This guide walks you through a complete token swap on HyperEVM (chain ID 999) — from checking allowance to executing the swap.

​
Prerequisites

  • An API key (get one on Telegram)
  • A wallet with tokens on HyperEVM
  • Tokens to swap (this example swaps HYPE for UBTC)
1

Check allowance

Before swapping an ERC-20 token, check if the AKKA Router is allowed to spend it. For native token swaps (HYPE), skip to step 3.
curl -H "apikey: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  "https://api.akka.finance/swap/v1/999/approve/allowance?tokenAddress=0xB8CE59FC3717ada4C02eaDF9682A9e934F625ebb&walletAddress=YOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS"
Response:
{ "allowance": "0" }
If allowance is 0 or less than your swap amount, proceed to step 2. Otherwise, skip to step 3.
2

Approve token spending

Generate and submit an approval transaction so the AKKA Router can spend your tokens.
curl -H "apikey: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  "https://api.akka.finance/swap/v1/999/approve/transaction?tokenAddress=0xB8CE59FC3717ada4C02eaDF9682A9e934F625ebb"
Response:
{
  "data": "0x095ea7b3...",
  "gasPrice": "100000000",
  "to": "0xB8CE59FC3717ada4C02eaDF9682A9e934F625ebb",
  "value": "0"
}
Submit this transaction to the blockchain and wait for it to be confirmed before proceeding.
3

Get a quote

Check the expected output amount before executing the swap.
curl -H "apikey: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  "https://api.akka.finance/swap/v1/999/quote?src=0xeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee&dst=0xB8CE59FC3717ada4C02eaDF9682A9e934F625ebb&amount=1000000000000000000&includeTokensInfo=true"
Response:
{
  "dstAmount": "205340622987446484992",
  "srcToken": {
    "address": "0x5555555555555555555555555555555555555555",
    "symbol": "WHYPE",
    "name": "Wrapped HYPE",
    "decimals": 18,
    "logoUri": null
  },
  "dstToken": {
    "address": "0xB8CE59FC3717ada4C02eaDF9682A9e934F625ebb",
    "symbol": "UBTC",
    "name": "Universal BTC",
    "decimals": 18,
    "logoUri": null
  }
}

Execute the swap

Generate the swap transaction data and submit it to the blockchain.
curl -H "apikey: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  "https://api.akka.finance/swap/v1/999/swap?src=0xeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee&dst=0xB8CE59FC3717ada4C02eaDF9682A9e934F625ebb&amount=1000000000000000000&from=YOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS&slippage=1"
Response:
{
  "dstAmount": "12723902882990271",
  "tx": {
    "from": "0xYOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS",
    "to": "0xcce7452db4392b40aa0e1592a7c486e13bf69654",
    "data": "0x...",
    "value": "1000000000000000000",
    "gasPrice": "1000000000",
    "gas": "231973"
  },
  "encodedTx": "0x..."
}
5

Sign and broadcast

Submit the transaction object from step 4 to the blockchain.
JavaScript (viem)
const { tx } = swap;

const hash = await walletClient.sendTransaction({
  to: tx.to,
  data: tx.data,
  value: BigInt(tx.value),
  gasPrice: BigInt(tx.gasPrice),
  gas: BigInt(tx.gas),
});

const receipt = await publicClient.waitForTransactionReceipt({ hash });
console.log('Swap confirmed:', receipt.transactionHash);
The tx object is ready to use directly — no ABI encoding required. Just pass it to your wallet’s sendTransaction method.
