For software platforms in the activity industry, payments are the most sensitive part of the product. Get them wrong and merchants churn. Get them right and they're a revenue engine that grows with every transaction the platform processes.
ActivityPay's embedded payments API gives ISVs the building blocks to embed, launch, and monetize payments without owning the regulatory, compliance, or fraud-monitoring infrastructure that comes with being a payment company.
The stack includes a flexible REST API, JavaScript SDK, iFrame and payment link drop-ins for fast time-to-launch, hosted invoicing, text-to-pay, card-present and virtual terminal support for operators that need in-person or call-center flows, surcharge and dual pricing tools, tokenization and secure vault for stored payment methods, and real-time reporting with payout tracking that merchants expect.
Unlike consumer-grade processors that compete with their software partners or treat them as a referral channel, ActivityPay is structured as partner-first. Revenue sharing, white-label options, optional co-selling sales support — the model is built around the ISV's growth, not just transaction volume.

Common Questions About Embedded Payments API
What can I build with ActivityPay's embedded payments API?+
ISVs can build fully custom payment experiences (REST API + JavaScript SDK), embed pre-built drop-ins (iFrame and payment links), and offer their merchants hosted invoicing, text-to-pay, card-present terminals, virtual terminal entry, recurring billing, surcharge programs, and tokenized stored payment methods — all backed by PCI-DSS Level 1 compliance and fraud monitoring.
Do I have to use ActivityPay branding?+
No. White-label options let the payments experience feel native to the partner platform. ISVs can also choose co-branded experiences depending on what makes sense for their merchants and brand strategy.
What is the revenue model?+
Partner-first revenue sharing — ISVs earn recurring revenue on every transaction processed through their platform. The exact terms depend on the partnership structure, but the model is designed so the ISV's growth and ActivityPay's growth are aligned.
