Creating a crypto payments Shopify App

[jacobcantele]

Hello,

I'm interested in building a Shopify app that would allow the merchant to accept payments from a MetaMask.io user, so that the customer can pay for an item in cryptocurrency. With current Shopify APIs and endpoints, is something like this possible? If so, which APIs should be used in order to modify the payment flow in this way? I reviewed the docs, but couldn't determine which APIs would be used to modify the checkout journey in this way. Any help to point me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

Hi @jacobcantele 

The Payments Apps API will be available in Q3 2021. So you should wait.

Hello @jacobcantele  Did you build the app by chance? 

[jacobcantele]

we did not. The payments API wasn't available on the timeframe we needed. Is it available now?

Hello, 

Is this functionality / app now available for metamask.io integration? We are currently set up with payments. But also looking to be able to deliver the digital asset upon completion of the transaction so that we do not have to manually transfer. Thanks.

I am eager to have this integration too

Any luck with this development i am also interested in developing this app- We thought coingecko for realtime market valuation may be a good route aswell. Have you developed this? we have a few clients with thier own cryptocurency and they want to build shops.
