The Henry API is designed to give developers all the tools they need to build in-app shopping experiences. It’s a powerful tool that enables developers to build applications that seamlessly integrate with the merchants in our network.Purchases originate from your app, the Henry Agent handles the entire checkout, and once the payment is processed, you receive a commission from the merchant.
Products are the central items in the Henry API. They represent the goods that your users can search for, view, and purchase. Each product has a unique ID and contains detailed information such as its name, price, description, and images.
An Order represents a user’s intention to purchase one or more products. When you create an order, you specify the products, quantities, and shipping details. The Henry API then handles the entire checkout process automatically.
To process orders, Henry needs a valid payment method. Our API allows you to securely collect and store payment details. We handle payment tokenization to ensure that sensitive information is never stored on your systems, maintaining PCI compliance.
Merchants are the online stores and retailers where products are sourced from. The Henry API integrates with a vast network of merchants, allowing your users to shop from their favorite brands without leaving your app.
A key feature of the Henry API is the ability for developers to monetize their applications. We have established affiliate partnerships with the merchants in our network.When a user makes a purchase through the Henry API in your app, the merchant pays you a commission through Henry, allowing you to earn revenue on every transaction that your app facilitates. This creates a powerful new revenue stream with no additional overhead.
