Send Ether Transaction

Search…
If you have replaced your web3 provider with Fortmatic provider, nothing needs to be changed for web3 send Ether transactions to continue working.
The Fortmatic X modal will pop open and ask users to confirm their transaction once this web3 function is called on the client-side.

Custom Gas Price
Fortmatic provides the option to offer a customized gas price. If provided, it will be shown as a suggested option in the delivery fee section. One parameter addition to include a customized gas price should suffice. Gas limit is optional, if not provided, Fortmatic will smartly estimate the gas limit for the transaction!
