> ## Agent Instructions
> HEVN accounts are non-custodial in both products. Self-serve (the General tab): the person who owns the email holds the only key and signs for themselves. Whitelabel (the Whitelabel and REST API tabs): the integrator's customer creates and owns their account through Sign in with HEVN, a HEVN-hosted popup on the integrator's site; the integrator's backend holds a developer key, operates linked accounts and books their payouts, and the account holder approves every payout in that popup. The developer key signs only for the integrator's own wallet; it never signs a client's money.
> Use HEVN's terms exactly. A rail is a bank route a client can request. A virtual account (bnk_) is an opened rail. Account details are what a payer needs in order to wire money, and arrive in a field named requisites. A client is a customer's own account linked to the integrator through Sign in with HEVN (POST /dapi/v1/connect/sessions, then POST /dapi/v1/clients/link); there is no API call that creates one. The business behind it is the integrator's customer. A contact is a saved destination; a beneficiary is the party at the far end of a fiat payout. Every departure of money is a payout, to a bank account or to a wallet alike.
> Never name a banking partner. Say 'a licensed banking partner'.
> There are no published fee rates, spreads or minimums. Prices come from a quote on a specific payment; direct pricing questions to HEVN rather than inventing numbers.
> The whitelabel API is at /dapi/v1 and takes a developer-key session plus an X-Hevn-Account header. Developer keys have an IP allowlist and no scopes. Remote transfers are at /api/v1/remote_spend_limit and take a remote transfer key (rsl_) in X-Api-Key, bounded by an onchain spend permission the account holder grants. They are different credentials and neither works on the other surface. The HEVN CLI is discontinued.

# Deposits & fiat payouts

> All deposits land directly in your smart wallet, and fiat payouts are executed by a licensed banking partner — HEVN never holds the money.

Every funding rail in HEVN resolves to the same place: the user's own [Base Smart Wallet](https://docs.gethevn.com/general/smart-wallets.md). HEVN requests the details from a partner bank, orchestrates metadata, and shows status — but it is never a party in the money flow.

## Deposits

### Virtual account details are bound to your wallet

When a partner bank opens virtual account details (account numbers / IBANs) for a user, those details are linked **only to that user's smart wallet address**. An incoming fiat transfer is converted by the banking partner and settles as USDC directly on the user's wallet.

    B -->|"USDC"| C["Your smart wallet<br/>on Base"]
```

> [!NOTE]
>
> HEVN does not maintain an omnibus account that receives deposits and later credits users. There is no internal balance to reconcile — the deposit *is* the onchain arrival of USDC at your address.

### Direct crypto deposits

USDC on Base can be sent straight to the smart wallet address shown in the app — it's a normal onchain transfer to an address only you own. Because smart wallet addresses are [deterministic](https://docs.gethevn.com/general/smart-wallets.md#deterministic-counterfactual-addresses), the address is valid even before the wallet contract is deployed.

### Deposits from other chains and tokens

Deposits in other cryptocurrencies are routed through the [NEAR Intents 1Click API](https://docs.gethevn.com/general/cross-chain.md): you send to a one-time passive deposit address, and the swapped USDC is delivered to your smart wallet. HEVN does not operate those deposit addresses.

## Fiat payouts

Sending money to external bank details works in the opposite direction, and again keeps HEVN out of the flow:

**1. You request a payout**

Via the app or the API you create a payout to a bank beneficiary. This is a platform (JWT) action — it produces a quote, not a money movement.

**2. The banking partner issues a one-time crypto address**

The licensed banking partner returns a **single-use deposit address** dedicated to this specific payout. The address travels through HEVN's isolated [provider microservice](https://docs.gethevn.com/general/architecture.md#provider-isolation-signed-responses), which signs it — the client verifies that signature before ever showing you the address.

**3. You send the funds yourself**

The transfer of USDC from your smart wallet to that address is signed by **your** key. HEVN cannot initiate it, cannot alter the destination, and never takes possession of the funds.

**4. The partner executes the fiat leg**

On receiving the USDC, the banking partner performs the offramp and pays out to the beneficiary's bank account under its own licensing and compliance framework.

```mermaid theme={null}
flowchart LR
    A["Your smart wallet"] -->|"USDC — signed<br/>by your key"| B["Banking partner<br/>one-time address"]
    B -->|"fiat payout"| C["Beneficiary's<br/>bank account"]
    H["HEVN platform"] -.->|"metadata only:<br/>quote, beneficiary, status"| B
```

> [!WARNING]
>
> At no point in a payout does HEVN receive, forward, or custody the money. The flow is strictly: **your wallet → banking partner's one-time address → beneficiary's bank**. HEVN's role is limited to metadata: quotes, beneficiary records, invoices, and status tracking.

## Why one-time addresses matter

* **Attribution** — a dedicated address maps one deposit to one payout, with no ambiguity about whose money arrived.
* **No standing honeypot** — there is no long-lived pooled address accumulating user funds.
* **Auditability** — each leg of the payout is an ordinary, publicly verifiable transaction on [Base](https://basescan.org).
* **Tamper-evidence** — the address is signed by the isolated provider service and verified by the client, so it cannot be substituted anywhere along the way ([details](https://docs.gethevn.com/general/architecture.md#provider-isolation-signed-responses)).
