SODAX API key
A SODAX API key is the credential an app uses to call the SODAX API. Builders start with a free API key, self-serve and live today, and a pro key is coming.
What it is
A SODAX API key is the credential a builder's app uses when it calls the SODAX API. Builders get a free API key at portal.sodax.com, which is self-serve and live today.
What it does inside SODAX
The key identifies the app making each call to the SODAX API. With it, an app can offer the capabilities the SODAX API covers inside its own product: trading, lending and borrowing with cross-network collateral, cross-network transfers and yield, across 20+ networks, alone or combined.
Builders use only the capabilities they need. Each newly whitelisted asset becomes available to every app that calls the SODAX API.
Why it exists
The SODAX API is the way in to the SODAX system: one API, starting with a free key. A self-serve key lets a builder start on their own, make a first call and move to a working feature at their own pace, without becoming a cross-network infrastructure company first.
What this means for partners
Calling the SODAX API costs nothing, and the partner sets its own fee on top of every trade and keeps it. The Partner Dashboard is where a builder connects the wallet that receives that fee.
While they build, the SODAX MCP can give the builder's AI agent SODAX stats and docs.
