Institutional OTC

For transactions exceeding $50,000 USD, we recommend using our Institutional OTC (Over-The-Counter) desk. This service provides personalized support, deeper liquidity, and specialized settlement options.

When to use OTC?

High-Volume Trades: Large tickets that would cause market impact on public order books.
Custom Settlements: Requests for specific banking rails or same-day cross-border corridors.
Privacy: Execute large trades without publicly broadcasting intent on-chain until the trade is finalized.

How it Works

1. Requesting Access

OTC access requires Institutional Tier Verification. If you are already at this level, you can request a quote via our API or dedicated chat channels (Slack/Telegram).

2. The Request for Quote (RFQ)

Submit a trade request defining your side (Buy/Sell) and the desired volume.

POST /v1/otc/quotes
{
  "pair": "USD_USDC",
  "amount": "250000.00",
  "side": "buy"
}

3. Locking the Rate

Linka will return a firm quote valid for 60 seconds. Large trades require fast confirmation to lock in global market rates.

4. Settlement

Once confirmed, settlement instructions are generated. For OTC trades, we support:

FedWire / SWIFT (USD, EUR)
Local LatAm Rails (MXN, CLP, COP)
On-chain Transfer (Any supported network)

Fiat to Crypto: USD/USDC, MXN/USDT, CLP/USDC.
