For developers

Developer onboarding is in private beta. The hosted dashboard and self-service signup land in the next milestone (Spec 4).

What it is

Lumen Credits is a hosted storefront for AI apps. You bring your AI provider API key and your PayPal merchant account. We host the website at <your-slug>.lumencredits.com, handle end-user sign-in, count usage, and process end-user payments straight into your PayPal — we never touch the money.

How it works

• You provide your own Google Gemini API key and PayPal merchant credentials.
• You configure pricing tiers and top-up packs for your app.
• Your end users sign in, subscribe, pay, and use the app at your-slug.lumencredits.com.
• You pay a small platform usage fee for the hosted infrastructure.
