Create a session for CVC only

Full sample integration

You can see an example of the session generation here.

Set your views

When you create your checkout form, you must add the views that your customers use to enter their card details and set unique identifiers for each of them.

As part of our SDK, we provide a UI Component dedicated to capturing your customer's card details to minimize your exposure to PCI Data.

You must use this component if you want to qualify for the lowest level of PCI compliance (SAQ-A).

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
              android:layout_width="match_parent"
              android:layout_height="match_parent" >

    <!-- layout style attributes omitted -->
    <AccessCheckoutEditText android:id="@+id/cvc" />

    <!-- layout style attributes omitted -->
    <Button android:id="@+id/submit_button" />

</LinearLayout>

Reference your views

You must now reference your view configurations. Use the same unique view identifiers as above.

Here's an example of how you would reference your view configurations.

  1. Kotlin
  2. Java
package com.worldpay.access.checkout.sample.code

// android library imports omitted

class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)

        val cvcAccessCheckoutView: AccessCheckoutEditText = findViewById<AccessCheckoutEditText>(R.id.card_flow_text_cvc)
        val submit = findViewById<Button>(R.id.submit_button)
    }

}

Validate CVC details

You can optionally validate your customer's CVC. You can find instructions here.

Create a CVC session

Implementing callbacks

The SDK retrieves the customers card details from the UI Components. The SDK then creates the session and invokes a callback to the implementation class of the SessionResponseListener interface.

You must create a class that implements our SessionResponseListener interface.

Your implementation receives notifications once the session request is complete.

You get the session as a Map<SessionType, String> or the exception as a AccessCheckoutException in the case of an error.

Here is an example implementation of the SessionResponseListener interface.

  1. Kotlin
  2. Java
package com.worldpay.access.checkout.sample.code

import com.worldpay.access.checkout.client.api.exception.AccessCheckoutException
import com.worldpay.access.checkout.client.session.listener.SessionResponseListener
import com.worldpay.access.checkout.client.session.model.SessionType

class MySessionResponseListener: SessionResponseListener {

    override fun onSuccess(sessionResponseMap: Map<SessionType, String>) {
        //TODO: handle the session response here
    }

    override fun onError(error: AccessCheckoutException) {
        //TODO: handle the exception here
    }

}

Initialize the AccessCheckoutClient

You must now initialize the AccessCheckoutClient using the AccessCheckoutClientBuilder.

To do this, you must provide your baseUrl, checkoutId and other parameters. See the table below for more information.

Here's an example of how you would initialize the SDK with the mandatory parameters and configurations.

  1. Kotlin
  2. Java
package com.worldpay.access.checkout.sample.code

// android library imports omitted

import com.worldpay.access.checkout.client.session.AccessCheckoutClientBuilder
import com.worldpay.access.checkout.client.session.AccessCheckoutClient
import com.worldpay.access.checkout.client.session.model.SessionType

class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {

    private val baseUrl = "TARGET_BASE_URL"
    private val checkoutId = "YOUR_CHECKOUT_ID"

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)

        // reference views code ommited

        val sessionResponseListener = MySessionResponseListener()

        val accessCheckoutClient = AccessCheckoutClientBuilder()
                .baseUrl(baseUrl)
                .checkoutId(checkoutId)
                .context(this)
                .sessionResponseListener(sessionResponseListener)
                .lifecycleOwner(this)
                .build()
    }

}
Important

When using the SDK with AndroidX Lifecycle 2.3.0 and above, the call to build() must be done on the main UI thread. This is due to changes to the LifecycleRegistry class used by the SDK which now enforces this constraint.

Mandatory parameters

ParameterDescription
baseUrl
  • For testing use: https://try.access.worldpay.com/
  • For live use: https://access.worldpay.com/
checkoutIdYour unique checkout ID.
sessionResponseListenerThe callback listener that returns your customer's session.
contextAndroid Context
lifecycleAndroid LifecycleOwner

Generate CVC session

You must pass references to the UI Components as well as the SessionType.CVC enum to the generateSessions method on the AccessCheckoutClient instance.

Here's an example of what you should do when your customer clicks the submit button.

  1. Kotlin
  2. Java
package com.worldpay.access.checkout.sample.code

// android library imports omitted

import com.worldpay.access.checkout.client.session.model.CardDetails
import com.worldpay.access.checkout.client.session.model.SessionType

class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {

    // fields ommitted

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)

        val cvcAccessCheckoutView: AccessCheckoutEditText = findViewById<AccessCheckoutEditText>(R.id.card_flow_text_cvc)
        val submit = findViewById<Button>(R.id.submit_button)

        // AccessCheckoutClient creation code ommitted

        submit.setOnClickListener {
            val cardDetails = CardDetails.Builder()
                .cvc(cvcAccessCheckoutView)
                .build()

            accessCheckoutClient.generateSessions(cardDetails, listOf(SessionType.CVC))
        }
    }

}

Full code sample

Here's the full code sample of the steps above.

  1. Kotlin
  2. Java
package com.worldpay.access.checkout.sample.code

import android.os.Bundle
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity
import android.widget.Button
import com.worldpay.access.checkout.sample.code.R

import com.worldpay.access.checkout.client.session.AccessCheckoutClient
import com.worldpay.access.checkout.client.session.model.CardDetails
import com.worldpay.access.checkout.client.session.model.SessionType
import com.worldpay.access.checkout.ui.AccessCheckoutEditText

class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {

    private val baseUrl = "TARGET_BASE_URL"
    private val checkoutId = "YOUR_CHECKOUT_ID"

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)

        val cvcAccessCheckoutView: AccessCheckoutEditText = findViewById<AccessCheckoutEditText>(R.id.card_flow_text_cvc)
        val submit = findViewById<Button>(R.id.submit_button)

        val sessionResponseListener = MySessionResponseListener()

        val accessCheckoutClient = AccessCheckoutClientBuilder()
                .baseUrl(baseUrl)
                .checkoutId(checkoutId)
                .context(this)
                .sessionResponseListener(sessionResponseListener)
                .lifecycleOwner(this)
                .build()

        submit.setOnClickListener {
            val cardDetails = CardDetails.Builder()
                .cvc(cvcAccessCheckoutView)
                .build()

            accessCheckoutClient.generateSessions(cardDetails, listOf(SessionType.CVC))
        }
    }

}
Caution

Do not validate the structure or length of the session resources. We follow HATEOS standard to allow us the flexibility to extend our APIs with non-breaking changes.

Important

The CVC session has a lifespan of 15 minutes and you can use it only once. If you do not take a payment within that time, you must create a new CVC session value.
