Quickstart Guide - API

The ShineOn API.

If you're a big store with a good handle on programming and development, then selling using our API might be a good option for you.

Before making a large tech investment, you may want to consider trying out CSV Ordering first. The sign up process for both API and CSV is mostly the same, so why not give it a go?

Selling via the API is only useful for businesses used to programming their own store and who have programmers or developers that can implement it.
