vingd 0.1

Vingd API interface client.

Vingd enables users to pay with money or with time. Money goes directly to publishers and time is monetized indirectly through interaction with brands, content creation, loyalty, bringing new users, etc. As a result Vingd dramatically increases monetization while keeping reach. Vingd’s secret sauce are mathematical models that are adapting to each user in order to extract as much value as possible from their time.

We use vingds (think of it as “digital currency”, points, or credits) to express the value (“price”) of intangible goods (such as TV streams or newspaper articles), to reward users for their activity (time), or to authorize (“charge”) them access to digital goods.

Vingd API for Python

Vingd API enables you to register Vingd objects you’re selling, create Vingd purchase orders, verify and commit Vingd purchases. You can also reward users, either directly (in backend), or indirectly via Vingd vouchers. For detailed docs and demos, see docs.vingd.com.
