Universal Payment Backend - Accept payments with Stripe, PayPal, Authorize.net, and more
Optional capabilities you enable per instance—JSON APIs for memberships and products, plus Bridge Pages and Bridge Embeds so you can ship checkout and account flows with almost no custom frontend.
Tiers, organization and project memberships, feature checks, cancellations, and admin analytics and tier management—all under /bridge-payment/memberships and /bridge-payment/admin/memberships.
Public product listing when PRODUCT_LISTING_ENABLED is on—catalog-style access alongside your payment and subscription flows.
Server-rendered UI at /pages/* (not under /bridge-payment): pay links, login, customer portal, subscriptions, cards, addresses, billing history. Turn on PAGES_ENABLED and share URLs—no separate frontend required for many Flowless-backed flows.
Iframe-ready widgets at /embed/* with EMBED_ENABLED: pay, login, compact portal, subscriptions, payment methods, pay button, payment history—drop into any site and keep governance on your Bridge host.
Independent toggles
PAGES_ENABLED and EMBED_ENABLED are separate: you can run pages only, embeds only, both, or neither—see Module Hub & extensions.
Bridge Payments provides official client libraries that make integration incredibly simple:
🚀 No Backend Required for Basic Payments
These client libraries connect directly to Bridge Payments - no custom backend needed! Just install the package, configure your Bridge Payments URL, and start accepting payments.
Want to add custom business logic? You can easily integrate Flowfull (custom backend framework) alongside Bridge Payments.
