Hi There,
I have a few questions on an iOS Etsy integration app I am planning which will add significant value to a buyers experience for certain products. The App will work as follows:
- It will be an iOS App downloaded from the App store.
- I will have a page on the App that takes an input from the user.
- Based on this input I would like have another page on my app that displays certain Etsy stores and modifies the contents on the store based on the input from the user.
- The user would then make a purchase in that store after making the decisions based on input from initial page and my app should charge a service fee.
My Questions Are:
- How do I control charging a service fee for the service my integration App provides? Is there any way to add a separate payment section to the store using the Etsy APIs so I can extract the service fee that way? In other words the seller would still have their banking information in the store and take the price of the product that way, meanwhile I would also add my banking information on the fly and take the service fee this way so it is a seamless experience for the user.
- If I make alterations to their store, are those changes only implemented in my "instance" of the store inside my app or does it actually alter the sellers Etsy store even if that store is visited outside my App, say over a web browser for example?
Thank You
