Setting Up Your Checkout Experience

If you don't yet have Console access, please fill out the form on our homepage, and we'll reach out to you soon to facilitate access. Through the Console, you'll complete the initial checkout experience setup and download your API keys. We use the Console to configure:

  • your checkout experience's look and feel
  • the method by which Neon will collect your players' identifying information in the checkout experience, for fulfillment purchases
  • other set-it-and-forget-it configurations

If Neon is powering your shop, please continue reading. If you are using Neon's checkout experience as a standalone product, you can skip the next section.

Checkout with Neon powered shop

If you are using Neon's Shop product, the Neon Shop will automatically create and launch a checkout flow for you. There is a one-to-one relationship between shops and checkout experience, and the checkout experience will inherit the operating mode, sandbox vs production, from your Neon Shop. You'll have a single set of API keys to manage your Neon Shop, associated checkout experience, and any purchases that are created through the checkout experience.

Given the Neon Shop will create and launch checkout experiences on your behalf, you can skip Initiating Your Checkout and jump directly to Updating Your Game.

Checkout with your own shop

Each checkout experience instance you set up in the Console will have a set of API keys that you'll use to access our APIs. Checkout experiences can either be in sandbox or production mode. Transactions in sandbox mode do not result in money movement, meaning no payment methods are processed, and no money moves into your bank account. Sandbox mode allows you to test your integration and checkout experience aesthetics before going live.

The API keys associated with a checkout experience are used to manage associated purchases as well through our purchase API collection.
