The REST API that acts as the bridge between your application and the card reader, controlling the state of the hardware and managing the financial transaction lifecycle.

Transaction Lifecycle

Simulation & Testing

A set of dedicated endpoints available in development environments to simulate card presentment events (e.g., swipe, decline, requires auth), allowing developers to build POS flows without physical hardware.
