The Members area is a very interesting way of delivering digital content, and it’s now the best option for Producers who are migrating their content to videos instead of the tradicional eBooks.
Striving for excellence and innovation, Hotmart has created Hotmart Club: a free members area created exclusively so you can share your digital content in a much simpler, dynamic manner. Also, Club has unique tools that will boost your sales without jeopardizing your students’ experience.
If you’re already using a members area, don’t worry!
Hotmart allows the integration of any member area with our platform.
For you product’s configuration to become even simpler, we carry out a series of native integrations. Therefore, you won’t need the help of a programmer, nor setting up an API.
Native integrations can be viewed in the menu Tools > Integrations.
If you haven’t found the integration you were looking for, you can set it up via API. In other words, a series of programming codes that allow the automated communication of web-based applications and platforms.
Warning: To carry out this integration, we recommend you ask a programmer for help, or that you have programming skills. OK?
API integrations can be carried out in two different ways:
Webhook: Whenever there is an update in our platform (such as a new purchase) the system will send the information to the application being used.
Hotmart Developers: The application you chose will frequently check our system for new updates.
