Overview
Manages authentication and creates wallet elements. The WalletSession handles token management, element creation, and provides convenience methods for showing wallet elements in modals. For v1, mint the token via the existingwhop.accessTokens.create({ company_id }) flow —
the same backend mutation that powers PayoutsSession. No new mutation is required.
Examples
Basic usage
Options
| Property | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
token | Token | GetToken | Yes | - | The token to use for the session. If a function is provided, it will be called and awaited to get the token. When a function is provided, the token will be refreshed automatically before it expires. if a string is provided, it will be used as the token and not refreshed automatically. However you can update the token at runtime by calling ‘updateOptions’ with a new token. For v1, mint this token from your backend with the existing ‘whop.accessTokens.create()’ call — the same approach used by ‘PayoutsSession’. A dedicated ‘wallet:*’ scope set is on the roadmap. |
companyId | string | Yes | - | The company ID that owns the wallet. Accepts a ‘biz_*’ ID. The wallet’s underlying ledger account is resolved server-side from this value. (A polymorphic ‘ledger_account_id’ parameter is on the roadmap once ‘wallet:session:create’ ships.) |
currency | string | undefined | No | ”USD” | The currency to format display amounts in. |
Events

Callback signature: (options: ExpandedWalletSessionOptions) => void
tokenRefreshed
Emitted when the authentication token is refreshed.
Callback signature: (token: string) => void
tokenRefreshError
Emitted when token refresh fails.
Callback signature: (error: unknown) => void
error
Emitted when an error occurs during session operation.
Callback signature: (error: unknown) => void
ready

Methods
createElement(type, options)
Create a new element instance.
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
type | T | { type: T; } | The element type (e.g., “deposit-element”) |
options | WalletSessionElements[T][0] | Element-specific configuration options |
WalletSessionElements[T][1]
updateOptions(options)
Update the session options after initialization.
Changes will be propagated to all active elements.
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
options | Partial<WalletSessionOptions> | Partial options object with the values to update |
destroy()
Destroy the session and clean up all mounted elements.
Call this when you no longer need the session to free up resources.
Modal Methods
showDepositModal(options, force)
Show the deposit element in a modal overlay.
By default, the modal auto-closes on dismiss (onClose). onDeposit fires
when the user continues past amount entry and keeps the modal open so the
transfer instructions stay visible.
Call ev.preventDefault() in the close callback to prevent auto-close.
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
options | DepositElementOptions | ((modal: ModalContainer) => DepositElementOptions) | undefined | Element options or a callback that receives the modal container |
force | Force | undefined | - |
Force extends true ? ModalContainer : ModalContainer | undefined
