Rely Financials Python SDK

Server-side Python client for Rely Identity, organizations, branches and members, billing, wallet, transactions, inventory, and POS APIs. This package is released independently from the JavaScript SDK.

Install

pip install relyfinancials-sdk

Python 3.10 or newer is required.

For local development from this monorepo, install the package in editable mode:

python -m pip install -e ./packages/rely-sdk-python

Synchronous usage

from rely_sdk import Rely, RelyAPIError

with Rely(client_id="YOUR_CLIENT_ID", client_secret="YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET") as rely:
    try:
        checkout = rely.checkout.create({
            "amount": "25.00",  # decimal string, with up to two decimal places
            "currency": "USD",
            "destination_wallet_id": "wallet-id",
            "success_url": "https://merchant.example/paid",
            "cancel_url": "https://merchant.example/cancelled",
            "webhook_url": "https://merchant.example/webhooks/rely",
            "order_id": "order-123",
        })
        print(checkout)
    except RelyAPIError as exc:
        print(exc.status, exc.code, exc.request_id, str(exc))

Asynchronous usage

from rely_sdk import AsyncRely

async with AsyncRely(client_id="YOUR_CLIENT_ID", client_secret="YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET") as rely:
    checkout = await rely.checkout.create({
        "amount": "25.00",
        "currency": "USD",
        "destination_wallet_id": "wallet-id",
        "success_url": "https://merchant.example/paid",
        "cancel_url": "https://merchant.example/cancelled",
        "webhook_url": "https://merchant.example/webhooks/rely",
    })

AsyncRely uses HTTPX's asynchronous client. Every network operation returns an awaitable.

User and organization APIs

User and organization bearer tokens are passed explicitly to each method. Organization calls also take the organization ID first.

with Rely() as rely:
    organizations = rely.organizations.list(access_token)
    branches = rely.branches.list(organization_id, access_token)

    # Named API domains retain the HTTP verb and route from the Rely API.
    products = rely.inventory.list_products(
        organization_id,
        access_token,
        query={"page": 1, "page_size": 25},
    )
    sale = rely.pos.create_sale(
        organization_id,
        access_token,
        body={"items": [{"variant_id": "variant-id", "quantity": 1}]},
    )

The grouped namespaces include extensions, billing, wallet, transactions, user, inventory, and pos. For registry-backed methods, pass path values as keyword arguments, and pass query or JSON data as query= or body=. For example:

payment = rely.billing.payments.get_payment(access_token, payment_id="payment-id")
history = rely.wallet.get_history(access_token, query={"page": 1})
public_link = rely.billing.public.get_payment_link(token="public-token")

For a market POS scanner, send the decoded barcode as the code query value. The API resolves either a POS product or an inventory variant and returns the server-side price and stock details.

item = rely.pos.lookup_catalog(
    organization_id,
    access_token,
    query={"code": scanned_code, "branch_id": branch_id},
)

JSON payloads use the API's snake_case field names. Call signatures for specialized helpers such as checkout, organizations, branches, members, invitations, and SDK tokens are exposed directly on those clients.

Webhooks

Verify the signature against the exact raw request body before parsing or acting on an event. Do not parse and re-serialize the body before signature verification.

from rely_sdk import construct_webhook_event

event = construct_webhook_event(raw_body, signature, webhook_secret)
# Deduplicate on event["event_id"] before processing.

The standalone verify_webhook_signature(...) helper returns True for a valid HMAC-SHA256 signature. Invalid signatures and invalid JSON raise RelyWebhookSignatureError.

Configuration

Rely and AsyncRely accept client_id, client_secret, optional api_base_url and auth_base_url, timeout in seconds, max_retries, and retry_base in seconds. A single custom api_base_url is used for both gateways unless auth_base_url is also supplied. By default /v1/identity/* is routed to https://auth.relyfinancials.cloud; other API paths use https://api.relyfinancials.cloud.

Only GET requests are retried automatically (network errors, 429, and selected 5xx responses). Mutation calls are not retried to avoid duplicate charges or resource creation.

You can inject an existing httpx.Client or httpx.AsyncClient using http_client=. The SDK closes clients it creates itself; injected clients remain owned by the caller.

Publishing

The GitHub Actions workflow builds and publishes this directory when a tag matching rely-sdk-python-v* is pushed. For token-based publishing, create a PyPI API token scoped to relyfinancials-sdk, then save it as the PYPI_API_TOKEN secret in the GitHub pypi environment. The workflow reads it as a secret and never writes it to the repository.
