PayStand Releases API Providing Seamless, Secure, All-in-One Checkout and Payment Process for Bitcoin, eCheck and Credit Card
PayStand is a next generation payments gateway, introducing its API Thursday.
PayStand, a next generation online payment solution, is now making platform integration even easier with the introduction of the PayStand API. This is the first API to combine a solution for accepting Bitcoin, eCheck and credit cards. Developers can create desktop and mobile checkout experiences that retain the simple one-click checkout experience, but offer ever-increasing payment options to the end user.
Previously, companies have struggled with gaining access to a payment system, particularly one that integrates all three modern forms of payment. With PayStand’s new API, developers can seamlessly integrate the PayStand software into any platform, making the user experience smooth and convenient.
“The PayStand API is providing developers the opportunity to build any type of payment experience on top of the PayStand solution, so they can be innovative and creative in their approach to payments, taking advantage of Bitcoin, eCheck and credit card options. Developers are also happy to take advantage of the lowest rates offered through the payment API, given the nature of our unique Payments as a Service and wholesale rates business model,” said Jeremy Almond, CEO, PayStand.
PayStand already has a dozen prototype customers, including horsebills.com, as well as a micropayments and mobile gaming companies. Utilizing the new PayStand developer platform, organizations have access to:
- Mobile SDK – reduce payment friction in iOS apps with a full Objective C SDK to seamlessly move money in-app and enable what’s next in mobile commerce.
- Javascript Checkout, Buttons, Embeds – Easy to use drag and drop code enables developers to build customized checkout experience in just a few minutes with a few lines of code.
- Tokenization – take payments with credit cards and other sensitive data while reducing PCI compliance responsibilities
- RESTFUL APIs – built on modern standards-based technologies such as REST, OAuth, and JSON. Have full access to the enterprise grade back-office endpoints PayStand is built on.
PayStand will be providing a quick start guide and documentation here. Jeremy Almond introduced the PayStand API at the FinDEVR Conference in San Francisco yesterday.
