Integration Guide

Accept ADA Payments in 5 Minutes

selfdriven.money/pay is a non-custodial Cardano payment gateway secured by KERI cryptographic identity. Payments go directly to your wallet — no intermediary holds your funds.

1

Get your API key

Generate a key from the API Keys page. Each key is bound to your KERI AID via a delegated inception event.

2

Create a payment

POST to /v1/payments with the amount, currency, and optional metadata. You'll receive a checkout URL and receiving address.

3

Redirect or embed

Send customers to the checkout URL, embed the payment button on your site, or build a custom flow using the address + QR code.

4

Listen for webhooks

Configure a webhook endpoint to receive payment.confirmed events. Each event includes a KERI interaction event for cryptographic auditability.

5

Get paid

ADA arrives directly in your wallet. No custody. No counterparty risk. Full KERI audit trail on every transaction.

Supported Tokens

Native ADA, plus any Cardano native token. Fiat conversion available for USD, AUD, EUR, GBP at settlement via real-time oracle pricing.

KERI Identity Layer

Every payment event is anchored as a KERI interaction event (ixn) in your Key Event Log. This provides cryptographic proof of every payment created, received, and confirmed — without relying on any third-party attestation.

Merchant Settings

Auto-convert to AUD

Automatically convert received ADA to Australian Dollars at settlement

Email Notifications

Receive email for each confirmed payment

KERI Event Witnessing

Broadcast payment events to 3 KERI witness nodes (2-of-3 threshold)

Native Token Support

Accept Cardano native tokens in addition to ADA

Staking on Receipt

Automatically delegate received ADA to your preferred stake pool

Test Mode

Use Cardano Preview testnet for development

Payout Wallet
