Whop is a marketplace and commerce platform for selling digital products, memberships, and access to online communities, courses, software, and other creator offerings. Sellers ("companies") list products (access passes) with pricing plans, take payments, and manage member access - often gating Discord or Telegram communities, apps, and content. Whop exposes a public developer platform: a current REST API (v1) at api.whop.com/api/v1 and a GraphQL API at api.whop.com/public-graphql, covering memberships, products, plans, payments, users, companies, checkout, transfers/payouts, webhooks, and more, plus an app framework, JavaScript/Python/Ruby SDKs, OAuth, and a realtime WebSocket for apps. Whop is free to start and monetizes through transaction fees rather than a subscription for API access.
