Integrate Card Widget to Your React Native App

Integrate Card widget to your React Native App using Pesaswap-node
This feature is currently in Beta.** For access, please contact us at info@pesaswap.com
Pesaswap recommends using the PaymentSheet instead of the Card Widget. Using only the Payment Element, you can accept multiple payment methods.

1. Build Card Widget on the Client

1.1 Add HyperProvider to Your React Native App

Use HyperProvider to ensure that you stay PCI compliant by sending payment details directly to the Pesaswap server.

1.2 Use HyperProvider

To initialize Pesaswap in your React Native app, wrap your payment screen with the HyperProvider component. Only the API publishable key in publishableKey is required. The following example shows how to initialize Pesaswap using the HyperProvider component:

1.3 Fetch the PaymentIntent Client Secret

Make a network request to the backend endpoint you created in the previous step. The clientSecret returned by your endpoint is used to complete the payment:

1.4 Render Your Card Widget

Use the Pesaswap CardField component to display a text field to securely collect card details. By using CardField, you guarantee that sensitive card details never touch your server:

1.5 Initiate Payment Session

Pass the PaymentIntent’s clientSecret to the initPaymentSession() function. The Pesaswap SDK automatically collects the card details from the CardField component:

1.6 Confirm the Payment

To confirm the payment, integrate a “Pay Now” button within the checkout page, which, when clicked, invokes the confirmWithCardForm() function. This function will return an asynchronous payment response with various payment statuses:
Important: Please retrieve the payment status from the Pesaswap backend to get the terminal status of the payment. Do not rely solely on the status returned by the SDK, as it may not always reflect the final state of the transaction.

Congratulations!

Now that you have integrated the Card Widget into your React Native app, you can customize the card form to match your app’s design and provide a seamless payment experience for your users.
