Kartra

Kartra is an all-in-one online business platform operated by Kartra, Inc. of Las Vegas, Nevada, that bundles landing pages and funnels, email marketing with automation sequences, checkouts and recurring billing, membership sites and courses, video hosting, calendars and booking, helpdesks, affiliate management and lead scoring into a single subscription. Its developer surface is three distinct things: an inbound API that is a single form-encoded POST endpoint at https://app.kartra.com/api driven by 29 documented `cmd` values and scoped to exactly one lead per call; an outbound API that POSTs 24 JSON lead and commerce events to URLs configured in the account; and an IPN system that POSTs six payment-lifecycle notifications as flat form variables. Kartra publishes no OpenAPI, no SDK in any language, no signed webhooks and no idempotency contract, and it returns HTTP 200 for every outcome including authentication failure — the numeric `type` field in the response body is the real error signal.

Kartra publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Marketing Automation, Email Marketing, CRM, and Contacts.

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

Kartra’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, pricing, signup flow, and 23 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/. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/kartra: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you? Prioritized profiling — $2,500 →

  description: Kartra's inbound developer API. One endpoint, POST only, form-encoded, with the operation selected by `actions[].cmd`.
    Twenty-nine documented commands cover leads, tags, lists, automation sequences, custom fields, lead scoring, pages, calendar
    bookings, payment transactions and recurring subscriptions. Every call carries three credentials in the body — the developer's
    `app_id` plus the end user's `api_key` and `api_password` — and acts on exactly one lead. Rate limited to 20 calls per
    second per App.

x-vouch-count: 2
x-pointer-omissions:
  note: Pointers deliberately NOT emitted, each backed by a probe or a search that found nothing. Recorded so a later pass
    does not re-litigate them.
  omitted:
  - type: OpenAPI
    reason: No OpenAPI, Swagger, GraphQL or AsyncAPI document found on kartra.com, app.kartra.com, api.kartra.com or support.kartra.com
      (probed 2026-08-12).
  - type: SDKs
    reason: No first-party client library on npm, PyPI, RubyGems, Packagist or crates.io. Kartra ships PHP cURL snippets,
      not an SDK. See packages/kartra-packages.yml.
  - type: Idempotency
    reason: Kartra documents no idempotency key, dedupe window or safe-retry contract. See conventions/kartra-conventions.yml.
  - type: Deprecation
    reason: No deprecation policy, no advance-notice window, no RFC 8594 Sunset/Deprecation headers. Removals are announced
      only after they ship.
  - type: Security
    reason: No vulnerability disclosure policy, no bug bounty, no security@ address. See security/kartra-vulnerability-disclosure.yml.
  - type: WellKnown
    reason: No /.well-known document served by Kartra — 404 on kartra.com, 403 on app/api hosts. The one 200 is Intercom's
      security.txt on the vendor-hosted help centre and is not Kartra's. See well-known/kartra-well-known.yml.
  - type: SecurityTxt
    reason: Same as WellKnown — the only security.txt reachable is Intercom's, canonicalised to app.intercom.com.
  - type: AgentCard
    reason: /.well-known/agent-card.json and /.well-known/agent.json probed on all four hosts; 404 or 403 everywhere. Nothing
      written, per the search-only rule.
  - type: GitHubOrganization
    reason: github.com/kartra does not exist (GitHub API 404). Kartra publishes no source.
  - type: Postman
    reason: No Kartra-published public Postman collection or workspace found.
  - type: Roadmap
    reason: No public roadmap; kartra.com/roadmap/ returns 404.
  - type: TrustCenter
    reason: trust.kartra.com 307s to app.kartra.com/dashboard via the wildcard subdomain catch-all; no trust centre exists.
  - type: CLI
    reason: No first-party CLI.
