I works for a bank that is considering using an instant app (and AppClip on iOS) to provision a newly approved credit card with both our card App and Google Pay. I know you cannot take payments, but does that mean you are locked out of TapAndPay completely? Would you be able to provision a card in Google Pay from an Instant App?
So after communication with Google Tap and Pay support, and trial and error -- the answer is yes. You can access TapAndPay; however, you can not recieve or make payments from an instant App.

I'm going to implement payout payment with Paypal and Credit card in my React Native application. There're two kinds of users in my app - customers and freelancers. Customers should pay to freelancers for their service.
The payment methods I'm going to implement are Paypal and various kinds of Credit cards. The backend server is based in NodeJS.
I'm quite new to this payout development and I'm really not sure where I should begin and which services I should use. Please reach out me any comments.
P.S. I'm contacting to Braintree service for several months and it's taking too long to register, so I'm looking for another solution now.
I don't know of a native solution that will allow you to facilitate payments to a PayPal account that is not yours.
Here is a non-native, vanilla JS demo pattern for PayPal Checkout: https://developer.paypal.com/demo/checkout/#/pattern/server
Using such a checkout, you can set a custom payee to the freelancer's account: https://developer.paypal.com/docs/checkout/integration-features/custom-payee/
I'm trying to build up an android platform that takes in user credit card info and charge it on use without inserting the credit card details after saving one. But I don't seem to actually see any possible work ways in the "In-App Payment" SDK and I think I see it under Square's java SDK. But as researched in github, their official reply is that I'm unable to use java SDK in android app.
So I'm trying to figure out has anyone done this before or face the same issue?
In-App Payments SDK is solely meant for generating a card nonce on your mobile application. All other API endpoints must be done on a server or service due to security reasons (you don't want to store your personal access token within your application). Once you have that nonce, you need a server or service running that your mobile application will talk to. Ie the most basic is passing the nonce to the Charge endpoint to charge a customer.
On that same note, we have another endpoint called CreateCustomerCard, which you can pass the nonce as well as customer_id to in order to save the card to this particular customer's profile. So, at the very least you'll need to create a customer in order to have their id.
For info around saving cards on file, see this post: Hot to generate card nonce for repeated transactions without making users to enter card details?
I am so confused about the services and over here the paypal website also seems to be serving up 400's and 404s.
This is how the webpage looks for customers on my site when they are ready to pay:
As far as I know, I don't have Express Checkout, but I'm not sure if I have Website Payments Pro (my company created this account).
Now I have two questions:
1- This is just the sandbox. But on the real site, does this solution that give users the opportunity to pay by credit card? I've actually successfully done a credit card transaction in the sandbox, I'm just worried because I've heard that customers can only do direct credit card transactions in PayPal Website Payments Pro. The PayPal website is overloaded with information and I can't find my way around it to answer simple questions like this.
2- Is it possible to do negative testing for transactions on this page? Such as simulating the events that the user's credit card or Paypal account doesn't have enough balance? If it is possible, and I am using the ButtonManagerAPI, then is the technique below the correct way to go about it?
I put an error code in the amount variable that is passed on to IPN via via an NVP api call, like this (lots of value pairs in the middle excluded as irrelevant):
$nvpReq = "BUTTONCODE=HOSTED&..............&L_BUTTONVAR1=amount=".$err_code
EDIT
So it appears I have PayPal Website Payments Standard, which means I cannot incorporate cannot have credit card payment forms directly on my website, but customers have to be directed to PayPal. I'm fine with that, as long as customers have the option to pay with credit cards.
The screenshot looks like PayPal Standard, which is an HTML-only (non-API) integration.
Any regular business account that can receive money can make use of the Express Checkout API.. typically by authenticating with an API USER/PWD/SIGNATURE. For businesses with programming/development resources, EC is by far the recommended way to accept PayPal payments.
If you pass SOLUTIONTYPE=Sole in the initial SetExpressCheckout call, it will accept credit cards from "guest" customers who don't have a PayPal account, similar to the Standard screenshot you're displaying above.
The main reason to choose EC over Standard is that it's a much tighter handshake between your checkout software and PayPal's servers. With Standard's HTML-only, the customer is redirected away from your site and might not return to your site after a successful transaction is committed (they may stay on paypal.com and not click to return or their browser might crash before return --- whereas with EC the return to your site is built-in before anything touches the financial system)
With the recent beta of developer.paypal.com, all new sandbox Business accounts are full Pro accounts by default. Signing up for a live Pro account would be useful if, in addition to accepting PayPal payments, you wished to create a credit card entry form directly on your own site.
Here are some EC links for programmers:
https://tryit.paypal.com/guide/ec
https://paypal-labs.com/integrationwizard/ecpaypal/main.php
The button manager API is unlikely to be useful to you. And there are ways to do negative testing with the sandbox, but it's really not an important concern when you're still deciding on a product/API.
I am working on one app. In this app to buy some non digital items i have to give access to users to do transactions using credit card / debit card. I have seen some apps in app store which accepts credit card / debit card . Those apps are Pay Anywhere , Rev COIN.
1) Can we know which third party API's they are using. 2)While using these apps do we need any card reader(another device) to swipe the card.
As well how to get those API's. Can any one help me please. This plays majority role in my app. Any suggestions please.
Doing some transactions with ZOOZ are ok . But coming to my app i have one requirement. i.e user can send order for one item and user can say expiry time(i.e in how many days product has to be delivered) at the time of offering an item payment will be done. before delivering the product user can cancel the order. whenever the order is cancelled some amount has to be deducted and remaining has to be refunded.
For example user sending request for pepsi which is worth of 10$ and expiry time is 3days payment will be done immediately. Next day he may want to cancel the order in such a case user 2$ will be deducted and remaining 8$ has to be credited back to user account. Can we do any these type of transactions using some API's.
Zooz is one way that you can do in-app payments. It's supposed to be easy. That kind of model would be for you using an app as a kind of online "store" like amazon.
If you're talking about using an iOS device to record transactions (using a single unit as a cash-register system) then you would need a card swipe add-on unless you want the customer to input all of their credit information when they pay.
Or, as jgervin pointed out you could use card.io to let the users take a picture of their credit card. The company charges you per-scan however.
Important note: Apple will reject your app from the app-store. See the linked questions.
Pay for a physical product with in-app purchase
Has anyone implemented the PayPal API through a native iPhone app?
Which PayPal iPhone SDK should I use?
So hopefully you're planning to deploy with airwatch or something similar.
Is there a way to programmatically transfer an iTunes gift card to some user?
Or credit an iTunes account?
Thanks!
I had a chat with the Apple customer care and they told me that it is not possible to do this programmatically (right now). They said that we can either download iTunes and use the interface to send a virtual iTunes gift card or buy and send a physical gift card.
Since I wanted to have an API(ish) support for this she said the only way was to talk to someone from business relations at Apple.
Hope this information helps.
Tango Card can deliver iTunes eCards via API (pending approval), along with many other retailers. API is open source and no fees to integrate or ever. Check out the Github site here: https://github.com/tangocarddev
