Sell gift cards & game top-ups via Instagram storefront — FazerCards integration guide

An Instagram storefront converts an audience you already built into buyers. Post catalog highlights, take orders via DM or link-in-bio checkout, and fulfil with FazerCards — gift cards (Amazon, PlayStation, Steam) being the most visual, giftable SKUs for a social feed.

Integration steps

  1. 1

    Open a FazerCards reseller account

    Register at reseller.fazercards.com and start the 5-day Gold trial. No card or KYC required.

  2. 2

    Retrieve your API key

    In the dashboard, open Settings → API and copy the X-Api-Key. Store it server-side only.

  3. 3

    Wire Instagram storefront to the FazerCards REST API

    Pull the catalog with GET /api/v2/catalog and place orders with POST /api/v2/order. Each order needs an Idempotency-Key (UUIDv4). Code-based SKUs return the code synchronously; ID top-ups complete via webhook.

  4. 4

    Set up webhooks for instant delivery

    Expose an HTTPS endpoint and register it in the dashboard. On order.completed, surface the code or confirmation in your channel. On order.failed, refund / retry per your business logic.

  5. 5

    Charge the customer and reconcile

    Take retail payment on your side (crypto, card, or local rails). Reconcile order-by-order against GET /api/v2/order/{id} and use GET /api/v2/balance for accounting.

What you get

  • Monetise an existing following with giftable digital products.
  • Crypto-native top-up of wholesale balance (USDT, Binance Pay).
  • Real-time webhooks for instant automated delivery.
  • 10,000+ SKUs in 1,000+ categories out of the box.

Watch out for

  • API key is a bearer secret — keep it server-side.
  • ID top-ups require the correct player identifier — validate before charging.
  • Customer-facing UX (refund flows, support) is your instagram storefront's responsibility, not FazerCards'.

Launch in 5 minutes — no card needed

5-day Gold trial: full API, full catalog.

FAQ

Do I need a paid plan to start?

No. The 5-day Gold trial gives the full API and full catalog access. Pick Bronze / Silver / Gold afterwards based on volume.

Which products sell best through a instagram storefront?

For social-media audiences and creators, the strongest sellers are Amazon, PlayStation gift cards and Steam wallet. The right mix depends on your audience, but these convert reliably in this channel.

Can I sell from Instagram without a separate website?

Yes — take orders via DM or a link-in-bio checkout page, fulfil through FazerCards, and deliver the code back in DM; a full website is optional, not required to start.

Is white-label possible?

Yes. The customer never sees FazerCards' brand — your channel owns the UX. See /white-label for details.
