FWBox settings
Upstream server
Base URL only — no trailing path. FWBox appends /api/firmware, /api/stats itself.
Generate this in the firmware server's own /admin page. Leave blank if the server's key gate is off.
Connection test result
Not tested yet.
App API key
Lets the JEPFX desktop app (jepfx_patched_monochrome.py) identify itself to FWBox as first-party, so it skips the anti-bot browser puzzle real visitors have to solve. Copy this into the app's FWBOX_CLIENT_KEY constant.
Rotating immediately invalidates the old key — any app build still using it just falls back to solving the normal browser puzzle, it doesn't break.
Keep-alive (uptime pulse)
Render's free tier puts the FWBox server to sleep after ~15 minutes without traffic. This sends one tiny request to its /api/health every few minutes so it stays awake. It only ever touches that one path (which FWBox's anti-bot guard exempts), never sends your API key, and backs off for 30 minutes if it is ever blocked.

GCash / Card (PayMongo)
A third way to unlock a firmware, next to access codes and store credit: the visitor pays directly with QR Ph, GCash, card, Maya or GrabPay in pesos, and the download link is released automatically the moment PayMongo confirms the payment — no code, no account, nothing for you to click.
Only the methods your PayMongo account has activated will actually appear on the checkout page — QR Ph is on by default, but GCash/Card/Maya/GrabPay each need a verified business account and to be switched on under PayMongo Dashboard → Settings → Payment Methods.
What one firmware unlock costs a visitor, in whole pesos (e.g. 149 or 149.50). Change it any time — it applies to the next payment started, not ones already in progress.
From your PayMongo dashboard → Developers → API keys. Use sk_test_… to try it out risk-free, switch to sk_live_… when you're ready to take real payments. This key never leaves the server.
Access codes (one per firmware)
Search the catalogue, pick the exact package, then generate its code. A code unlocks that one package for one visitor and is burned the moment it is used.
