# List VTU Transactions

GET https://shimi-waas-api-9493532b9281.herokuapp.com/api/v1/vtu/

Lists your airtime/data/utility/cable TV purchase history.

**Query params** (all optional):

| Param    | Type    | Notes                                                                            |
| -------- | ------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `page`   | integer | default 1                                                                        |
| `limit`  | integer | default 20, max 100                                                              |
| `status` | enum    | `PENDING`, `SUCCESS`, `FAILED`, `REVERSED` (case-sensitive; leave empty for all) |
| `type`   | enum    | `AIRTIME`, `DATA`, `CABLE_TV`, `UTILITY` (case-sensitive)                        |

Sorted newest first. `product` is `null` for airtime and utility. Invalid enum values or non-numeric `page`/`limit` are not validated and cause a server error.

**Error format:** body validation failures (Joi) return `{ "status": "error", "message": "Validation error", "details": [ ... ] }`; all other errors return `{ "success": false, "message": "..." }`. Money fields (`amount`, `fee`) are Prisma Decimals and are serialized as **strings** (e.g. `"1000"`).
