Create a crypto deposit address you can share with clients. Optionally, you can automatically convert all deposits you receive to a currency of your choice. If you are receiving or converting to XRP, you will get a tag in the response that you must display to the customer alongside their address. Any XRP deposits sent without a tag may be lost. For more details, see What is a destination tag?. If you want to automatically convert all deposits to a currency of your (or your customer’s) choice, specify its ISO code in the convert_to parameter. The end_user_reference parameter is used to group, track and analyse transactions made by a specific customer. To prevent transactions from getting delayed or cancelled, always make sure to include the correct ID. The ID must not contain any personal or identifying customer data.
