# Supporting meta transactions

All Swipeswap pool tokens support meta-transaction approvals via the permit function. This obviates the need for a blocking approve transaction before programmatic interactions with pool tokens can occur.

## ERC-712 <a href="#erc-712" id="erc-712"></a>

In vanilla ERC-20 token contracts, owners may only register approvals by directly calling a function which uses `msg.sender` to permission itself. With meta-approvals, ownership and permissioning are derived from a signature passed into the function by the caller (sometimes referred to as the relayer). Because signing data with Ethereum private keys can be a tricky endeavor, Swipeswap relies on [ERC-712](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-712), a signature standard with widespread community support, to ensure user safety and wallet compatibility.

### Domain Separator <a href="#domain-separator" id="domain-separator"></a>

```
keccak256(
  abi.encode(
    keccak256('EIP712Domain(string name,string version,uint256 chainId,address verifyingContract)'),
    keccak256(bytes(name)),
    keccak256(bytes('1')),
    chainId,
    address(this)
  )
);
```

* `name` is always `Uniswap V2`.
* `chainId` is determined from the [ERC-1344](https://ethereum-magicians.org/t/eip-1344-add-chain-id-opcode/1131) `chainid` opcode.
* `address(this)` is the address of the pair, see [Pair Addresses](/swap/smart-contract/pair-addresses.md#getpair).
