Payments

Crypto payments on Solana work through several channels: QR codes for mobile wallets, direct browser wallet integration with Phantom, Backpack, and Solflare, and recurring subscriptions for ongoing access. Configure your wallet and accepted tokens in the dashboard, and the SDK takes care of the payment flow from there.

Setup

Section titled “Setup”
  1. Go to the Tribe dashboard
  2. Open your site’s Settings → Payments
  3. Enter your wallet address, the Solana wallet where payments will land
  4. Add accepted tokens like SOL, USDC, or any SPL token you want to support
  5. Enable payments

Check payment configuration

Section titled “Check payment configuration”

Before presenting payment options to users, confirm what’s been configured:

import { Tribe } from "@tribecloud/sdk";


const config = await tribe.getPaymentConfig();
// config.paymentsEnabled — whether payments are enabled
// config.paymentWalletAddress — your receiving wallet
// config.acceptedTokens — [{ mint, symbol, name, logoUrl, decimals }]
// config.p2pPaymentsEnabled — whether peer-to-peer payments are enabled

Peer-to-peer payments

Section titled “Peer-to-peer payments”

P2P payments let one user pay another directly while the site owner’s wallet collects a configurable fee. Enable P2P payments in your dashboard and include a recipientWallet in the payment options:

const payment = await tribe.getPaymentUrl({
  mint: "SOL",
  amount: "1.0",
  recipientWallet: "RecipientWalletAddressHere",
});
