Take payments and still qualify for SAQ-A – the lowest PCI compliance level – with our Android SDK.

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

Read more about the Checkout SDK and the supported payment journeyshere.

Note: Make yourself familiar with ourAPI Principlesto ensure a resilient integration.

How does it work?

We are securing your customer's payment details by generating sessions. You can thencreate a tokenwith the card details and optionally use the CVC totake 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,Mavenor Local AAR library configuration below.

Copied!
implementation 'com.worldpay.access:access-checkout-android:2.3.0'
<dependency>
  <groupId>com.worldpay.access</groupId>
  <artifactId>access-checkout-android</artifactId>
  <version>2.3.0</version>
</dependency>
allprojects {
    repositories {
        //...
        flatDir {
            dirs 'libs'
        }
    }
}

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:
