# Introduction

PayNow is still in beta and all features/implementations are subject to change. To stay up to date, join the official PayNow [discord](https://discord.gg/eU55zFdxvN).<br>

## Getting Started

There are two sets of routes for PayNow. The first set includes the management routes, which let you manage your store remotely (create products, customers, etc.). The second group includes the storefront routes, which allows your customers access the data for your store from your custom store implementation.

To get started with the management API, create a new API Key in your [dashboard](https://dashboard.paynow.gg/api-keys).

[How to use your API key](https://docs.paynow.gg/getting-started/types-of-authentication#api-key)

To get started with the storefront API, create a new customer token in your [dashboard](https://dashboard.paynow.gg/customers).

[How to use your Customer's token](https://docs.paynow.gg/getting-started/types-of-authentication#customer)
