Additional APIs

IP Commerce not only provides core integration tools, but additional APIs that add value to the commerce workflow. These tools, when used in conjunction with an integration API, enable the creation of powerful, workflow-oriented solutions.

Transaction Management Service API - Data Services

The Transaction Management Service eliminates the need for your application to store data locally by providing access to merchant transaction data for transaction reporting purposes, as well as for processing subsequent transactions, such as incremental authorizations, settlement, etc. Now, you can leverage this data service to create value-added workflows within your applications - getting them to market quickly while providing additional value for your customers.

SSO APIs for Federated Identity

Federated identity enables users of one domain to securely access data or systems of another domain seamlessly and without the need for completely redundant user administration. Using the IP Commerce SSO APIs for Federated Identity, application developers and service providers are enabled to use managed Federated Identity services (in the cloud) and provide integrated solutions, which their customers highly value. These APIs provide Single Sign-On for applications and services across multiple parties and leverage the governance power of Commerce Business Rules through claims management, thereby delivering full federation capabilities through a single, low-cost integration.
