Products & Shop: sell without building a store from scratch.

At its core, Pickerbay empowers merchants to create their own online storefronts, list both products and services, and share payment links or hosted checkout pages with customers anywhere in the world. Whether selling digital goods, physical items, or professional services, users can manage everything from one centralized dashboard.

Create products with images and descriptions, organize them in categories, and publish a clean storefront. Pair your store with payment links and forms for custom pricing and one-off payments.

FAQ

Clear answers for custody posture, wallet locks, real-time checks, and payout customization.

Do you hold customer crypto funds?

The concept supports a non-custodial approach: crypto is tracked by on-chain balance and confirmations, plus wallet reservation and expiry release, rather than holding funds in custody accounts.

How do payment links and forms work?

Links and forms are merchant-owned (user_id + merchant_slug). Public URLs follow /pay/{merchant}/{slug} and /form/{merchant}/{slug}, keeping checkout consistent for customers.

What does “real-time crypto balance check” mean?

The checkout continuously checks the receiving address for incoming funds and updates status in real time. After funds are detected, confirmations are tracked until the payment is confirmed.

How do merchants customize payouts?

Merchants can set payout destinations and rules (per business) through the dashboard. This keeps operations flexible while staying provider-aware across Paystack, Flutterwave, Stripe, and PayPal.

Can admin update gateway settings without editing .env?

Yes. Store encrypted gateway settings in a DB singleton and override runtime config in your app boot logic, with .env remaining as a fallback.
