Developers submit a product URL and buyer details through a single API call, and Rye handles the full transaction lifecycle — including product validation, shipping selection, tax calculation, automatic promo code discovery, and secure order submission. Merchants retain merchant-of-record status throughout, keeping chargeback liability, tax obligations, and compliance burden off the developer. The API abstracts the complexity of transacting across a fragmented e-commerce landscape through a minimal three-endpoint surface: create a checkout intent, poll for offer resolution, and confirm the order. Under the hood, Rye uses direct integrations for major platforms like Amazon (99% reliability, 5-second checkout latency) and Shopify (96% reliability, 20-second checkout latency), with intelligent browser automation as a fallback for any other merchant with a public product page. Payment data is fully tokenized — developers never handle raw card data, reducing PCI DSS compliance scope to the lightest self-assessment category. SDKs are available for JavaScript, Python, and cURL, and the API is backed by a 99.9% monthly uptime commitment. Rye Universal Checkout API is built for developers creating AI shopping agents, conversational commerce experiences, and automated purchasing workflows that need to transact across the open web — not just within walled-garden marketplaces or protocol-partnered merchants. By providing true any-merchant checkout coverage with built-in fraud mitigation, landed-cost resolution including real shipping and tax, and self-healing checkout flows that adapt when merchant pages change, Rye eliminates the need for teams to build and maintain per-merchant integrations. The result is a single integration that turns product discovery into completed transactions at scale.
