Introduction
Owl Protocol, a web3 integration platform that simplifies blockchain development by providing APIs and Zapier integration for any EVM or Rollup. This allows developers to build blockchain applications without dealing with private keys, gas fees, or cryptocurrencies, enabling them to focus on the core aspects of their applications.
In this tutorial we will integrate automation of sending the NFTs directly to the users as soon as they complete payments using stripe , this would be made possible via zapier and owl protocol.
By combining Owl Protocol with Zapier and stripe payments, we will develop a seamless workflow that sends NFTs to the users upon sucessfull payments via stripe.
Steps
Create a Project in Owl Protocol Dashboard: Log in, set up your team, and create a new project.
Set up Your Collection: Add a custom network, configure network settings, and create your NFT collection.
Integrate Stripe and Owl protocol with Zapier: Create a new Zap, select Stripe payments as the trigger, configure NFT minting via Owl protocol in the actions, and set up the zap ⚡.
Test the Integration: Ensure everything works correctly and activate your Zap.
