The prerequisites for cashing a check are the same whether you are cashing it for an exact amount or a flexible amount.
- You need the ID of a Check object currently in the ledger.
- For example, the ID of one Check in these examples is
838766BA2B995C00744175F69A1B11E32C3DBC40E64801A4056FCBD657F57334, although you must use a different ID to go through these steps yourself.
- For example, the ID of one Check in these examples is
- The address and secret key of the Check's stated recipient. The address must match the
Destinationaddress in the Check object. - If the Check is for an issued currency, you (the recipient) must have a trust line to the issuer. Your limit on that trust line must be high enough to hold your previous balance plus the amount you would receive.
- For more information on trust lines and limits, see Issued Currencies and Trust Lines and Issuing.
- A secure way to sign transactions.
- A client library that can connect to the XRP Ledger, or any HTTP or WebSocket client.
