Distributed Commerce

DISTRIBUTE YOUR BUY BUTTON WITH THE WORLD'S FIRST PCI-COMPLIANT API PLATFORM

Customers want to transact any place, any time. It's a huge opportunity for merchants, but how do you build transactions into every possible customer touch point securely and easily? And what if you want to accept payments from strategic business partners?

The answer is Mashery Distributed Commerce.

Mashery Distributed Commerce is a distribution platform for your commerce engine. It lets you take purchases and other financial transactions securely through any app or partner.

Mashery Distributed Commerce beats traditional affiliate programs because partners can take transactions without users leaving their sites and apps. Unlike "scrapers"—companies that kludge together poorly designed mobile apps by scanning your website—Mashery Distributed Commerce promotes transactional apps with native gestures. That means great user experiences, no dependencies on your website, and more revenue.

HOW MASHERY DISTRIBUTED COMMERCE WORKS

Ask app developers what they need to deploy transactions quickly on lots of devices, and you'll quickly hear "give me an API"—application programming interface. Mashery Distributed Commerce opens commerce APIs so developers and affiliates can build your transactions into new apps.

It can work two ways:


  • 1. Take credit card transactions through Mashery's PCI Compliant API proxy

    Open PCI compliant APIs for accepting credit card transactions from trusted strategic partners. Choose who has access to your API and how often they can use it, see reports on mobile transactions, and much more. Mashery is the first and only PCI-compliant API management company.


  • 2. Use OAuth for payment accounts on file

    Enable payment authorizations with OAuth 1.0 or 2.0 through Mashery Distributed Commerce OAuth Accelerator>

    MASHERY DISTRIBUTED COMMERCE: THE NEXT STEP IN API EVOLUTION

    In the beginning, there were read-only APIs (think store locators). Then came write APIs, like Twitter, that let users post information. With Mashery Distributed Commerce, companies can now expose commerce APIs, enabling developers to build transactions into applications on any app, device, or social network.
