Overview

Interacting with digital assets and USD at Anchorage Digital is a seamless experience designed to enable simple move money flows while providing a variety of options to meet the specific needs of your use case.

Transfers and withdrawals

Transfers

Transfers are used to move money without requiring quorum approval for each movement. This makes them ideal for recurring or high-frequency operations. To enable a transfer, you must complete some initial configurations, such as allowlisting a trusted destination and linking the appropriate API permissions. Transfers can be made to both internal and external addresses.

Withdrawals

Withdrawals are an option for moving money that always require quorum approval. This allows you to maintain granular control over transactions by applying specific quorum policies for each individual operation.

Move money support

Quorum

Anchorage Digital quorum operation endorsements are required for some, but not all move money operations. These depend on the APIs you're using and if the destination is internal or external.

Quorum required

Trusted destinations

Trusted destinations or allowlisted addresses at Anchorage Digital enable you to pre-approve an external address for you to leverage across our iOS and web client dashboards as well as APIs. For some operations, these are required.

USD external transfers or withdrawals will require you to create a trusted destination for your USD destination. This can only be done via web dashboard today.
