Buy Tokens on Solana with Jupiter Swap v6 API

🎯 What Is the “Buy Token” Endpoint?

The buy endpoint in Jupiter Swap v6 allows you to swap one token for a fixed amount of another token.

Unlike traditional swap methods that specify the amount you give, this endpoint lets users define how much of the target token they want to receive—making it perfect for purchase-focused flows like:

Buying a specific number of tokens (e.g., "Buy 100 BONK")

Spending just enough USDC to reach a desired target

Implementing precise budgeting in automated swap strategies

🔑 Key Benefits

✅ Targeted Token Amounts

Let your users define exactly how much they want to receive—not just how much they want to spend.

✅ Optimal Routing

The API automatically calculates the best swap path using Jupiter’s deep liquidity sources, ensuring the most efficient and cost-effective transaction.

✅ Great for Checkout & Payment Flows

Perfect for NFT marketplaces, token sales, or any situation where users need to purchase a fixed quantity.

✅ Slippage Protection

Set custom slippage tolerance so users don’t get unexpected results due to price volatility.

⚙️ How It Works (At a Glance)

To use the buy endpoint, you'll pass in parameters like:

buyToken: the token you want to receive

sellToken: the token you're using to pay

buyAmount: the exact amount you want to receive

Optional: slippage, fees, user public key, etc.

The API returns a full quote and swap route, which you can then use to build and send the transaction.

dApp Developers who want tight control over swap outcomes
