Revolut X Balance

Revolut X Balance

Capabilities

• Fetch all account balances (available, reserved, staked, total)
• Verify sufficient funds before placing orders
• Compute portfolio value in fiat using ticker data

Authentication & setup

All endpoints require authentication. See revolut-x-auth for setup.

API versioning

All endpoints use path-based versioning: /api/1.0/. The version is included in every request path.

Common workflows

Fetch balances

python scripts/revx_sign.py GET /api/1.0/balances

Expected output: JSON array of balance objects with currency, available, reserved, staked, total fields.

Display balances in a readable table. Key fields:

• available — funds ready for new orders
• reserved — locked by open orders
• staked — earning staking rewards
• total — available + reserved + staked

Example 1: Check portfolio balances

User says: "What's my balance on Revolut X?"

Actions:

1. Run python scripts/revx_sign.py GET /api/1.0/balances
2. Parse the JSON array
3. Present as a formatted table: currency, available, reserved, total

Result: Table showing all currency balances.

Example 2: Verify funds before ordering

User says: "Do I have enough USD to buy $500 of BTC?"

Actions:

1. Run python scripts/revx_sign.py GET /api/1.0/balances
2. Find USD entry, check available >= 500
3. Report yes/no with exact available amount

Result: "You have $10,000.00 USD available — sufficient for a $500 order."

Example 3: Portfolio value in fiat

User says: "What's my total portfolio worth in USD?"

Actions:

1. Run python scripts/revx_sign.py GET /api/1.0/balances
2. Run python scripts/revx_sign.py GET /api/1.0/tickers (see revolut-x-market-data)
3. Multiply each crypto balance's total by its USD last_price
4. Sum all values

Result: Total portfolio value in USD.

Error handling

Error: 401 Unauthorized Cause: API key or signature invalid Solution: Run revolut-x-auth setup. Verify REVX_API_KEY and REVX_PRIVATE_KEY env vars.

Error: 429 Rate limit exceeded Cause: Too many requests Solution: Wait for duration in Retry-After header (milliseconds), then retry.

Important notes

• Balance available reflects funds not locked by open orders — use this for pre-order validation
• Zero-balance currencies may still appear in the response
• To compute fiat portfolio value, combine with ticker data from revolut-x-market-data
