Welcome to the official Bixgate API documentation. Bixgate offers a powerful and flexible API for businesses, e-commerce platforms, fintech solutions, and iGaming operators to manage user wallets, accept deposits, handle withdrawals, and integrate crypto payments seamlessly.
Getting Started
The Bixgate API is a RESTful API available under https://api.bixgate.com
. All requests must include your X-Api-Key
in the headers and use application/json
as the Accept
header.
GET /v1/currency Host: api.bixgate.com X-Api-Key: YOUR_API_KEY Accept: application/json
You can manage your gateways, API keys, and webhooks directly in your dashboard: To Your Dashboard.
Gateway Types
Bixgate provides two types of crypto payment gateways:
1. Public Gateway
- Bixgate covers gas fees, manages HD wallets, and handles sweeps.
- Quick setup โ ideal for most businesses.
- Not portable โ wallets cannot be migrated.
- Great for platforms that want Bixgate to manage everything.
2. Dedicated Gateway
- Can migrate wallets to your own infrastructure anytime.
- You handle fees, node availability, and HD wallet security.
- Flexible and powerful โ for teams with technical capability.
๐ก Invoice-based Wallet Mode will be available in Q1 2026.
๐ Instant Crypto-to-Crypto Exchange is coming in Q2 2026.
Integration Flow
- Create a Gateway (Public or Dedicated).
- Generate your API Key in the dashboard.
- Activate your Webhook (URL + HMAC Secret).
- Use the API to create a SubUser (your end customer).
- Display wallet address and available currency/network .
- Listen for Deposit and Withdraw Webhooks.
- Balance is swept to your main wallet automatically (configurable in dedicated).
- Use the API to check balances, rates, transactions, or withdraw funds.
Webhook Integration
Webhooks notify you when key events happen, like successful deposits or withdrawals. You must configure:
- Webhook URL โ your endpoint
- HMAC Secret โ used to verify authenticity
Signature Verification (C#)
public static string GenerateHmacSha256(string secretKey, string payload) { var encoding = Encoding.UTF8; using var hmac = new HMACSHA256(encoding.GetBytes(secretKey)); var hashBytes = hmac.ComputeHash(encoding.GetBytes(payload)); return BitConverter.ToString(hashBytes).Replace("-", "").ToLower(); // hex format }
Webhook Payload Sample
{ "Event": "Withdraw", "SubUserIdentifier": "cfa16b86", "Data": { "TxId": "d16dea338c61....", "InternalHash": "BixBT36328ac7d62b....", "BlockNumber": 0, "Amount": 4.5171, "Address": "TPhCMv****DACb5NqMVZ", "InteractedWalletAddress": "TCtXL2ZXN*****NjXzz", "TransactionTypeId": 2, "StatusId": 3, "UsdRate": 0.33206, "UsdTotal": 1.49998, "Currency": { "Id": 2, "Name": "TRON", "Symbol": "TRX", "ContractAddress": "native", "NetworkId": 3, "DecimalPlaces": 4, "IsActive": true, "Logo": "[logo url]", "Network": { "Id": 3, "Name": "TRON", "IsActive": true, "Logo": "[logo url]" } }, "BlockchainWallet": { "DepositAddress": "TPhC****b5NqMVZ", "IsActive": true, "Network": { "Id": 3, "Name": "TRON", "IsActive": true, "Logo": "[logo url]" } }, "Status": "Processing", "TransactionType": "Withdraw" }, "GatewayName": "test", "RetryCount": 0, "Timestamp": "2025-06-08T22:24:32.1049434Z" } }
Standard API Response Format
All responses follow a standardized JSON format:
{ "IsSuccess": true, "Data": { ... }, "ErrorCode": null, "ErrorMessage": null, "ValidationErrors": [], "CorrelationId": "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx" }

for troubleshooting and traceability. It propagates through services and is returned in all responses.
