What it does
Nexway combines a merchant-of-record service with tools for selling digital products and subscriptions. Its Nexway Center interface and API manage offers, carts, orders and delivery, including software keys or account access. Commercial terms use a quoted revenue-share arrangement.
Decide where the catalog lives
A standard catalog stores products and prices on Nexway, with variations, languages and currencies. The remote catalog route keeps that information on the seller's own server for one-time purchases. An API request supplies the product details and generates a purchase link, avoiding a second catalog to maintain.
Bundles can contain one-time products or subscriptions. Discounts can depend on the order total, selected products or customer group. Subscription tools add trials, renewal options and scheduled messages about a customer's status.
Deliver the purchase after payment
For stock-based software delivery, upload a batch of activation keys; Nexway assigns a key to a cart when payment is processed. For account-based access, a callback to your server triggers provisioning. The callback approach also covers subscription renewals, so the seller's system can extend paid access.
Nexway Center brings catalog editing, order monitoring, user rights and reports into a web interface. Discuss the revenue share and implementation scope with Nexway. Its offer limits support for early-stage microbusinesses, so that fit needs checking during the sales discussion.
