approve(spender, value)

Lets the PolygonPool smart contract transfer user's ANKR tokens (needed to pay fees when unstaking aMATICb).

Parameters
  • spender (address, required) — address of the PolygonPool contract.
  • value (uint256, required) — amount of ANKR to be transferred.
Smart contract
Example

unstakeBonds(uint256 amount, uint256 fee, uint256 useBeforeBlock, bytes signature)

Lets the PolygonPool to exchange aMATICb for MATIC.

Parameters
  • amount (uint256, required) — amount aMATICc to be unstake.
  • fee (uint256, required) — fee paid in ANKR for the unstaking operation. Get the value from the unstakeFee endpoint response.
  • useBeforeBlock (uint256, required) — last valid blockchain block to unstake before. Get the value from the unstakeFee endpoint response.
  • signature (bytes, required) — notary signature for the fees. Get the value from the unstakeFee endpoint response.
Smart contract
Example

Unstake aMATICc and claim MATIC

unstakeFee

RESTful API endpoint that return the current fee value for the unstaking operation.

Parameters
  • address (address, required) — address of the staker.
Request

approve(spender, value)

Lets the PolygonPool smart contract transfer user's ANKR tokens (needed to pay fees when unstaking aMATICb).

Parameters
  • spender (address, required) — address of the PolygonPool contract.
  • value (uint256, required) — amount of ANKR to be transferred.
Smart contract
Example

approve(spender, amount)

Approves the aMATICb smart contract to transfer user's aMATICc tokens to itself from the aMATICc smart contact and burn them.

Parameters
  • spender (address, required) — address of the aMATICb contract.
  • amount (uint256, required) — amount of aMATICc to be burned.
Smart contract
Example

unstakeCerts(uint256 shares, uint256 fee, uint256 useBeforeBlock, bytes signature)

Lets the PolygonPool to exchange aMATICc for MATIC.

Parameters
  • shares (uint256, required) — amount aMATICc to be unstake.
  • fee (uint256, required) — fee paid in ANKR for the unstaking operation. Get the value from the unstakeFee endpoint response.
  • useBeforeBlock (uint256, required) — last valid blockchain block to unstake before. Get the value from the unstakeFee endpoint response.
  • signature (bytes, required) — notary signature for the fees. Get the value from the unstakeFee endpoint response.
Smart contract
Example

Get APR

averagePercentageRate(uint256 day)

Gets the APR for aMATICb or aMATICc.

The formula is best expressed by an example.

With 3 provided as the depth, the APR = ((((day 3 - day 2) / day 3) * 100) + ((day 2 - day 1) / day 2) * 100) + ((day 1 - current day) / day 1) * 100) / 3) * 365.

Parameters
  • day (uint256, required) — number of days to get the APR for. Max value — 7 days.
  • address (address, required) — address of the token contract to determine which token to get the APR for. Possible values: aMATICb — 0x99534Ef705Df1FFf4e4bD7bbaAF9b0dFf038EbFe, aMATICc — 0x26dcfbfa8bc267b250432c01c982eaf81cc5480c.
