Quickstart

Choose your preferred deployment method below to begin aggregating your revenue streams.

Managed Cloud (Fastest)
Self-Hosted (Docker Compose)

Follow these steps to set up Indic8 on our managed infrastructure:

Create an Account

Visit app.indic8.ing and sign in using GitHub or Google authentication.

Create a Workspace

Give your workspace a name (e.g. Acme Corp) and select your default reporting currency (USD, EUR, GBP, INR, or JPY).

Connect Your First Payment Gateway

Navigate to Settings > Integrations and select your primary provider (such as Stripe or Polar).Copy the generated Indic8 Webhook URL and paste it into your payment provider developer dashboard.

Trigger a Test Webhook

Send a test checkout.session.completed or order_created event from your provider dashboard. Indic8 will verify the cryptographic signature and display the event live in under 2 seconds.

Success: Your dashboard is now streaming real-time revenue telemetry.

Deploy the complete Indic8 stack on your own server using Docker Compose:

Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/indic8/indic8.git
cd indic8

Configure Environment Variables

Copy the example environment configuration file:

cp .env.example .env

Generate an encryption master key for your Sovereign Vault:

openssl rand -hex 32

Paste this value into .env under VAULT_ENCRYPTION_KEY.

Launch the Services

Start the Indic8 web app, Postgres database, and Redis queue:

docker compose up -d

Access the Dashboard

Open your browser and navigate to:

http://localhost:3000

Complete the initial admin setup and generate your workspace keys.

For detailed production deployment guides, see the Docker Compose Deployment guide.

Verifying Ingestion

Once your webhook endpoint is configured, you can verify data flow using the Indic8 CLI or by sending a sample event via cURL:

curl -X POST https://api.indic8.ing/v1/events/ingest \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ind_live_your_api_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "provider": "stripe",
    "event_type": "checkout.session.completed",
    "payload": {
      "id": "evt_test_12345",
      "amount": 4900,
      "currency": "usd",
      "customer_country": "US",
      "timestamp": "2026-09-13T12:00:00Z"
    }
  }'

Expected Response

  "status": "success",
  "event_id": "evt_norm_8f49a2",
  "normalized": {
    "amount_base": 49.00,
