Introduction | Minting API
Using Crossmint's Minting API, you can create and deliver an NFT to a user in a single REST request. You pay per NFT with FIAT (charged by card), and can deliver them to anyone. Even if the receiver doesn't have any cryptocurrency or a crypto wallet.
How it Works
Under the hood, the Crossmint Minting API:
- Deploys an NFT smart contract (using one of the supported blockchains)
- Handles all cryptocurrency payments so you only need to pay in fiat with card or ACH
- Validates, uploads, and pins your NFT metadata and media assets (images, videos, 3d assets, etc) to decentralized permanent storage
- Mints the NFT
- Deposits the NFT in a user wallet by either:
- Sending NFT to an existing crypto wallet via their public key, or
- Sending the NFT to an email address (via a custodial wallet Crossmint creates on the user's behalf)
