Integrating Android Card SDK in your application

Introduction

Before diving into the development process, it's essential to establish the prerequisites and criteria necessary for a successful build. In this step, we'll outline the specific Android requirements, including the minimum SDK version and other important details you need to consider. Let's ensure your project is set up for success from the very beginning.

Sample Demo

UI

Step 1: Requirements

  • A minimum Android SDK/API level of 24+
  • In order to accept online payments on your application, you will need to add at least the Internet permission in the manifest file.
        <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" /> //get internet access to complete online payments
    

Step 2: Get Your Public Keys

While you can certainly use the sandbox keys available within our sample app which you can get by following the installation process, however, we highly recommend visiting our onboarding page, there you'll have the opportunity to register your package name and acquire your essential Tap Key for activating Card-Android integration.

Step 3: Installation Using Gradle

  1. In your project gradle module, add the following:
allprojects {
    repositories {
        google()
        jcenter()
        maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
    }
}

❗️

Note that if you are on older Android Studio version, the above will be added in project's build.gradle. However, if you are using the latest version of Android studio you will have to add the above in setting.gradle

  1. Then to get the latest dependency add the following in either build.gradle or setting.gradle, depending on your Android Studio version:
dependencies {
  implementation : 'com.github.Tap-Payments:Card-Android:0.0.33'
}

Step 4: Integrating Card-Android

This integration offers two distinct options: a simple integration designed for rapid development and streamlined merchant requirements, and an advanced integration that adds extra features for a more dynamic payment integration experience.

Integration Flow

Noting that in Android Studio, you have the ability to create the UI part of the Card-Android by creating it as normal widget in your layout.xml then implement the functionality through code or fully create it by code. Below we will describe both flows:

  1. You will have to create a variable of type TapCardKit, which can be done in one of two ways:
    • Created by XML and then linked to a variable in code.
    • Created totally within the code.
  2. Once you create the variable in any way, you will have to follow these steps:
    • Create the parameters.
    • Pass the parameters to the variable.
    • Implement TapCardStatusDelegate interface, which allows you to get notified by different events fired from within the Card SDK, also called callback functions.
    • Start tokenizing a card on demand.

Initialising the UI

🚧

Note: You can initialise the Card-Android SDK either using XML for the layout then implementing the functionality through code or directly create everything through Code as provided below.

Using XML to create the Layout/UI

  1. Creating the TapCardKit using xml
    1. When you create a new project, Android studio creates for you activity_main.xml, where it shows a default blank screen.
    2. Add Card Form widget into your layout as follows:
      <company.tap.tapcardformkit.open.web_wrapper.TapCardKit
              android:layout_width="match_parent"
              android:layout_height="wrap_content"
              android:id="@+id/tapCard"
              app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
              app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
              app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
              app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />
      
      Note: Height is set to wrap_content, to allow our card to expand and shrink based on the scenario. Like, showing/hiding the card name, etc.
  2. Accessing the Card From created in XML in your code
    In order to access the card form that you just created, follow the below steps:
    1. Go to your MainActivity class.
    2. Create a class variable that will be linked afterwards to the widget we created in the xml above.
    /// A reference to link to the XML view created
    lateinit var tapCardForm: TapCardKit
    
    1. In your onCreate method, link the created variable to the UI widget inside the XML.
    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    	super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
    	setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
    	/// Here we attach the variable to the created view in the xml by providing the same id
    	/// we hade inside the xml view we created above
    	tapCardForm =  findViewById<TapCardKit>(R.id.tapCard)
    	/// Let us create the parameters to configure our card form
    	configureCardForm()
    }
    

Using Code to create the Layout/UI

  • Creating the TapCardKit from code

    1. When you generate a new project, Android Studio creates a default layout file activity_main.xml, we will have to open it up and add an id parameter for the parent layout so we can reference the layout and add to it, our created TapCardKit widget. We have used in this sample, LinearLayout for simplicity.
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <LinearLayout xmlns:android="[http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android](http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android)"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:orientation="vertical"
        android:id="@+id/linearparent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent">
    
    </LinearLayout>
    
    1. Head to the auto-generated file MainActivity.kt and do the following:
      1. Create a class variable as follows
        /// A reference to link to the XML view created
        lateinit var tapCardForm: TapCardKit
        
      2. Create and inflate the variable in the auto-created onCreate function:
        override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
          super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
          setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
          /// We will have to create the layout parameters (widht & height) by code now
          val linearLayoutParams = LinearLayout.LayoutParams(
            LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT
          )
          // Apply the layout parameters we configured to our varibale. Preparing it to be correctly inflated
          tapCardForm  = TapCardKit(this)
          tapCardForm.layoutParams = linearLayoutParams
          // Now you need to add the widget to the layout, using the id we created in the last step
          this.findViewById<LinearLayout>(R.id.linearparent).addView(tapCardForm)
          /// Let us create the parameters to configure our card form
          configureCardForm()
        }
        

Simple Integration

Here, you'll discover a comprehensive table featuring the parameters applicable to the simple integration. Additionally, you'll explore the various methods for integrating the SDK, either using XML to create the layout and then implementing the controllers functionalities by code, or directly using code. Furthermore, you'll gain insights into card tokenization after the initial payment and learn how to receive the callback notifications.

Parameters

Each parameter is linked to the reference section, which provides a more in depth explanation of it.

orderOrder details linked to the tokenTrueDictionaryvar order = HashMap\<String, Any>(), order.put("id","") order.put("amount",1),order.put("currency","SAR"), order.put("description",""), order.put("reference":"A reference to this order in your system"))
customerCustomer details for tokenization processTrueDictionary var customer = HashMap\<String,Any> ,customer.put("id,""), customer.put("nameOnCard","Tap Payments"),customer.put("editable",true),) var name :HashMap\<String,Any> = \[["lang":"en","first":"TAP","middle":"", "last":"PAYMENTS"]] "contact":\["email":"[[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])", "phone":["countryCode":"+965","number":"88888888"]]] customer.put("name",name) , customer.put("contact",contact)\

Configuring the Card-Android SDK

After creating the UI using any of the previously mentioned ways, it is time to pass the parameters needed for the SDK to work as expected and serve your need correctly.

  1. Creating the parameters
    To allow flexibility and to ease the integration, your application will only has to pass the parameters as a HashMap<String,Any>() .
    First, let us create the required parameters:

    val configuration = LinkedHashMap<String,Any>()
    
    /**
             * operator
             */
    val operator = HashMap<String,Any>()
    operator.put("publicKey","")
    /**
             * order
             */
    val order = HashMap<String,Any>()
    order.put("id", "")
    order.put("amount", "1")
    order.put("currency","SAR")
    order.put("description","")
    order.put("reference","")
    /**
             * phone
             */
    val phone = java.util.HashMap<String,Any>()
    phone.put("countryCode","+20")
    phone.put("number","011")
    
    /**
             * contact
             */
    val contact = java.util.HashMap<String,Any>()
    contact.put("email","[email protected]")
    contact.put("phone",phone)
    /**
             * name
             */
    val name = java.util.HashMap<String,Any>()
    name.put("lang","en")
    name.put("first", "first")
    name.put("middle", "middle")
    name.put("last",  "last")
    /**
             * customer
             */
    val customer = java.util.HashMap<String,Any>()
    customer.put("nameOnCard", "test")
    customer.put("editable",true)
    customer.put("contact",contact)
    customer.put("name", listOf(name))
    
    configuration.put("operator",operator)
    configuration.put("scope","Authenticate")
    configuration.put("order",order)
    configuration.put("customer",customer)
    
  2. Pass these parameters to the created Card Form variable before as follows

    /// This static interface is provided publicly from the Card-Android SDK to pass the parameters. It takes 4 parameters
    /// 1. Conext. Which is your building context of the current activity
    /// 2. The view of type CardKit we created before.
    /// 3. The parameters we created before.
    /// 4. A class that implements TapCardStatusDelegate (more on this later)
    TapCardConfiguration.configureWithTapCardDictionaryConfiguration(
      this,
      tapCardForm,
      configuration,this)
    

Full code snippet for creating the parameters + passing it TapCardKit variable

/// A sample function showing how to integrate and configure the TapCardKit with minimal data required
fun configureCardForm()  {
  // optionally call this function if you want to use the scanner functionality before configuring the card form.
  checkAndRequestPermissions()
  val configuration = LinkedHashMap<String,Any>()

  /**
         * operator
         */
  val operator = HashMap<String,Any>()
  operator.put("publicKey","")
  /**
         * order
         */
  val order = HashMap<String,Any>()
  order.put("id", "")
  order.put("amount", "1")
  order.put("currency","SAR")
  order.put("description","")
  order.put("reference","")
  /**
         * phone
         */
  val phone = java.util.HashMap<String,Any>()
  phone.put("countryCode","+20")
  phone.put("number","011")

  /**
         * contact
         */
  val contact = java.util.HashMap<String,Any>()
  contact.put("email","[email protected]")
  contact.put("phone",phone)
  /**
         * name
         */
  val name = java.util.HashMap<String,Any>()
  name.put("lang","en")
  name.put("first", "first")
  name.put("middle", "middle")
  name.put("last",  "last")
  /**
         * customer
         */
  val customer = java.util.HashMap<String,Any>()
  customer.put("nameOnCard", "test")
  customer.put("editable",true)
  customer.put("contact",contact)
  customer.put("name", listOf(name))

  configuration.put("operator",operator)
  configuration.put("scope","Authenticate")
  configuration.put("order",order)
  configuration.put("customer",customer)

  TapCardConfiguration.configureWithTapCardDictionaryConfiguration(
    this,
    tapCardForm,
    configuration,this)
/// optionally call this function if you want to use the scanner functionality before configuring the card form.
fun checkAndRequestPermissions(): Boolean {
    val camera = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(
        this,
        Manifest.permission.CAMERA
    )
    val listPermissionsNeeded: MutableList<String> = ArrayList()
    if (camera != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
        listPermissionsNeeded.add(Manifest.permission.CAMERA)
    }
    if (!listPermissionsNeeded.isEmpty()) {
        ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(
            this,
            listPermissionsNeeded.toTypedArray(),
            REQUEST_ID_MULTIPLE_PERMISSIONS
        )
        return false
    }
    return true
}

Tokenise the card

📘

A token is like a secret code that stands in for sensitive info, like credit card data. Instead of keeping the actual card info, we use this code. Tokens are hard for anyone to understand if they try to peek, making it a safer way to handle sensitive stuff.

Following the above code samples, once the TapCardKit now has a valid input, you will be able to start the tokenization process by calling the public interface which you can find by following Step 5 - Tokenize the card.

Receiving Callback Notifications

Now we have created the UI and the parameters required to to correctly display Tap card form. For the best experience, your class will have to implement TapCardStatusDelegate interface, which is a set of optional callbacks, that will be fired based on different events from within the card form. This will help you in deciding the logic you need to do upon receiving each event. Kindly follow the below steps in order to complete the mentioned flow:

  1. Go back to MainActivity.kt file
  2. Head to the class declaration line
  3. Add TapCardStatusDelegate
  4. Override the required callbacks as follows:
/// Will be fired whenever there is an error related to the card connectivity or apis
/// - Parameter data: includes a JSON format for the error description and error
override fun onError(error: String) {
  Log.i("log",error)
}
/**
 Will be fired whenever the card sdk finishes successfully the task assigned to it. Whether `TapToken` or `AuthenticatedToken`
 - Parameter data: will include the data in JSON format. For `TapToken`:
 			{
         "id": "tok_MrL97231045SOom8cF8G939",
         "created": 1694169907939,
         "object": "token",

             "brand": "VISA",
             "scheme": "VISA",
             "category": "",
             "exp_month": 4,
             "exp_year": 24,
             "last_four": "4242",
             "first_six": "424242",
             "name": "AHMED",
             "issuer": {
                "bank": "",
                "country": "GB",
                "id": "bnk_TS07A0720231345Qx1e0809820"
            }
         },
         "url": ""
     }
 */
override fun onSuccess(data: String) {
  Log.i("log",data)

}
/**
 *  Will be fired whenever the validity of the card data changes.
 *  Parameter isValid: Will be true if the card data is valid and false otherwise.
 */
override fun onValidInput(isValid: String) {
  Log.i("log",isValid)
}

Note: At this point, your MainActivity.kt file should look like this:

Advanced Integration

The advanced configuration for the Card-Android integration not only has all the features available in the simple integration but also introduces new capabilities, providing merchants with maximum flexibility. You can find a code below, where you'll discover comprehensive guidance on implementing the advanced flow as well as a complete description of each parameter.

Initialisation of the input

You can use a Dictionary HashMap to send data to our SDK. The benefit is that you can generate this data from one of your APIs. If we make updates to the configurations, you can update your API, avoiding the need to update your app on the Google Play Store.

Step 5: Tokenize the Card

The Card-Adroid SDK provides a public interface that allows you to instruct it to start the tokenization process on demand or whenever you see convenient, in your logic flow. As a guidance we would only recommend calling this interface after getting onValidInput callback as described above and shown in the code block below.

📘

Tokenize the Card

What is a Token?

A token is like a secret code that stands in for sensitive info, like credit card data. Instead of keeping the actual card info, we use this code. Tokens are hard for anyone to understand if they try to peek, making it a safer way to handle sensitive stuff.

What is Tokenization of a Card?

Card tokenization is like changing your credit card into a secret code. You can use this code safely without showing your actual card info. It's a common practice in payments to keep things secure and prevent your card details from being seen by others.

Why Do I Need to Tokenize a Card?

There are several reasons to tokenize a card:

  • Security
    Tokenization helps protect sensitive card data, reducing the risk of data breaches or unauthorized access.
  • Compliance
    Many regulations and industry standards, like PCI DSS, require the use of tokenization to safeguard cardholder data.
  • Recurring Payments
    Tokens are useful for recurring payments, as they allow you to charge a customer's card without storing their actual card details.
  • Convenience
    Tokens simplify payment processing, as you only need to deal with tokens instead of card numbers.
/// In this example, we will assume that you want to generate the token, once the user fills in correct and valid card data
override fun onValidInput(isValid: String) {
        Log.i("log", isValid)
        when (isValid.toBoolean()) {
            true -> tapCardForm.generateTapToken()
            false -> {}
        }

    }

👍

Also, once you correctly trigger the interface, you should expect to hear back from the SDK in one of two callbacks, onSuccess or onError.
