This endpoint allows you to simulate a crypto deposit based on the details returned by the Setup account deposit method endpoint. It is useful for testing how your application handles incoming crypto deposits without needing to perform an actual testnet transfer. Since this is a simulated deposit and does not use a real testnet, the transaction hash will not be available on the blockchain. Check out Testnets and token faucets for instructions on how to fund your sandbox account using an actual testnet transaction.
Depending on the country and/or the amount, the simulated crypto deposit may be placed on-hold pending Requests for Information (RFIs). See Handle on-hold transactions for more details.
