iGolder API Reference

Integrating iGolder to my website using Web Services

iGolder offers various API web services for automating repetitive operations, such as automating a gold payment, fetching your account balance, downloading your transaction history, or adding iGolder payments to your website using our Shopping Cart Interface.  We are just starting, as we plan to add web services to automate every iGolder operation.

 

Web services are widespread in the web development industry.  If you are unfamiliar with web services and you are serious doing business online, then we recommend you taking the time to learn about it.  For instance, with a few lines of code, you may fetch your best customer feedback comments and display them as testimonials on your website.

 

To get started, we invite you to try our simplest web service to fetch your account balance.  For your convenience, we have created a tool to test all our APIs.  Just download our Automation Test Tool and enable automation to your iGolder account and you will see your account balance in the XML format.
