About Hosted Checkout
Hosted Checkout is an integration type designed for web store owners who want to use the Neon Checkout API to securely process payments.
With this integration flow, the player selects an item for purchase on your website, after which your backend creates a Checkout session through the Neon API. Neon then generates a secure, hosted checkout page, and the user is redirected there to complete the payment.
Once the payment flow is completed, the player is redirected back to your website. Your backend can then receive purchase confirmation through Neon webhooks and assign the purchased items or entitlements to the user.
This integration allows you to keep your existing storefront experience while using Neon’s payment infrastructure, checkout flow, and merchant-of-record capabilities.
With Hosted Checkout, you can initiate purchases from your web interface, such as your web store, promotional landing pages, email campaigns, or social media promotions, through your server. This allows you to maintain full control over how offers are presented while leveraging Neon’s payment infrastructure and checkout experience.

Who Is Hosted Checkout For?
Hosted Checkout is designed for teams that:

Unlike Embedded Checkout, which allows you to securely render Neon Checkout within your website, Hosted Checkout is served on a dedicated secure page hosted by Neon. This allows Neon to manage the checkout environment while you focus on your storefront and player experience.
With this integration flow, the player selects an item for purchase on your website or application, after which your backend creates a checkout session through the Neon API. Neon then generates a secure hosted checkout page, and the player is redirected there to complete the payment.
Once the payment flow is completed, the player is redirected back to your website. Your backend can then receive purchase confirmation through Neon webhooks and grant purchased items, virtual currency, or entitlements to the player.
This integration allows you to keep your existing storefront experience while using Neon’s payment infrastructure, Neon Checkout features, secure checkout flow, and Merchant of Record capabilities.
