description: 'Cratejoy is a subscription-box commerce platform and marketplace (a CRV and Y Combinator company) that lets
  independent creators launch, sell, and manage recurring subscription boxes and one-time products. It exposes two public
  REST APIs: a Merchant API (https://api.cratejoy.com/v1/) covering customers, orders, subscriptions, shipments, products,
  inventory, carts, transactions, and webhooks; and a front-end Store API for reading and writing customer-scoped data from
  a storefront theme. Resources are JSON, authenticated with HTTP Basic credentials, paginated, filterable with double-underscore
  operators, and rate-limited with Retry-After.'
