Paddle PHP SDK

Paddle Billing is a complete digital product sales and subscription management platform, designed for modern software businesses. It helps you increase your revenue, retain customers, and scale your operations.

This is a PHP SDK that you can use to integrate Paddle Billing with applications written in PHP.

For working with Paddle in your frontend, use Paddle.js. You can open checkouts, securely collect payment information, build pricing pages, and integrate with Paddle Retain.

Important: This package works with Paddle Billing. It does not support Paddle Classic. To work with Paddle Classic, see: Paddle Classic API reference

Requirements

PHP 8.1 and later.

Composer

You can install the bindings via Composer. Run the following command:

composer require paddlehq/paddle-php-sdk

To use the bindings, use Composer's autoload:

require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

Usage

To authenticate, you'll need an API key. You can create and manage API keys in Paddle > Developer tools > Authentication.

Pass your API key while initializing a new Paddle client.

use Paddle\SDK\Client;

$paddle = new Client('API_KEY');

You can also pass an environment to work with the sandbox:

use Paddle\SDK\Client;
use Paddle\SDK\Environment;
use Paddle\SDK\Options;

$paddle = new Client(
    apiKey: 'API_KEY',
    options: new Options(Environment::SANDBOX),
);

Keep in mind that API keys are separate for your sandbox and live accounts, so you'll need to generate keys for each environment.

Examples

List entities

You can list supported entities with the list function in the resource. It returns an iterator to help when working with multiple pages.

use Paddle\SDK\Client;

$paddle = new Client('API_KEY');

$products = $paddle->products->list();

// List returns an iterable, so pagination is handled automatically.
foreach ($products as $product) {
    echo $product->id;
}

Create an entity

You can create a supported entity with the create function in the resource. It accepts the resource's corresponding Create operation e.g. CreateProduct. The created entity is returned.

use Paddle\SDK\Client;
use Paddle\SDK\Entities\Shared\TaxCategory;
use Paddle\SDK\Resources\Products\Operations\CreateProduct;

$paddle = new Client('API_KEY');

$product = $paddle->products->create(
    new CreateProduct(
        name: 'ChatApp Education',
        taxCategory: TaxCategory::Standard(),
    ),
);

Update an entity

You can update a supported entity with the update function in the resource. It accepts the id of the entity to update and the corresponding Update operation e.g. UpdateProduct. The updated entity is returned.

use Paddle\SDK\Client;
use Paddle\SDK\Resources\Products\Operations\UpdateProduct;

$paddle = new Client('API_KEY');

$operation = new UpdateProduct(
    name: 'ChatApp Professional'
);

$product = $paddle->products->update('id', $operation);

Where operations require more than one id, the update function accepts multiple arguments. For example, to update an address for a customer, pass the customerId and the addressId:

$address = $paddle->addresses->update(
    'customer_id',
    'address_id',
    $operation,
);

Get an entity

You can get an entity with the get function in the resource. It accepts the id of the entity to get. The entity is returned.

use Paddle\SDK\Client;

$paddle = new Client('API_KEY');

$product = $paddle->products->get('id');

Resources

Webhook signature verification

The SDK includes a helper class to verify webhook signatures sent by Notifications from Paddle.

use Paddle\SDK\Notifications\Secret;
use Paddle\SDK\Notifications\Verifier;

(new Verifier())->verify(
    $request,
    new Secret('WEBHOOK_SECRET_KEY')
);
