About
=====
This is the GNU Taler merchant backend. It provides the logic that should run
at every GNU Taler merchant. The GNU Taler merchant is a RESTful backend that
can be used to setup orders and process payments. This component allows
merchants to receive payments without invading the customers' privacy. Of
course, this applies mostly for digital goods, as the merchant does not need
to know the customer's physical address.
A general-purpose merchant back-office single-page (HTML/JavaScript)
application is also included (alas, the source code for it is in another Git
repository).
This merchant backend must be combined with a merchant frontend, such as
an e-commerce application. You can find a WooCommerce plugin, a snack
machine integration (taler-mdb) and various demonstrator front-ends at
https://git.taler.net/.
