REST API for Gemini Cryptocurrency Exchange

Overview

Gemini’s REST API provides programmatic access to its crypto exchange platform with JSON responses. It includes endpoints for market data (ticker prices, order book depth, trade history), trading operations (place/cancel orders, check status), and account management (balance inquiries, transaction logs, deposit/withdrawal tracking). Ideal for building automated trading bots, integrating real-time exchange data into financial apps, or managing portfolios programmatically. Private endpoints use HMAC signature authentication for security, while public endpoints are open for market data access.

Example Integration (JavaScript)

script.js JS


fetch('https://docs.gemini.com/rest-api/')
  .then(res => res.json())
  .then(data => console.log(data))
  .catch(err => console.error(err));
