External Payment Options in the iPOSgo! In-App SDK (iOS)
We’ve added support for external payment transactions in the iPOSgo! In-App SDK for iOS. Developers can now initiate payments using new external payment methods with a consistent structure across flows, such as Sale, Refund, and Pre-Authorization.
New Payment Methods
| Payment Method | Description |
|---|---|
| Key-In | Manual card entry, typically used in card-not-present scenarios. |
| QR Code | The customer scans a QR code generated by the app to pay. |
| Send Link | A payment link is sent to the customer via SMS or email for remote payment. |
Transaction Examples
1. Manual Card Entry (Key-In)
Used when the card is not physically available; the merchant enters card details manually.
2. QR Code
For customer-present scenarios where the app displays a QR code to scan and pay.
3. Send Link
Used when the merchant wants to send a payment link via SMS or email.
Benefits
-

-
Simplifies transaction handling across different payment flows.

Provides merchants and customers with greater flexibility (manual entry, QR, or remote pay).
