Use a spending limit to move tokens between addresses.

​
Key Concepts

  • Spending Limit Validation: The amount must be within the remaining limit
  • Transaction Signing: Only authorized signers can create transactions
  • Destination: Tokens will be sent to the specified destination address

​
Important Notes

  • The amount cannot exceed the remaining limit
  • The spending limit must not be expired
  • The destination must be an allowed address if the spending limit has destination restrictions
