SamCart

SamCart is a checkout and e-commerce platform for selling digital products, courses, memberships, and physical goods directly to customers, built around a high-converting CheckoutOS checkout, one-click upsells, subscriptions, and a courses/members area. The SamCart Public API (v1) is a REST API at https://api.samcart.com/v1 that gives programmatic read access to a marketplace's orders, products, customers, subscriptions, charges, and refunds, plus write actions to cancel or schedule cancellation of subscriptions, refund charges, and update order custom fields. Authentication is via an sc-api API key header, and API access is provisioned by the SamCart Support team rather than fully self-serve.

SamCart publishes 6 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Charges API, Customers API, Orders API, and 3 more. Tagged areas include E-Commerce, Checkout, Payments, Subscription, and Digital Products.

SamCart’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, engineering blog, and 7 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/samcart: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you? Prioritized profiling — $2,500 →
