Payments
Payments for developers.
Charge, bill, and tax on one API. Built for founders, developers, eng managers, and the business that owns the money.
Lives in your code. One key. Versioned SDKs. Leave-able by design.
pnpm add @vortex-api/payments-sdkimport { createVortex, getMerchantAccountSettlements } from "@vortex-api/payments-sdk/2026-08";
// vb_test_ key = sandbox
const vortex = createVortex({
apiKey: process.env.VORTEX_API_KEY,
});
const { data } = await getMerchantAccountSettlements({
client: vortex,
path: { merchantAccountId: "mer_…" },
});

Products
Payments. Billing. Tax.
One money path. One key. All beta — self-serve sandbox.
Customers
Built for the people who ship money.
Founders, developers, engineering managers, and the business that owns the P&L.
Founders
Take payments under your brand without hiring a payments team. Sandbox today. Leave if you outgrow us.
Developers
One API key. OpenAPI. TypeScript, Python, Go. Charges, merchants, settlements as inspectable objects.
Engineering managers
Unblock the team with versioned SDKs and a migrate-away path. Settlement is readable — not a black box.
Business & ops
Your name on the statement. Gross − fees = net on the settlement object. Tax liability stays yours — we say so.
Why Vortex
PayFac infrastructure you can actually ship on.
Payments, billing, and tax on one money path — beta, self-serve.
One money path
Charge, subscribe, and quote tax with the same key. No bolt-on afterthoughts.
Your brand on the statement
You are the face of the payment. Merchants and customers see you — not a generic processor label.
Settlement you can open
Gross, fees, net. Sandbox examples match the objects your finance team will read later.
Designed to leave
Versioned SDKs and docs that include migrate-away. We sell trust by not locking the door.
What you get
From sandbox key to money moving.
Minutes to a key
Open the dashboard, copy a vb_test_ key, call the API. No sales call required for sandbox.
173 operations
OpenAPI surface for charges, merchants, settlements, webhooks, and more — not a toy demo API.
Three SDKs
TypeScript, Python, and Go. Same key semantics. Same objects.
Local webhook forward
Listen on localhost. Signed events into your app while you build.
