Introduction

Welcome to the MintMove API documentation

What is MintMove API?

MintMove API is a RESTful web service that provides programmatic access to cryptocurrency exchange functionality. It enables developers to integrate cryptocurrency exchange capabilities into their applications, automate trading workflows, and build custom exchange interfaces.

The API allows you to retrieve real-time exchange rates, create and manage exchange orders, track order status, handle emergency situations, and generate payment QR codes—all through simple HTTP requests.

Technology Stack

  • REST API - Standard HTTP methods (GET, POST) following RESTful principles
