The Dispatch API enables developers to create a fully customized online ordering experience while retaining the full power of all Cents’ tools.With the Dispatch API, you can apply your own fonts, colors, terminology, and architecture to the online ordering flow—ensuring the customer experience aligns perfectly with your brand—while orders continue to flow seamlessly through the rest of the Cents ecosystem.Commonly, we’ve seen customers use Dispatch API to:
Build their own store routing logic
Customize how pricing is displayed and communicated
The Dispatch API is a RESTful API, allowing you to interact with it using any programming language that supports HTTP requests.
This API is rapidly expanding and changing and may be subject to sudden
breaking changes. Keep in touch with the team at
admin@trycents.com.
