Google Pay Component

Add Google Pay to an existing Components integration.

Our Google Pay Component renders Google Pay in your payment form. When the shopper selects Google Pay, Drop-in invokes the payment sheet, where shoppers select the card they want to use, and completes the payment.

When building your Google Pay integration, you also need to handle the redirect if the the shopper makes a payment with a card that requires 3D Secure authentication.

Requirements

Requirement Description
Integration type Make sure that you have built your Components integration.
Setup steps Before you begin: .

Show Google Pay in your payment form

To show Google Pay Component in your payment form, you need to:

  1. Specify in your /paymentMethods request:

    • countryCode: Country or region where Google Pay is supported. For example, NL.
    • amount.currency: Any supported currency. For example, EUR.

  2. Deserialize the response from the /paymentMethods call and get the object with type: googlepay.

  3. Add the Google Pay Component:

    a. Import the Google Pay Component to your build.gradle file.

    implementation "com.adyen.checkout:googlepay:<latest-version>"

    Check the latest version on GitHub.

    b. Create a GooglePayConfiguration object, passing your client key. You can also include optional configuration, for example to add the amount on the Pay button.

    val amount = Amount()
       // Optional. In this example, the amount is EUR&nbsp;10.
        amount.currency = "EUR"
        amount.value = 10_00
    
    val googlePayConfig = GooglePayConfiguration.Builder(YourContext, "YOUR_CLIENT_KEY")
       .setAmount(amount)
       // When you are ready to accept live payments, change the value to one of our live environments (for example, Environment.LIVE).
       .setEnvironment(Environment.TEST)
       // Required for versions earlier than v4.5.0. When you are ready to accept live payments, change the value to ENVIRONMENT_PRODUCTION.
       .setGooglePayEnvironment(WalletConstants.ENVIRONMENT_TEST)
       .build()

    c. Check if Google Pay is available on the shopper's device. If available, initialize the Component and present a Google Pay button according to Google Pay specifications.

    var googlePayComponent: GooglePayComponent
    GooglePayComponent.PROVIDER.isAvailable(application, paymentMethod, googlePayConfiguration) {
            isAvailable: Boolean, paymentMethod: PaymentMethod, config: GooglePayConfiguration? ->
        if (isAvailable) {
            googlePayButton.visibility = View.VISIBLE
            googlePayComponent = GooglePayComponent.PROVIDER.get(YourContext, paymentMethod, googlePayConfiguration)
        }
    }

    d. When the shopper selects the Google Pay button, call startGooglePayScreen.

    googlePayComponent.startGooglePayScreen(YourContext, googlePayRequestCode)

    e. Pass the result to the Component, and wait to be notified by the observer.

    override fun onActivityResult(requestCode: Int, resultCode: Int, data: Intent?) {
        super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data)
        if (requestCode == googlePayRequestCode) {
            googlePayComponent.observe(YourContext) { googlePayComponentState ->
                if (googlePayComponentState?.isValid == true) {
                    // When the shopper proceeds to pay, pass the `paymentComponentState.data` to your server to send a /payments request
                    sendPayment(googlePayComponentState.data)
                }
            }
            googlePayComponent.handleActivityResult(resultCode, data)
        }
    }

Make a payment

When the shopper proceeds to pay, the Component returns the paymentComponentState.data.paymentMethod.

  1. Pass the paymentComponentState.data.paymentMethod to your server.
  2. From your server, make a /payments request, specifying:

    • paymentMethod.type: The paymentComponentState.data.paymentMethod from your client app.
    • browserInfo: Required if you want to trigger 3D Secure authentication.
    • returnURL: URL where the shopper will be redirected back to after completing a 3D Secure authentication. Get this URL from the Component in the RedirectComponent.getReturnUrl(context).

    The response contains the result of the payment.

    If the shopper used a card that requires 3D Secure authentication before the payment can be completed, you receive an action.type redirect in the response.

  1. Pass the action object to your client app. You need this to initialize the Redirect Component.

Cards with 3D Secure: Handle the redirect

If the shopper makes a payment with a card that requires 3D Secure authentication, use the Redirect Component to redirect the shopper to another website to complete the authentication. After the shopper returns to your app, make a POST /payments/details request from your server, providing:

  • details: The actionComponentData.details object from the Redirect Component.

You receive a response containing:

  • resultCode: Use this to present the payment result to your shopper.
  • pspReference: Our unique identifier for the transaction.

Present the payment result

Use the resultCode that you received in the /payments or /payments/details response to present the payment result to your shopper.
The resultCode values you can receive for Google Pay are:

resultCode Description Action to take
Authorised The payment was successful. Inform the shopper that the payment has been successful.
Error There was an error when the payment was being processed. Inform the shopper that there was an error processing their payment. The response contains a refusalReason, indicating the cause of the error.
Refused The payment was refused by the shopper's bank. Ask the shopper to try the payment again using a different payment method.

Recurring payments

To make recurring Google Pay payments, you first need to create a shopper token and then make subsequent recurring transactions with the token.
Refer to Tokenization for more information and detailed instructions.

Test and go live

To start testing Google Pay, log in to a Google account and create a Google Pay wallet.

There are two approaches to using this wallet for testing:

You can check the status of a Google Pay test payment in your Customer Area > Transactions > Payments, whether you used a card from the test card suite or or not. Remember that cards outside the test card suite are mapped to an Adyen test card of the same brand.

For more information, see Google Pay's test environment for Android.

Before you go live

We recommend that you test the scenarios described in Google Pay’s API reference for Android in your live environment.

  1. Make sure that your API credential has the API Clientside Encryption Payments role. Check this in your live Customer Area or ask your Admin user to verify.
  2. Go to your live Customer Area to configure your Google Merchant ID.
  3. Complete all the steps in the Google Pay API deploy to production documentation for Android.

In the live environment, note that Google Pay will only be available if:

  • The shopper is logged in to their Google account.
  • The shopper has at least one valid payment method on their Google Pay account.
