Onboarding Your First Partner in Just 30 Days
This isn’t another glossy whitepaper. It’s a hands-on, code-ready playbook that shows you exactly how to go from API concept to onboarding your first partner - in just 30 days.
Practical. Hands-On. Written for Developers.
Forget 40-page PDFs full of buzzwords. This playbook is built for engineers who want to:
Expose their first API securely
Onboard a real partner fast
Distribute digital products at scale
Every section includes copy-and-paste code, configs, and guardrails - so you can skip the fluff and start building.
What you’ll actually get inside:
-
Step-by-step weekly plan - from Gateway setup to full partner onboarding in 30 days
-
Real-world configs & code - AWS CLI, Lambda authorizer skeletons, NGINX mTLS snippets, OAuth flows
-
Reference architecture - clear diagrams showing how trust, access, and APIs fit together
-
Checklists & guardrails - avoid the pitfalls teams hit in real implementations
-
Operational playbook - logging, dashboards, credential rotation, and partner handoff docs
-
Negative test cases - so you can validate that your setup really works under stress
This isn’t theory. It’s the same practical process we’ve used with fintechs, issuers, and regulated banks - distilled into a guide you can copy, adapt, and deploy.
