A crypto payment gateway without custody
Accept crypto through hosted checkout, payment links, API sessions and signed webhooks while funds settle straight to your own wallet.
Gateway tools, not a held balance
Apa gives merchants the pieces they expect from a payment gateway: checkout URLs, payment links, API keys, event webhooks, payment statuses and admin visibility. The difference is custody. Apa does not hold a merchant balance that you withdraw later; the payment settles to the payout wallet you control.
- Hosted checkout for online stores
- Payment links for invoices, DMs and single sellers
- REST API and signed webhooks for backend integrations
- Direct wallet settlement with no Apa-held balance
For shops and solo sellers
A larger merchant can create checkout sessions from its backend. A smaller seller can create a payment link from the dashboard. Both flows use the same payout wallet, same status model and same non-custodial settlement logic.
- Use links when you do not need a custom checkout integration
- Use API checkout when your store needs order references and webhooks
- Track payments in one merchant dashboard
Built around the checkout jobs that matter
Apa keeps the merchant-facing model simple: create a payment, let the customer pay, receive status updates, and settle to the wallet you control.
Direct payments stay free
When the customer pays the exact asset on your payout wallet's network, the payment is direct and Apa charges nothing.
Routed payments use one flat fee
If the payment needs asset or network conversion, Apa quotes and orchestrates the route with a flat 1.5% fee.
Backend-ready integration
Create checkout sessions, restrict accepted assets, attach metadata and listen for signed status events.
Crypto payment gateway FAQ
Is Apa a custodial crypto payment gateway?
No. Apa provides checkout, routing and status tooling, but merchant funds settle to the merchant's own wallet instead of an Apa-held balance.
Can I use Apa without writing code?
Yes. Payment links let a merchant create a hosted checkout link from the dashboard and share it with a customer.
Can online stores integrate with an API?
Yes. Stores can create checkout sessions from a backend, redirect customers to hosted checkout and reconcile payments through signed webhooks.
