GOAT Flow

GOAT Flow is a technical service platform that provides payment infrastructure for merchants and developers. By using or integrating Checkout, QuickPay, and API Payments, merchants can improve how customers and AI agents purchase and pay for their products, services, and API access.

Your business defines what it sells and how it delivers. GOAT Flow provides payment integration, tracks transactions, and returns payment results so you can connect purchases to your order and fulfillment workflows.

How GOAT Flow Works

GOAT Flow payment and fulfillment processThree swimlanes show the responsibilities of the merchant, the customer or AI agent, and GOAT Flow. The merchant chooses Checkout, QuickPay, or API Payments, configures the business and integration, and provides a purchase or access entry point. The buyer chooses between the available Card and Crypto payment methods. The Card path completes payment through Stripe and GOAT Flow receives the result. The Crypto path transfers from a wallet and GOAT Flow verifies the on-chain payment. After confirmation, GOAT Flow updates the transaction status and returns the confirmed result. The merchant then delivers the product, service, or API access.

Card and Crypto are separate payment paths, available according to merchant configuration. GOAT Flow confirms the result before the merchant fulfills the purchase.
  1. Choose a solution. Select Checkout, QuickPay, or API Payments according to your business model and the purchasing or access flow you want to offer.
  2. Configure and integrate. Set up the products, services, or APIs and prices for that solution, configure available payment methods, and complete any required technical integration.
  3. Provide an entry point. Offer a checkout in your application, share a payment link, or expose a paid API endpoint.
  4. The buyer completes payment. Customers or AI agents follow the payment flow supported by your solution and merchant configuration.
  5. GOAT Flow confirms the result. GOAT Flow receives the payment result from the card provider or verifies the cryptocurrency payment, then updates the transaction status.
  6. Your business fulfills. Use the confirmed result to deliver the product or service, grant API access, or start the corresponding business workflow.

Payment Methods

Card Payments

Eligible merchants can offer card payments through Stripe. Stripe handles card payment processing; GOAT Flow receives the payment result and updates the transaction status for your business.

Cryptocurrency Payments

Customers and AI agents send cryptocurrency payments directly to your configured merchant wallet. GOAT Flow verifies the on-chain payment and updates the transaction status.
