We have recently completed an interesting project involving integration of Shopatron’s Pro Customer API into TheSnowPros.org backend. According to Shopatron’s Pro Customer API guide: The Pro Customer API allows merchants to set up customer accounts for their Pro Stores. One Pro Customer application is used to send a manufacturer ID and login credentials to the server for validation.
