Android Integration
This is a new integration provided by Cashfree. If you are integrating with Cashfree PG for the first time, we recommend that you use this integration.
We have revamped our Android SDK to make it easy for our merchants to integrate and customize their payment flows. Our Android SDK supports Android SDK version 19 and above and provides two modes of integration
- Drop Checkout - Pre-built native Android UI screen to facilitate a quick integration with our payment gateway. This mode handles all the business logic and UI Components to make the payment smooth and easy to use. The SDK allows the merchant to customize the UI in terms of color coding, fonts and payment modes shown.
- Element Checkout - Merchant creates the payment screen as per their requirement inside their application which uses our Android SDK to process the payment. Once the payment is initiated, the SDK informs the merchant application about the payment events using callback functions (example:- when to show the webview for 2FA or start verifying payment).
