I would like to know if Square has a way for my company to develop a solution that would automatically fulfill an order of a digital item sold by another company at a retail location.
Here is the scenario we would like to create if possible.
There are 2 businesses involved.
- Business A is a software development company.
- Business B is an event center location that already uses Square to sell physical products and admission to their location.
A patron arrives at Business B, and along with paying for admission, they also purchase a digital item that Business B is selling, but Business A is fulfilling.
When this item is purchased, Business A's backend API is notified, and asked to fulfill the order. To fulfill the order, the API generates a unique code, and sends it to a phone number or email provided by buyer at time of purchase to Business B.
This code is then used by the patron to unlock content within a mobile app created by Business A.
...
So to put it another way, using tools provided by Square, is there a way for one business to sell an item at a retail location, that will by automatically fulfilled by another company in a digital manner?
