Checkout

Create products and payment links, then let customers pay with USDC through hosted checkout.

Payments

Manage payments, subscription charges, payouts, refunds, and other balance activity.

Subscriptions

Manage recurring payments, invoices, and subscription status.

Seller onboarding

Onboard sellers to your marketplace via a hosted flow where they can enter their details and connect a wallet.

Identity verification

Set verification rules and review sellers who need an identity check.

Seller dashboard

Give each seller an Express-style dashboard for viewing earnings, payouts, and account details.

A familiar API

Zoneless uses familiar resources such as Checkout Sessions, Payment Links, Customers, Products, Subscriptions, Accounts, Transfers, and Payouts. It also follows Stripe's object shapes, webhook patterns, and idempotency model.

If you have worked with Stripe before, the SDK should feel familiar:

import { Zoneless } from '@zoneless/node';
const client = new Zoneless('sk_live_z_YOUR_API_KEY', 'https://api.zoneless.com');

const session = await client.checkout.sessions.create({
  success_url: 'https://yoursite.com/success',
  cancel_url: 'https://yoursite.com/cancel',
  line_items: [
    {
      price_data: {
        currency: 'usdc',
        unit_amount: 1000,
        product_data: { name: 'My first product' },
      },
      quantity: 1,
    },
  ],
  mode: 'payment',
});

The API covers checkout, subscriptions, and marketplace payouts. See the API reference for the full list of resources and endpoints.

Running in production

Zoneless was built for PromptBase, an AI marketplace with more than 500,000 users, and runs its seller payout infrastructure in production.
