# prepareDepositTxData

> Prepare transaction data for a standard deposit after approval

Prepares the transaction data for executing a deposit after the user has approved token spending. Use this for the approval flow or when allowance is already sufficient.

<Info>
  For most use cases, use the [unified deposit
  workflow](/v0.4.2/intro/products/earn/developers/api/deposit-workflow) which
  handles authorization automatically.

## Import

```ts theme={null}
import { prepareDepositTxData } from '@paxoslabs/amplify-sdk'
```

## Usage

```ts theme={null}
const txData = await prepareDepositTxData({
  yieldType: YieldType.CORE,
  depositAsset: '0xA0b86991c6218b36c1d19D4a2e9Eb0cE3606eB48',
  depositAmount: '1000',
  to: '0x...',
  chainId: 1,
})
```

## Slippage Configuration

The default slippage is 50 basis points (0.5%). Adjust for volatile conditions:

```ts theme={null}
// 1% slippage for higher tolerance
const txData = await prepareDepositTxData({
  ...params,
  slippage: 100,
})

// 0.1% slippage for tighter tolerance
const txData = await prepareDepositTxData({
  ...params,
  slippage: 10,
})
```
