Developer payment API for commerce teams

Use VelvPay developer tools to connect payment workflows, review API activity and keep integration credentials separate from everyday business settings.

VelvPay connects customer payment flows with the verification, approval, document and audit controls a growing merchant needs before payment operations become risky to manage manually.

Problem

What this fixes

Payment integrations become risky when API credentials, webhook settings, logs and owner controls are mixed into ordinary business settings or shared over chat.

Platform fit

What VelvPay gives you

  • Developer Center for integration work
  • Payments API documentation and credential access
  • API logs for reviewing integration activity
  • Webhook configuration guidance
  • Headless commerce documentation for custom storefront integrations

How it works

A simple workflow from setup to payment visibility

  1. 1

    Review the Developer Center and the API documentation relevant to your use case.

  2. 2

    Create or retrieve the credentials your server-side integration needs.

  3. 3

    Monitor API activity and keep credentials separate from day-to-day business settings.

Why it matters

Compliance controls that support real payment operations

Developer workspace

Integration work is separated from owner security settings and everyday merchant operations.

Server-side key handling

The product copy directs teams to keep sensitive keys on their server, not in customer-facing code.

API visibility

API logs help teams review requests and responses without treating informal messages as the source of truth.

Commerce boundaries

Headless commerce documentation defines what custom storefront access can and cannot do.

Questions

Common questions

Clear answers before you choose this VelvPay workflow.

Does VelvPay support developer-led integrations?

Yes. VelvPay includes developer tools for payment API workflows and integration monitoring.

Are API credentials managed from security settings?

No. VelvPay keeps API credential management in the Developer Center so security settings stay focused on account protection.

Should API keys be used in frontend code?

No. Secret and encryption credentials should be kept on the merchant server or secure backend environment.

Is Headless commerce the same as the Payments API?

No. The Payments API is for payment integration work, while Headless commerce is for scoped custom storefront access where enabled.
