Introduction

What MoonPoay is and how the API is shaped.

The MoonPoay API exposes a small, opinionated surface for accepting local payments across LATAM, EU, and APAC and settling them as crypto. It is RESTful, returns JSON, and uses standard HTTP verbs and status codes. Everything you can do from the dashboard, you can do from the API.

Highlights

Hosted checkout
Drop-in payment page with live cascade and risk routing.
Server APIs
Direct charge, refund, retrieve, and list with cursor pagination.
Signed webhooks
HMAC-SHA256 with replay protection and timestamp window.

Design principles

  • Predictable: standard HTTP semantics, no envelope on success bodies, never an HTML error.
  • Idempotent: every POST accepts Idempotency-Key.
  • Versioned: pin a date and stay on it. New optional fields are not breaking changes.
  • Compliant by default: hosted checkout keeps PAN out of your servers; webhooks are signed.
