Overview

Develop advanced custom checkout experiences.

The Checkout API is designed to allow creators to use Tebex's Merchant of Record platform without the need to use a Tebex-powered webstore.

If you haven't already done so, we recommend having a read of our quick start guide before beginning integration.

This means creators can create baskets with custom products (as opposed to pre-created products on our webstore platform), and send customers directly to the checkout flow to proceed with payment.

The Checkout API can be used with Tebex.js for a fully embedded checkout experience without the user ever leaving your own website.

Terminology

Term	Description
Basket	To start a transaction, a basket must be created. The basket, similar to a standard eCommerce basket will contain the items that the customer is purchasing
Ident	A string identifier representing the basket

Checkout API Flow

Below is the expected flow your application should follow when implementing the Checkout API. This should be considered a general guideline. For a full list of endpoints available, see the Endpoints page.

You have two options for implementing Checkout API. We include a Checkout request where all data about the customer and their desired packages can be provided in one request.

Option 1. Using the Checkout Request

If your app has existing basket functionality, we recommend using a Checkout request. You can send the details of your customer, basket, and sale information all in one request:

Create a checkout request

This API call allows the complete checkout flow (create basket, add items, add sale) to be made in a single API call, for when the Seller is managing the basket locally. This endpoint requires prior approval - please contact your account manager.

POSThttps://checkout.tebex.io/api/checkout

Body

application/json

Provide a Basket, an array of Packages to be added to the basket, and an optional Sale to complete the full checkout flow in one call. Only one subscription item may be in the basket at a time.

Option 2. Using the Tebex Basket

If you do not have existing basket functionality in your app, you can use the Checkout API to fully manage the customer's basket on Tebex:

1. Create a basket for the customer.

   • Your app should save the ident value for reference later, as this is the identifier for this customer's basket.
