Use cases

Examples of how Tempest Touch and Tempest Pay can fit into products. Validate regulatory, accounting, custody, and customer-support requirements for your business before production use.

E-commerce checkout

Create a USD-priced charge from your backend, redirect to hosted_url, and fulfill only after a verified charge.paid webhook.

Invoices and B2B payments

Use references/metadata to map charges to invoices. Reconcile with charge retrieval and signed events; keep webhook processing idempotent.

Marketplaces and platforms

Collect payment status server-side and apply your own seller/order logic. Test carefully where platform fees, custody, and payout timing are involved.

Digital goods / access grants

Grant access after verified payment confirmation. Handle processing, partial, underpaid, expired, and late_payment states explicitly.

Custodial wallet operations

Use Tempest Touch for account-based balances, deposits, sends, and history across supported assets/networks shown in the app.

Developer sandbox

Start with test keys, simulate supported test flows, inspect webhook deliveries, and promote to live only after approval/operational readiness.
