Get started

The GloCurrency API allows users to create transactions programmatically to send and receive money from various countries. This documentation provides a tutorial for the most common flows of using the API.

To use our API please contact our team, so they can generate API keys and set up your environment. This includes setting up a Skype group where you can ask technical questions, and they will also enable your API key so they can be used on our sandbox environment.

You need to contact us to get your API keys enabled before you can use our sandbox environment.

Once you are approved to use our system you'll be invited to our Skype group. Afterwards we prefer all technical questions to go though this Skype group instead of email or other contact methods, as we're monitoring this channel more often for partner requests.

Initially the keys will only be valid to be used on our sandbox environment at https://mw-sandbox.glocurrency.com/api/v1/customers/. This environment is a testing environment where you can test our API using test funds. The environment also provides a few tools to help testing, for more info please check the sandbox testing documentation.

Please check our main example, handling payments as a starting point.

Once development is finished against our API in the sandbox environment, please contact us again where our representatives will validate your implementation and if successful allow access to our production environment.

During this verification we will check that your implementation works as expected, and as a minimum supports the following functionalities:

• Authenticate to our site
• Create and fund transactions
• Check the state of transactions both via webhooks and manually
• Handling and cancelling failed transactions

You can find more information in our quick integration guide that contains the major points in making sure your implementation will be approved.
