As in, selling API keys? Not sure what you're asking for. Are you looking for a webshop that has API key sales as a default item type or something?

Yes, more like a SaaS. Maybe a solution that is tailored to selling API access. Generates a unique URL to the user, or API key, after they sign up for the API service.
