Coda Payments (trading as Coda, coda.co) is a Singapore-headquartered global Merchant of Record and monetization platform for digital content publishers, game studios and app developers. Its Codapay API lets partners accept 300+ local and global payment methods — cards, e-wallets, direct carrier billing, bank transfer, over-the-counter and vouchers — across 65+ countries and 60 currencies through a single integration, with Coda taking on Merchant of Record responsibility for tax, regulatory compliance, fraud and chargebacks. The developer surface spans the Codapay Hosted Payment Page API (v1.0/v2.0), a Direct Card API for server-to-server card charges with 3DS, hosted client-side components (CodaCard and CodaComponent JS SDKs), a Unity in-app payments SDK, a Refund API, a Payout API for cross-border disbursement, and the Codashop / Coda Webstore fulfillment APIs (validation, top-up, user sync) that publishers implement so Coda can deliver purchased items into their games.
