The Marketplace API is in a private beta. It answers only for accounts Investorlift has enabled. Access says how to ask for one. A route shape on these pages can change before the beta ends. The changelog records every change.
The Marketplace API answers only for accounts Investorlift has enabled. This page says who can ask, how to ask, what a client is, and what the beta costs.

​
Who can ask

You need an Investorlift account on Mogul, the account you use on the marketplace. A seller’s account is a member of an organization with the seller designation. A buyer’s account carries the buyer designation. One account can hold both, and one token then reaches both sides.

​
How to ask

1

Send one email

Write to support@investorlift.com with the subject “Marketplace API access”. Name the account email. For a seller, name the organization too.
2

Investorlift enables the account

A release flag at the gateway controls which accounts the API answers for. Investorlift sets it for your account and tells you by email. Until then, every route answers 403 not_enabled for the account.
3

Sign in and accept the terms

Start the OAuth flow from your client. Sign in at the issuer, https://mogul.investorlift.com/api/auth, with your Investorlift account. The consent page lists each requested scope in one sentence. It also carries the Marketplace API Terms checkbox. A seller accepts the terms for the organization. A buyer accepts them for the person.Authentication has the flow. Terms has the text. A token minted before the terms are on file answers 403 terms_required.

​
Personal client or registered application

Every developer starts with a personal client. A registered application is for a product that serves many organizations. Every scope is available to both kinds. The role rule alone limits webhooks:manage and contacts:read to an owner or an admin of the organization. Trust and limits has the caps. To ask for a review, send these six items to the same address with the same subject:
  • a named company
  • a privacy policy
  • HTTPS redirect URIs
  • the scopes you ask for, and why
  • how you keep one customer’s data apart from another’s
  • a security contact
Investorlift aims to answer within 10 business days.

​
What the beta costs

  • Sellers: the organization’s Mogul plan includes the API. A publish through the API spends the same credits as a publish in the app. No route charges per request.
  • Buyers: free with a verified account. The caps of your trust tier are the bound, not a price.
  • No God Mode credits. The God Mode meter stays with God Mode, and no marketplace route charges a credit.
The packaging and the figures can change before the beta ends. The changelog records a change.

​
The sandbox

Investorlift plans a sandbox, and none is available yet. Every call in the beta reaches production data for the signed-in account. A published deal is live on Mogul, a submitted offer reaches a real seller, and a publish spends real credits. GET /me carries environment, which reads production on the live host. Keep a test to drafts until you mean to publish. A draft holds no property slot and costs nothing.
