# Build with the Direct Trade API

Operate your organization's Axiym accounts for your own activity or as part of services you provide to clients.

Product: Direct Trade API
Guides follow API reference 0.1.0 and event reference 0.1.0.
Canonical page: https://docs.axiym.io/direct-trade-api

The Direct Trade API keeps every account and operation in your organization’s
Axiym context. You can use it for your own activity or as part of services you
provide to clients.

**When to use the Client Trade API**

Use the [Client Trade API](/trade-api) instead when each client
should complete Axiym onboarding and own its Axiym accounts and activity.
