Build apps on top of CartDNA

Create apps that help merchants work faster, reduce payment friction, and make better decisions. CartDNA apps can support checkout flows, transaction visibility, payment operations, customer support, and reporting.

Apps merchants actually need

Checkout enhancement apps

Help merchants improve payment completion with better payment method routing, local method display, or pre-checkout validation.

Support and issue resolution apps

Build tools that help teams inspect payment attempts, failed transactions, refunds, and callback logs in one place.

Reporting and insights apps

Create dashboards for payment volume, approval rates, payment method usage, and regional performance.

Reconciliation and finance apps

Connect order data, payout logic, and transaction records so finance teams can work with cleaner reporting.

Design for speed, clarity, and trust

The best CartDNA apps solve real merchant problems. Keep setup simple. Show live payment status clearly. Use consistent order references. Store callback events safely. Make sure merchants can trace each payment from request to final status without switching between systems.
