Bolt Financial

Bolt Financial, Inc. is an American commerce technology company that gives retailers a one-click, identity-powered checkout backed by a shopper account network, payments processing, tokenization and fraud protection. Merchants integrate Bolt either through platform plugins (Adobe Commerce/Magento, BigCommerce, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, Shopify, WooCommerce) or directly against a REST API surface that covers shopper accounts, order tokens, transaction authorize/capture/refund/void, subscriptions, product catalog, merchant statements, webhooks and a hosted card tokenizer. Bolt publishes OpenAPI 3.0 definitions for its Bolt API, Embeddable Checkout v1 and v3, and Tokenizer endpoints, ships first-party SDKs for TypeScript, Python, C#, Go, PHP, iOS/Swift, Android/Kotlin, React Native, Unity and Unreal, and maintains an explicit agent-facing surface: an llms.txt index, a hosted documentation MCP server and two published agent skills.

Bolt Financial publishes 4 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Bolt API, Bolt Embeddable Checkout v1 API, Bolt Embeddable Checkout v3 API, and 1 more. Tagged areas include Company, Payments, Checkout, eCommerce, and Fintech.

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