The payment process at Bolt is quite simple and consists of a few steps.
1

Initiating a payment

Unlike most payment platforms that allow you to create products and manage regional pricing, Bolt focuses exclusively on providing alternative payment methods for its merchants. Based on this principle, a transaction consists simply of:
  • A USD amount
  • A customer
  • A description specifying the nature of the payment.

Conversion

Converting the USD amount to a Robux amount is not quite simple, so we made a whole page about this. If you’d like to know more about this, feel free to take a look.
3

Payment created

Once the payment is made, merchants are provided with a simple way for them to let their customers pays, which are payment links, in those, the customer get prompted to fill their personal details (such as email, and name) and to pay the merchant once the customer is known.
4

Payment completion

Once the customer completed the payment, the status of the payment changes from ACTION to PENDING, and the payment completion flow is triggered.
