Swap Links
Swap Links are personalized URLs that directly connect users to a Minmo Agent’s Bitcoin exchange service. It’s like a mobile Bitcoin counter, easily shareable via WhatsApp, embedded in websites, or posted on social media. Users click, swap, and the agent facilitates the transaction.
How Do Swap Links Work?
For Agents:
- Get Your Link: When you create your Minmo agent account, a personalized swap link, such as swap.minmo.to/your-username, is automatically generated.
- Customize Your Profile: Set your supported currencies (KES, UGX, USDT, BTC), add payment methods (M-Pesa, bank transfers, etc.), configure your margins (how much you earn per swap), and set transaction limits.
- Share Your Link: Post it in WhatsApp groups, add it to your X bio, share it in Telegram communities, send it via SMS, print it on business cards, or embed it in your website.
- Receive & Fulfill Requests: Get notified when someone uses your link, view swap details in your Minmo app, facilitate the payment, and earn your margin.
For Users:
- Click Agent's Link: An agent shares their Minmo swap link with you.
- Enter Swap Details: Enter the amount you want to swap for bitcoin or fiat, and select a payment method.
- Complete Payment: Follow payment instructions (M-Pesa number, bank details, etc.), send payment via your chosen method, and upload payment confirmation.
- Receive Bitcoin: The agent confirms payment, and Bitcoin is released to your wallet, completing the transaction.
Features
- Agent Branding: Your link, your identity. Customize your username (e.g., swap.minmo.to/bitcoin-kimani), add a profile photo and description, set custom margin settings, and include business information.
- Multi-Currency Support: Serve diverse needs with support for Bitcoin (BTC), USDT Stablecoin, and any other local currency you support.
- Flexible Payment Methods: Meet users where they are with options like M-Pesa (Paybill, Till, Send Money), bank transfers, Airtel Money, MTN Mobile Money, and cash (in-person).
- Smart Limits & Margins: Control your operations by setting minimum/maximum swap amounts, daily volume limits, custom margins per currency, and dynamic rate updates.
- Real-Time Notifications: Never miss a swap with push notifications to the Minmo app or email notifications.
- Built-In Escrow: Ensure safety for everyone with automatic fund locking during swaps
- Self-Custodial Liquidity: Agents maintain greater control over their funds as Minmo only holds funds in escrow during active swaps, enhancing trust and security.
- Open-Source Collaboration: Minmo leverages collaborations with the Fedimint Web SDK to accelerate the development of a secure and production-grade eCash mobile wallet experience, further enhancing the functionality and reliability of agents managing their Swap Links.
