How Automation Works
Each automation rule has two modes:- Convert & Hold: Deposit funds, convert them to a target asset, and hold the result in the same profile.
- Convert & Transfer: Deposit funds, convert them to a target asset, and send the result to a different profile, external bank account, or wallet.
- Create an automation rule that defines the deposit type (USD or crypto), the target asset, and whether to hold or transfer the result.
- Paxos generates deposit instructions for the automation rule.
- Send funds using the generated deposit instructions.
- When funds arrive, Paxos automatically executes the rule.
