Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions and answers about integrating with Meld's crypto infrastructure.
Integration Options
Which integration method should I choose: Widget or White-Label API?
Widget Integration provides a complete UI that handles the entire transaction flow with minimal development effort. Simply redirect users to Meld's hosted interface.
White-Label API Integration requires building your own UI but offers complete customization control. You collect transaction details through your interface, then use Meld's APIs for payment processing.
Choose Widget for faster implementation, White-Label API for custom user experiences.

Should I use webhooks or polling for transaction status updates?
Use webhooks - they provide much lower latency and reduce infrastructure strain. Meld strongly recommends webhooks over polling.
Data and Storage
Do I need to store transaction data from Meld?
No, it's optional. Whether using Widget or White-Label API integration, you can:
- View transactions in the Meld dashboard
- Export data as CSV files from the dashboard
- Store locally if needed for your own analytics or record-keeping
Choose based on your business requirements for data retention and analysis.
