# Marketplace API

> Support peer-to-peer trading within a game or app. Works across both onchain and offchain inventory systems.

<b>How does the Proof of Play Marketplace work?</b>

Overview:

* Our APIs allow app developers to build an in-game marketplace and take a fee.
* Sellers can list items for sale from their inventory priced in USD.
* Buyers can purchase item listings via credit card or crypto.
* Purchased items are placed in the buyer’s inventory upon fulfillment.
* Sellers are paid out in USD stablecoins in their wallets upon settlement.
* Players can withdraw their balances into fiat across many supported payment methods.

<b>Why should you be interested as an app developer?</b>

* With just a simple integration, you can quickly stand up a marketplace that works with your existing databases and inventory systems.
* Your app doesn’t need any crypto or have plans to use it in the future. It’s only the marketplace payments that settle on a crypto network.
* You can generate additional revenue & increase LTVs.
* Most importantly, your users get the very best in-game marketplace UX and can participate in real-money, peer-to-peer trading.
