Getting Started

members

Welcome to the KamioKash API suite! This guide is designed to help you take the first steps toward integrating our powerful Wallets and Rewards APIs into your applications. Follow these steps to set up your environment, understand our authentication process, and make your first API call.

Step 1: Initial Consultation and Customization Discussion

Before diving into the technical integration, we begin with a thorough discussion phase to understand your unique business needs, goals, and requirements. This step ensures that we can tailor our Wallets and Rewards APIs, along with any additional services such as branded marketplaces and tactical sites, to perfectly align with your vision.

To initiate this process

  • Contact Us: Reach out to our team via the Contact Form on our website. Provide a brief overview of your business and what you're looking to achieve with KamioKash.
  • Consultation Meeting: Our team will schedule a consultation meeting to dive deeper into your requirements, discuss potential strategies, and explore how KamioKash can support your objectives.
  • Custom Solution Design: Based on the consultation, our experts will design a custom solution tailored to your business. This includes selecting the right mix of features and services, such as creating a branded marketplace or developing tactical sites to engage your users. Campaign Onboarding: Once the solution design is finalized, we'll guide you through the onboarding process, detailing the steps to integrate our APIs and launch your campaign or service.

This initial phase is crucial for laying the foundation of a successful partnership, ensuring that the solutions we provide are bespoke, aligned with your business strategy, and capable of delivering the desired impact.

Step 2: Obtain Your API Keys

API keys are essential for authenticating your requests to the KamioKash APIs. Here's how to obtain them:

  • Log in to the requried KamioKash Admin platforms (Rewards or Wallets).
  • Navigate to the API keys section.
  • Click on "Create New Key" to generate your API Key and Secret pair. (the secret will only be displayed once!)
  • Keep your API Key and Secret secure; they are your access credentials for the KamioKash APIs.

Step 3: Set Up Your Development Environment

Before making your first API call, set up your development environment. Ensure you have the necessary software installed, such as a code editor, HTTP client (e.g., Postman or cURL), and any specific SDKs or libraries for your chosen programming language.

Step 4: Authenticate Your API Request

KamioKash APIs use API Key and Secret pairs for authentication. Include these credentials in the header of your API requests:

x-api-key: <Your_API_Key>
x-api-secret: <Your_API_Secret>

Ensure you replace <Your_API_Key> and <Your_API_Secret> with your actual API Key and Secret.

Step 5: Make Your First API Call

Let's start with a simple request to check the system status. This example uses cURL:

Copy code
curl -X GET 'https://api.kamiokash.com/system/status' \
-H 'x-api-key: <Your_API_Key>' \
-H 'x-api-secret: <Your_API_Secret>'

You should receive a response indicating the current system status and version, confirming that your setup is correct and you are ready to explore further.

Step 6: Basic Points assignment

This outlines a basic flow to create Members, Wallets and create EARN transactions so that points can be utilized through BURN transactions when redeeming at various partners.

Once a member and wallet are created a GET request can be used to retrieve details, a 404 will respond if the member or wallet is not found, and an error 400 will be the response if a duplicate is encountered.
