Start Mobile SDK

Start is a payment gateway for Startups

Intro

Due to security rules from Visa/MasterCard developers can’t transmit card details directly to their server and have to use PCI DSS certified environment for this. Instead, card details are sent directly to our server and we return a card token in the response. The card token uniquely identifies each card, and can be used in all API calls that require a card e.g. create charge or customer.

Sometimes, during the payment process an additional 3D Secure verification may be required. This adds more complexity to payment flow. With mobile SDK we hide this complexity from developer.

Installation

Before you start you have to sign up for a Start account here. This instruction tells how to get API keys for SDK.

Download the latest AAR or grab via Maven:

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.payfort</groupId>
  <artifactId>start</artifactId>
  <version>LATEST_VERSION</version>
</dependency>

or Gradle:

compile 'com.payfort:start:LATEST_VERSION'

See the latest version here.

Usage

SDK provides following classes:

Card: let developer validate card details and show errors on payment form
Token: representation of token received from API
Start: let developer create card token

Card

Use code below to create and validate new Card object:

try {
    Card card = new Card(number, cvc, expirationMonth, expirationYear, owner);
} catch (CardVerificationException e) {
    // show validation errors
}

See sample app and javadoc for more details.

Start

The main goal of Start class is to create card token.

Start start = new Start(API_KEY);
start.createToken(activity, card, callback, amount, currency);

This instruction tells how to get API_KEY for SDK.

TokenCallback

Instance of TokenCallback is a callback you must provide to handle responses from Payfort Start. TokenCallback provides 3 methods:

onSuccess receives created token as argument
onError receives error object as argument with error from API
onCancel is called when user cancel receiving token
