# Anchor Client The **Anchor Client** is the developer-facing library for interacting with Anchor services. It abstracts the complexity of service discovery, authentication, request signing, and communication with anchors. ### **Purpose** The Anchor Client provides: * **Automatic service discovery** via the Anchor Resolver * **Request authentication** using Keeta account signatures * **Type-safe APIs** for each anchor service type * **Error handling** with user-friendly error messages * **Multi-provider support** to query multiple anchors simultaneously ### **Who Uses It** Anchor Clients are used by: * **Wallet developers** building user-facing applications * **DApp developers** integrating fiat on/off ramps * **Exchange developers** connecting to liquidity providers * **Payment processors** routing transactions through optimal providers * **Trading platforms** accessing FX services The Anchor Client is analogous to the `keetanet-client` library – while `keetanet-client` lets you interact with Keeta, the Anchor Client lets you interact with anchor services that connect to traditional finance and other blockchain networks. ### **Key Features** **Service-Specific Clients**: Each anchor service has its own specialized client: * `KeetaAnchor.FX.Client` - Foreign exchange operations * `KeetaAnchor.AssetMovement.Client` - Cross-chain and fiat transfers * `KeetaAnchor.KYC.Client` - Identity verification services **Standardized Server Interaction**: The client abstracts the complexity of working with anchor servers: * Handles HTTP communication and request formatting * Automatically signs requests with your Keeta account * Validates and verifies signed responses from providers * Converts between on-chain and off-chain data formats * Provides consistent error handling across all anchor types * Makes it easy to query and compare multiple providers ### **Example: Using the FX Client** {% @github-files/github-code-block url="" %} --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
