NetLicensing Gateway
NetLicensing Gateway lets an eCommerce platform act as the license acquisition frontend. After a successful transaction, the platform calls the Gateway, and the Gateway creates the Customers, Licenses and all related data in NetLicensing, ready for later entitlement validation.
The Gateway is open source (Apache 2.0). A central instance runs at gateway.netlicensing.io, and you can run your own from the Docker image.
Is the Gateway the right tool? A Gateway connector exists only for the platforms listed below. For every other billing or commerce platform with webhooks, use the Billing and Commerce Platforms guides, which call the NetLicensing REST API directly.

Connectors
| Platform | Status | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| FastSpring (Contextual Commerce) | Available | Connector in the Gateway (Remote Server Request, first purchase). For new integrations, the FastSpring Licensing Integration works with webhooks and no Gateway |
Requests handled by integration guides
All open connector requests for the Gateway were closed, because the integration guides cover the platforms through webhooks and the REST API, without a Gateway connector: Recurly, SendOwl, 2Checkout, Authorize.Net, Chargebee, billwerk, Paddle, Stripe, Zuora, Gumroad and MoonClerk (through the Stripe Billing guide, since MoonClerk runs on Stripe).
Contribute a connector
New connectors are welcome as pull requests. See the contributing instructions: document the connector and cover your code with tests.
