Summary

Pavlo Sidelov, Co-Founder of Cloud Wallet, introduces Cloud Wallet, an API designed for asset and inventory accounting, and facilitating closed-loop payments between connected devices, as showcased through a coffee vending machine example. The API, now available on RapidAPI, allows users to manage a fleet of coffee machines by assigning wallets to each device, enabling efficient inventory restocking and transaction management to prevent lost sales and excessive delivery costs. Through detailed steps, Sidelov explains how to set up projects, create customer records, manage wallets for various ingredients, and handle transactions for sales and restocking, illustrating the API's potential to improve operational efficiency in the vending business. The Cloud Wallet API is versatile, supporting not only inventory management but also loyalty programs, bonus point systems, internal P2P transfers, and Machine-to-Machine payments, inviting businesses to explore its capabilities on RapidAPI.
