# React Native 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 journeys [here](/products/checkout).

Note
Make yourself familiar with our [API principles](/products/reference/api-principles) to ensure a resilient integration.

Important
Please ensure you integrate the SDK as advised in our documentation or you might be subject to additional PCI compliance and won't meet the SAQ-A compliance level.

## How does it work?

We are securing your customer's payment details by creating a session. You can then either apply the session directly in the [Payments API](/products/payments/card-payment) or [create a token](/products/verified-tokens/create-verified-token) for use with our Modular APIs.

### What is a `session`?

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

## Prerequisites

The React Native SDK is compatible with the following:

- `react-native` version >= `0.70.0`
- `react` version >= `18.1`
- For iOS dependencies, `Cocoapods` support only.


## Get our SDK

1. Run the following command to install our SDK.


#### npm


```
npm install @worldpay/access-worldpay-checkout-react-native-sdk
```

#### yarn


```
yarn add @worldpay/access-worldpay-checkout-react-native-sdk
```

1. Add a dependency to the Android Bridge in the Android part of your application.
  1. Define in your `android/build.gradle` file a local maven Repo for the Android Bridge which is shipped with the SDK.
#### gradle

```
   allprojects {
      repositories {
         ...
         maven { url "$rootDir/../node_modules/@worldpay/access-worldpay-checkout-react-native-sdk/android/" }
      }
   }
```
  2. Add the Android Bridge dependency in your gradle configuration.
#### gradle

```
dependencies { 
   ...
   implementation "com.worldpay.access:access-checkout-react-native-sdk-android-bridge:+"
   ...
}
```
  3. Add the `AccessCheckoutReactPackage` which contains the Android Bridge to the list of `ReactPackage` exposed by your `ReactApplication`.
2. Add a dependency to the iOS Bridge in the iOS part of your application.
To add the iOS dependency into your application, define the dependencies in the Podfile.
#### Cocoapods

```
target 'my-app' do
  ...
  pod 'AccessCheckoutReactNativeSDKiOSBridge', :path => '../node_modules/@worldpay/access-worldpay-checkout-react-native-sdk/ios/'
end
```

See our guides on how to create sessions you can use to take a payment:

Note
For one-time payments, you would need to [delete the token](/products/tokens/querying-and-updating-tokens#deleting-tokens) after you take the payment.

[**Create a session to pay with a card**](/products/checkout/react-native/v2/card-only).

1. [Submit card details to create a `session`](/products/checkout/react-native/v2/card-only).
2. Create a [verified token](/products/verified-tokens/create-verified-token).
3. [Take a payment](/products/card-payments/authorize-a-payment) with this token.


[**Create sessions to pay with a card and CVC**](/products/checkout/react-native/v2/card-and-cvc).

1. [Submit card details and CVC to create two separate sessions](/products/checkout/react-native/v2/card-and-cvc).
2. Create a [verified token](/products/verified-tokens/create-verified-token) with your `session.card`.
3. Use your `session.cvc` and verified token in our `card/checkout` payment instrument to [take a payment](/products/card-payments/authorize-a-payment).
