snapshot.
  • pollar.refreshAssets() — refresh the enabled-assets state machine.
  • pollar.onEnabledAssetsStateChange(cb) — subscribe; returns an unsubscribe fn.
  • pollar.setTrustline(asset, opts?) — establish (omit limit) or remove (limit: '0') a trustline. The app covers the reserve and the fee whenever the dashboard sponsors trustlines; pass { skipSponsorship: true } to make the user's wallet pay instead. Returns a TrustlineOutcome.
await pollar.setTrustline({ code: 'USDC', issuer: 'GABC...' });

Swap

Multi-venue asset swaps (SDEX / AMM). Empty getSwapConfig() means swap is disabled for the app — hide the UI.

  • pollar.getSwapConfig() → Promise<SwapVenue[]> — venues this app exposes.
  • pollar.getSwapTokens() → Promise<SwapToken[]> — curated "buy" token catalog.
  • pollar.getSwapQuote(params) → Promise<SwapQuote[]> — quotes ranked best-first.
  • pollar.swap(quote, opts?) → Promise<SubmitOutcome> — execute a quote (establishes the buy-asset trustline first when needed). Drives TransactionState.

Earn

Yield vaults (DeFindex) and lending pools (Blend). Empty getEarnProviders() means Earn is disabled — hide the UI.

  • pollar.getEarnProviders() → Promise<EarnProviderId[]>.
  • pollar.getEarnOpportunities(provider) → Promise<EarnOpportunity[]> — vaults/pools with live APY.
  • pollar.getEarnPosition(params) → Promise<EarnPosition> — the wallet's position.
  • pollar.earnDeposit(params) → Promise<SubmitOutcome>.
  • pollar.earnWithdraw(params) → Promise<SubmitOutcome>.

Token distribution

  • pollar.listDistributionRules() → Promise<DistributionRule[]> — claimable rules for the app.
  • pollar.claimDistributionRule(body) → claims a rule for the authenticated user.

Sessions

Manage the authenticated user's active sessions (devices).

  • pollar.listSessions() → Promise<SessionInfo[]>.
  • pollar.getSessionsState() / pollar.fetchSessions() / pollar.onSessionsStateChange(cb) — the sessions state machine.
  • pollar.revokeSession(familyId) — revoke one session.
  • pollar.logout({ everywhere: true }) or pollar.logoutEverywhere() — sign out everywhere.

Smart Wallets (passkey)

Passkey-backed Soroban C-address login. Requires a passkey ceremony in PollarClientConfig (@pollar/react supplies one via @simplewebauthn/browser; browser-only for now).

  • pollar.loginSmartWallet() — log in with an existing passkey wallet.
  • pollar.createSmartWallet() — create + deploy a new passkey C-address.

See Smart Wallets for the full flow.


Stellar SEP proofs

Ownership proofs signed by the user's Stellar wallet, custodial or external:

  • pollar.stellar.sep53.signMessage(message) → { status: 'signed', signature, signerAddress, scheme: 'sep53' } or { status: 'error', code?, details? }. SEP-53 message signing.
  • pollar.stellar.sep10.sign({ challengeXdr, homeDomains?, webAuthDomain? }) → { status: 'signed', signedXdr, signerAddress } or an error. Signs a SEP-10 web-auth challenge from your own anchor.

Lifecycle and wallet readiness

MethodDescription
pollar.ready() → Promise<void>Resolves once the keypair and the stored session are restored. Await it before reading getAuthState() on a cold start
pollar.destroy()Detaches the cross-tab storage listener and aborts any in-flight login
pollar.refresh()Refreshes the access token; concurrent calls are coalesced
pollar.refreshWalletState() → Promise<WalletProvisioning | null>Asks the server where the Stellar account stands: 'READY', 'CREATING', 'FAILED' or 'NONE'. Never throws
pollar.onWalletStateChange(cb)Subscribe to that readiness; replays the current value, then emits on change
isWalletNotReady(errorOrOutcome) / WALLET_NOT_READY_CODEtrue when a failure is "the wallet is still being prepared" (SDK_WALLET_NOT_READY), whether thrown or returned as an outcome. Retry once the state is READY
pollar.getUserProfile() → PollarUserProfile | nullEmail, names, avatar and linked providers. Held in memory only, never persisted
pollar.providerAction(provider, action, payload?)A named secondary step on a registered auth provider (the email provider's sendCode / verifyCode)
pollar.setPasskeyDefaults({ passkey?, passkeySign? })Fill in the passkey ceremony and signer when they were not configured at construction (@pollar/react does this)
pollar.getNetworkState(){ step: 'idle' } or { step: 'connected', network }
pollar.getWalletType() → WalletId | nullThe provider the session was opened with
pollar.listWalletAdapters() → { id, meta, chain }[]The registered adapters, Freighter and Albedo first, each with its chain
pollar.getWalletAdapter(id)One registered adapter instance
pollar.getLogger()The client's level-gated logger

Co-signed wallets

A mainnet app whose dashboard sets wallet custody to Co-signed with Turnkey gives each user a 2-of-2 quorum: this device's key plus Pollar's approver key. Every signature needs both votes, on Stellar, Solana and Polygon. The concepts are in Co-signed Wallets; this section is the client surface.

The device key is a second P-256 key kept under the cosign namespace of the client's storage (cosignKeyManager to hold it elsewhere, for example hardware-backed). Logout does not reset it, so the user's vote survives signing out. login() and createWallet() send its public key, which becomes the user's half of the quorum: a user on an SDK older than 0.11.5 cannot create a co-signed wallet.

Confirmation policy

confirmation in PollarClientConfig decides how much the user sees, whatever the custody:

PolicyCustodial walletCo-signed walletExternal wallet
'auto' (default)Signs on the server, no promptThe device verifies the request against Turnkey and votes on its own; signTx returns signed, runTx returns success, exactly as for a custodial walletOnly the wallet's own popup
'prompt'Shows the transaction first, then signsShows it first, then verifies and votesShows it first, then the wallet's popup

Under 'prompt', @pollar/react renders the prompt (<ConfirmModal>); a headless app subscribes with onConfirmationRequest and answers each PendingConfirmation with confirm() or reject(). While nothing is subscribed, a signing call fails with SDK_CONFIRMATION_UNAVAILABLE rather than signing unasked.

pollar.onConfirmationRequest((pending) => {
  for (const c of pending) {
    // c.kind: 'sign' | 'sign_and_send' | 'build_sign_submit'; c.network; c.operation; c.details
    showDialog(c).then((ok) => (ok ? c.confirm() : c.reject()));
  }
});
  • pollar.getPendingConfirmations() → PendingConfirmation[].
  • pollar.onConfirmationRequest(cb) — subscribe; replays the current list.

What the device verifies

Before voting, the device asks Pollar to rebuild a refreshable request (a Solana blockhash lasts about a minute, a Stellar sequence a few), then reads Turnkey's copy of the activity with its own key and compares:

ChainCheck
StellarThe transaction hash, recomputed from the unsigned envelope
SolanaA CCTP deposit_for_burn is decoded on the device (amount, signing account, destination domain and recipient, fee and rent payer); anything the reader cannot decode is compared byte for byte
PolygonThe unsigned EIP-1559 transaction is decoded: chain id, and only a POL / ERC-20 transfer, approve, Uniswap V3 exactInputSingle or CCTP V2 depositForBurn with the stated destination, value and calldata
Account derivationWallet id and parameters

A mismatch throws SDK_COSIGN_VERIFICATION_FAILED and nothing is sent. Setup requests Pollar opens on its own (account creation, a trustline, an account on a new chain) are approved without a prompt only when the device decodes them field by field and they name this wallet; anything else lands in the pending list. Requests that belong to an approval group (a ramp's swap and bridge, for example) are shown once with all their steps; after the user approves the first, the device votes the rest on its own, still verifying each.

pollar.cosign

The raw surface, for an app that drives the flow itself (cosignManual: true) or renders its own approval UI:

MethodDescription
pending() → Promise<CosignRequest[]>The requests waiting for this device's vote
get(id, { sync? })One request; sync re-reads the activity from Turnkey first
verify(request) → Promise<CosignVerification>The check above, without voting. { ok: true, localHash, turnkeyPayload } or { ok: false, reason }
approve(request | id, { verify? })Vote yes. Verifies first unless told not to. Resolves with the request after the vote: approved and signed (and submitted, for intents that submit), or still pending
reject(request | id)Vote no. Final
cancel(id)Withdraw Pollar's vote: the activity is rejected in Turnkey. Final
refresh(request | id)Rebuild the request right before the vote; same id, new Turnkey activity
inspectQuorum({ report? }) → Promise<CosignQuorumReport>Reads the sub-organization back and reports whether it is the promised quorum: two root users, threshold 2, this device registered. Run once after the wallet is created, before the first deposit
devices() → Promise<CosignDevicesContent>The user's enrolled devices and the quorum state
revokeDevice(deviceId, { force? })Revoke one of the user's devices. Revoking the key this device signs with locks it out, so it is refused unless force
  • pollar.getCosignState() → { pending: CosignRequest[]; lastResolved?: CosignRequest }.
  • pollar.onCosignStateChange(cb) — subscribe; replays the current value.

With cosignManual: true, a signing call on a co-signed wallet returns { status: 'cosign_pending', request, buildData? } and TransactionState sits on awaiting_cosign until your app approves through pollar.cosign.approve().

Helpers: cosignGroupOf(request) → CosignGroup | null, cosignStepKeyOf(request), stepInGroup(group, stepKey), and transactionErrorMessage(code, details) for user-facing text of a failed transaction or approval.


Cards

An app that enables a card provider in Cards → Providers offers its users a virtual card funded from their wallet. @pollar/react wraps the whole flow in <CardModal>; the methods below are the headless surface. The card number is decrypted on the device, never on a Pollar server.

Every method takes an optional { cardProviderId }, needed only when the app enables more than one provider.

MethodDescription
getCardProviders() → Promise<CardProvider[]>The providers this app enables. An empty array means Cards is off: hide the UI
getCardRequirements(params?) → Promise<CardRequirements>The platform steps the provider needs (KYC, FORM, REGISTRY_CHECK, PROVIDER_REGISTRATION) and where the user stands (next, completed, total)
getCardProviderRegistration(cardProviderId) / submitCardProviderRegistration(cardProviderId)Whether the user is registered with the provider, what is shared, and the user's consent to sign up from the verified identity and form answers
getCardHolder(params?) → Promise<CardHolder | null>The holder, null before createCardHolder
createCardHolder(params?)Creates the holder; firstName, lastName, email default to the session profile
submitCardKyc({ termsAccepted, kyc }) → Promise<CardHolder>The provider's own KYC form (CardKycInput); termsAccepted must be true. The returned holder carries verificationLink while kycStatus is PENDING / NEEDS_ACTION / IN_REVIEW
getCardOccupations(params?)The occupation codes CardKycInput.occupation accepts
getCards(params?) → Promise<CardInfo[]>The user's cards; never includes card numbers
issueCard({ nickname?, limit? }) → Promise<CardInfo>Issue a virtual card. Needs an approved KYC
getCardBalance(params?) → Promise<CardBalance | null>Credit limit, spending power and balance due, read live from the provider
getCardTransactions({ cardId?, limit?, offset? }) → Promise<CardTransactionsPage>Newest first
fundCard({ amount }) → Promise<CardFundingOutcome>Moves USDC from the user's Stellar wallet to the card's collateral. A custodial wallet pays at once; an external wallet is asked to sign, and { status: 'cancelled' } means it declined. The returned CardFunding then advances on its own: CREATED → BURNED → ATTESTED → MINTED → CREDITED, or FAILED with error
getCardFunding(fundingId) / listCardFundings(params?)Follow a funding, or list them newest first
getCardDepositAddresses(params?)One deposit address per network, for funding from another wallet
revealCardSecrets(cardId, params?) → Promise<CardSecrets>PAN and CVC, decrypted on this device with a one-shot key the server never sees. Show them and drop them; never store or log the result
const [provider] = await pollar.getCardProviders();
if (!provider) return; // Cards is off for this app

let holder = await pollar.getCardHolder();
if (!holder) holder = await pollar.createCardHolder();
if (holder.kycStatus === 'NOT_STARTED') {
  holder = await pollar.submitCardKyc({ termsAccepted: true, kyc: form });
  // send the user to holder.verificationLink, poll getCardHolder() until APPROVED
}

const card = (await pollar.getCards())[0] ?? (await pollar.issueCard({ nickname: 'Travel' }));
const funding = await pollar.fundCard({ amount: '25' });
const { pan, cvc } = await pollar.revealCardSecrets(card.id);

Errors are PollarApiErrors: SDK_CARDS_PROVIDER_ERROR (the provider is down), SDK_CARDS_IP_NOT_SUPPORTED, SDK_CARDS_PROVIDER_USER_TAKEN (the email is already registered through another app), and SDK_CARDS_REQUIREMENT_REQUIRED (409: a platform step is still open; the body names requirementType and optionId).

Types: CardProvider, CardHolder, CardKycStatus, CardKycInput, CardInfo, CardStatus, CardBalance, CardTransaction, CardFunding, CardFundingStatus, CardFundingOutcome, CardSecrets, CardRequirements, CardRequirementStep.
