Validate Purchases with Server-Side Webhooks
Merchants can now securely confirm completed purchases and trigger powerful post-purchase workflows—like granting access, sending emails, or updating analytics—in real time.
What’s new
We’ve introduced two key features to help merchants validate purchases securely:
- Webhooks that notify your server when a purchase is complete
- Enhanced client-side callbacks that include detailed purchase data
Why it matters
For high-value services—like generative AI or premium content—client-side validation isn’t enough. This release enables secure, server-side confirmation of purchases before access is granted, reducing fraud and protecting merchant resources.
What you can do with it
Server-side webhooks unlock a wide range of automation and security options:
- Secure Access Control — Grant access to content or services only after a verified purchase.
- Personalized Onboarding — Kick off welcome emails, setup flows, or user provisioning.
- Real-Time Analytics — Sync purchase data with internal dashboards or CRMs.
- Customer Support Workflows — Create support tickets or alerts when purchases happen.
- Loyalty & Rewards — Automatically assign points or trigger reward logic based on purchases.
How it works
- Enable webhooks from the new Webhooks tab in the Business Portal. We use Svix to deliver events like purchase.added, including key purchase metadata.
- Use the updated
onPurchaseCompletecallback in Tab.js to access purchase ID, user ID, and other validation data. - Webhooks also work in Test Mode, so you can safely build and test your integration.
This gives you end-to-end purchase security and the flexibility to build powerful merchant-side workflows. Want to see it in action? Reach out for a demo or setup support.
