TS: Reconciling Deposits

Handling missing or malformed memos.

Deposits with missing or malformed memos are the leading cause of support tickets for Stellar exchanges.

Reconciliation Flow

const result = extractRouting(input);

if (result.routingId === "") {
  // Case A: No memo provided
  // Case B: Memo was non-numeric text
  // Action: Hold deposit for manual review
} else {
  // Case C: Valid ID found
  // Action: Credit user account
}

Warning Handling

Pay close attention to NON_ROUTABLE_MEMO warnings. This happens when a user sends a MEMO_TEXT that contains their name instead of their ID.
