Smart Contract Functions

If you have replaced your web3 provider with Fortmatic provider, nothing needs to be changed for web3 contract transactions to continue working. The following is an example on how to initiate a ERC20 smart contract token transfer.
Web3 Pre-1.0 Stable Versions
Web3 1.0 Beta Version
// Initialize provider
import Fortmatic from 'fortmatic';
import Web3 from 'web3';
​
const fm = new Fortmatic('YOUR_API_KEY');
window.web3 = new Web3(fm.getProvider());
​
// Get the contract ABI from compiled smart contract json
