Products

A product represents a digital security or a crypto security issued by an entity on a distributed ledger network.

Products are referenced in the API using the product ID. Using the products endpoint you can retrieve all products on the platform.

You can only retrieve products listed by an issuer to be distributed by you. Further agreements between the issuer and you might be required.

Digital securities vs crypto securities

Digital securities or security tokens are securities that are not issued under the eWpG regulation in Germany.

Crypto securities are issued under the eWpG law where a crypto security registrar is taking care of KYC, AML, issuer identifications and is running an on chain registrar that holds the relation between investors and investments. Cashlink is operating as a crypto security registrar.

Campaigns

Products can have one or more campaigns used on the primary market for distribution. The total available allocation of a product can be split into any number of campaigns. The total allocation spread across all campaigns must not exceed the total allocation of the product.

Campaigns are referenced in the API using the campaign ID. You can use the campaigns endpoints to retrieve all campaigns for a product. You will only be able to see campaigns that are unlocked for your API user. The Issuer will create a campaign for you.

It's not possible to create campaigns via the Distributor API. Campaigns are created for your distribution platform by the issuer.
