My use case is I am creating a web app that needs to have user purchasable digital goods, how can I integrate that, if possible, with Needle?
Is there a plugin/asset for this or is it not possible?
Hello, shitman027tm.
Needle Engine does not provide built-in payment integration for handling user purchases of digital goods directly. However, you can implement payment integration using external services such as PayPal, Stripe, or other payment gateways through your web app.
Hereβs a general approach to integrating payment processing with your Needle Engine web app:
-
Choose a Payment Gateway: Select a payment processor (e.g., Stripe, PayPal) that suits your needs.
-
Create Payment Handling Logic:
- Use their SDK or API in your application to create payment requests and handle callbacks on successful payments.
-
Implement Payment Flow:
- In your Needle Engine application, provide UI elements (like buttons) that interact with the payment gateway when the user wants to purchase digital goods.
- Capture necessary information during the checkout process.
-
Secure Data Handling:
- Ensure sensitive data (like payment details) is handled securely via HTTPS.
- Implement server-side validation for purchases to ensure the integrity of the purchase process.
-
Manage Purchases: Track purchased items either through a database or local storage, ensuring users have access to their digital goods.
For specific examples, consider looking into the following:
- Stripe Documentation: Stripe Integration
- PayPal Documentation: PayPal Integration
Since Needle Engine does allow flexibility in integrating third-party libraries, you can include payment SDKs in your project as needed.
If you have further specific questions about implementing this or need examples of code, feel free to ask!
