2 credits per API call
Transfer (send) multiple assets from a gas pump address to one or more addresses.
This operation is usually performed by users in your custodial application: a user who has a gas pump address assigned wants to transfer multiple assets to one or more addresses on the blockchain.
The gas fee for sending the assets will be covered by crypto funds on the master address. Make sure that the master address always has enough funds to cover gas fees.
To be able to send the assets:
- The gas pump address must be activated.
To check whether the gas pump address is activated, use this API. - The gas pump address must be the owner of the assets.
If you want to send only one asset, you can also use the API for transferring an asset from a gas pump account.
This API is supported for the following blockchains:
- BNB Smart Chain
- Celo
- Ethereum
- Harmony
- Klaytn
- Polygon
- TRON
- XinFin
Signing a transaction
When transferring assets, you are charged a fee for the transaction, and you must sign the transaction with the private key of the blockchain address from which the fee will be deducted.
Providing the private key in the API is not a secure way of signing transactions, because the private key can be stolen or exposed. Your private keys should never leave your security perimeter. You should use the private keys only for testing a solution you are building on the testnet of a blockchain.
For signing transactions on the mainnet, we strongly recommend that you use the Tatum Key Management System (KMS) and provide the signature ID instead of the private key in the API. Alternatively, you can use the Tatum JavaScript client.
