Deposits

The Unified Deposit API simplifies deposits by automatically detecting the optimal authorization method. Use prepareDepositAuthorization() to determine the method, then prepareDepositTxData() or prepareDepositWithPermitTxData() to execute.

DepositAuthMethod

export const DepositAuthMethod = {
  PERMIT: "permit",           // EIP-2612 off-chain signature (gas efficient)
  APPROVAL: "approval",       // Traditional ERC20 approval (two transactions)
  ALREADY_APPROVED: "already_approved", // Existing allowance sufficient
} as const;

export type DepositAuthMethod =
  (typeof DepositAuthMethod)[keyof typeof DepositAuthMethod];

prepareDepositAuthorization()

Determines the optimal authorization method for a deposit operation.

Function Signature

export async function prepareDepositAuthorization(
  params: PrepareDepositAuthorizationParams
): Promise<DepositAuthorizationResult>;

Parameters

export interface PrepareDepositAuthorizationParams {
  /** Yield strategy type (e.g., YieldType.CORE) */
  yieldType: YieldType;

  /** Token contract address to deposit */
  depositToken: Address;

  /** Amount of assets to deposit as decimal string (e.g., "100.25") */
  depositAmount: string;

  /** User's wallet address (permit owner / approval sender) */
  recipientAddress: Address;

  /** Blockchain network ID */
  chainId: ChainId;

  /** Optional deadline for permit signature (defaults to 1 hour from now) */
  deadline?: bigint;

  /** Force specific authorization method (bypasses automatic detection) */
  forceMethod?: "permit" | "approval";
}

Return Type (Discriminated Union)

export type DepositAuthorizationResult =
  | PermitAuthorizationResult
  | ApprovalAuthorizationResult
  | AlreadyApprovedAuthorizationResult;

/** Returned when token supports EIP-2612 permit */
export interface PermitAuthorizationResult {
  method: DepositAuthMethod.PERMIT;
  /** EIP-712 typed data ready for wallet signing */
  permitData: PermitSignatureData;
}

/** Returned when an ERC20 approval transaction is needed */
export interface ApprovalAuthorizationResult {
  method: DepositAuthMethod.APPROVAL;
  /** Transaction data for ERC20 approve() call */
  txData: ApproveDepositTokenTxData;
  /** Current allowance (human-readable) */
  currentAllowance: string;
  /** Current allowance as BigInt string */
  currentAllowanceAsBigInt: string;
}

/** Returned when existing allowance is sufficient */
export interface AlreadyApprovedAuthorizationResult {
  method: DepositAuthMethod.ALREADY_APPROVED;
  /** Current allowance (human-readable) */
  allowance: string;
  /** Current allowance as BigInt string */
  allowanceAsBigInt: string;
}

Decision Logic

The function follows this priority order:

Check forceMethod - If specified, use that method
Check permit support - If token is in permit allowlist, return permit data
Check existing allowance - If sufficient, return ALREADY_APPROVED
Default to approval - Return approval transaction data

prepareDepositTxData()

Prepares transaction data for a standard deposit (after approval).

Function Signature

export async function prepareDepositTxData(
  params: PrepareDepositParams
): Promise<DepositTxData>;

Parameters

export interface PrepareDepositParams {
  /** Yield strategy type (e.g., YieldType.PRIME) */
  yieldType: YieldType;

  /** Token contract address to deposit */
  depositToken: Address;

  /** Amount of assets to deposit as decimal string (e.g., "100.25") */
  depositAmount: string;

  /** Recipient address for vault shares */
  recipientAddress: Address;

  /** Blockchain network ID */
  chainId: ChainId;

  /** Optional slippage in basis points (default: 50 = 0.5%) */
  slippage?: number;

  /** Optional partner code for fee attribution */
  partnerCode?: string;
}

Return Type

export interface DepositTxData {
  abi: Abi;
  address: Address;
  functionName: string;
  args: unknown[];
  chainId: number;
}

prepareDepositWithPermitTxData()

Prepares transaction data for a permit-based deposit (single transaction).

Function Signature

export async function prepareDepositWithPermitTxData(
  params: PrepareDepositWithPermitParams
): Promise<PermitDepositTxData>;

Parameters

export interface PrepareDepositWithPermitParams {
  /** Yield strategy type (e.g., YieldType.PRIME) */
  yieldType: YieldType;

  /** Token contract address to deposit */
  depositToken: Address;

  /** Amount of assets to deposit as decimal string (e.g., "100.25") */
  depositAmount: string;

  /** Recipient address for vault shares */
  recipientAddress: Address;

  /** Blockchain network ID */
  chainId: ChainId;

  /** Permit signature (hex string from wallet signing) */
  signature: Hex;

  /** Permit deadline (must match signature deadline) */
  deadline: bigint;

  /** Optional slippage in basis points (default: 50 = 0.5%) */
  slippage?: number;

  /** Optional partner code for fee attribution */
  partnerCode?: string;
}

Return Type

export interface PermitDepositTxData {
  address: Address;
  chainId: number;
  data: {
    abi: Abi;
    functionName: string;
    args: unknown[];
  };
}

Force Specific Method

Override automatic detection when needed:

// Force permit even if automatic detection would choose approval
const authForcePermit = await prepareDepositAuthorization({
  ...params,
  forceMethod: "permit",
});
// Always returns DepositAuthMethod.PERMIT

// Force approval even for permit-supporting tokens
const authForceApproval = await prepareDepositAuthorization({
  ...params,
  forceMethod: "approval",
});
// Returns APPROVAL or ALREADY_APPROVED

Slippage Configuration

The default slippage is 50 basis points (0.5%). Override when needed:

const depositResult = await prepareDeposit({
  ...params,
  slippage: 100, // 1% slippage
});

Error Handling

Both helpers throw APIError with actionable metadata:

try {
  const auth = await prepareDepositAuthorization(params);
} catch (error) {
  if (error.code === "VAULT_NOT_FOUND") {
    console.error("No vault matches parameters");
  }
  if (error.code === "PERMIT_NOT_SUPPORTED") {
    // Fall back to approval flow
  }
}

Error Code	Description	Resolution
`SDK_NOT_INITIALIZED`	SDK used before init	Call `initAmplifySDK()` first
`VAULT_NOT_FOUND`	No vault matches params	Verify yieldType, token, chainId
`PERMIT_NOT_SUPPORTED`	Token doesn’t support EIP-2612	Use approval flow instead
`INSUFFICIENT_ALLOWANCE`	Approval amount too low	Increase approval or use permit
