Android SDK

Create your own uniquely styled and branded checkout form by integrating our SDK into your native app.

Note

Make yourself familiar with our API Principles to ensure a resilient integration.

How does it work?

We are securing your customer's payment details by generating sessions. You can then create a token with the card details and optionally use the CVC to take a payment.

What is a session?

A session is a unique identifier for your customer's payment details, generated by the SDK.

Get our SDK

To get our SDK, include the Gradle, Maven or Local AAR library configuration below.

implementation 'com.worldpay.access:access-checkout-android:2.6.0'

Local AAR library

If you're using the Local AAR library to get the SDK, copy the library file into your app/libs folder. Then add the flatDir repo to the project level build.gradle using the code in the Local AAR library example above.

You must also add the example below to your app-level dependency list:

implementation (name:'access-checkout-android', ext:'aar')
implementation "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib:1.3.31"

And here's a link to our Access Checkout Android SDK GitHub Repo

What to do next
