Beeketing

Beeketing began as a Vietnam-founded e-commerce marketing startup (backed by 500 Global) that built conversion-optimization apps for Shopify and other online stores, and evolved into OpenCommerce Group — the operator of ShopBase, a cross-border commerce platform serving 100,000+ merchants across 195 countries alongside PrintBase and PlusBase. The developer surface is the ShopBase Developer Platform: a Shopify-style REST Admin API (plus a GraphQL Admin API) for building public and private apps, themes, and payment gateways. It is secured with OAuth 2.0 authorization-code flow (public apps) or HTTP Basic auth (private apps), scoped with granular access scopes, and supports webhooks, leaky-bucket rate limiting, an app/theme store, and a Storefront SDK. A machine-readable contract is published: a Swagger 2.0 document of 97 paths, 153 operations and 268 definitions, served at https://api-doc.shopbase.com/public-swagger.json and rendered with ReDoc.

Beeketing publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network: ShopBase Admin API. Tagged areas include Company, E-commerce, Cross-border Commerce, Marketing, and Shopify Apps.

The Beeketing catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.

Beeketing’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, pricing, signup flow, and 29 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Payments regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/.
