Resources

Use the same downloader backend through REST calls, embedded cards, widgets, and button integrations.

First request

GET

Replace VIDEO_ID and YOUR_API_KEY, run the request, then pass the returned id to /ajax/progress.php. At progress 1000, use download_url only when success is 1 or true; otherwise stop and show the error.

curl --get "https://p.savenow.to/ajax/download.php" \
  --data-urlencode "url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID" \
  --data "format=mp3" \
  --data "apikey=YOUR_API_KEY"

Button API

Embed a direct downloader button while keeping existing /api/button/ behavior available.

Card API

Use card and widget variants for richer downloader pages.

Migration guides

Move from loader.to embed URLs to the VDA public documentation and API key flow at /loader-to-button-api.

Feature details

Hosted embeds

Widget API

Drop a hosted downloader interface into a page when speed matters more than full UI control.

Card API

Use a larger framed downloader surface with simple query parameters.

Compact actions

Button API

Add a downloader button next to search results, video pages, or your own content.

Templates

Start from React or Laravel examples for Button, Card, and Widget API launches.

Important details

REST API remains the control path

Use REST when you need full control over polling, states, billing behavior, and error handling.

Templates are starter projects

Download the archive, add URL and ad parameters, then review branding and analytics before production.

Common questions

Where do examples run?

Use p.savenow.to for public API examples unless your dashboard shows a custom account hostname.

How do I add credit?

Open the dashboard, create a top-up payment, or redeem a coupon. Balance changes are shown in the account history.

Are old endpoints still supported?

Yes. The .php compatibility endpoints remain active for existing integrations and embedded clients.
