PayMe Redirect Component

Add PayMe to an existing Components integration.

Use our Redirect Component to handle the redirect to the PayMe app. When adding PayMe to your existing Components integration, you also need to:

  1. Show PayMe in your payment form.
  2. Handle the redirect result when the shopper returns to your app.

PayMe is supported from Android Components version 4.0.0.

Include PayMe in the list of available payment methods.

  1. Specify in your /paymentMethods request:

The response contains paymentMethod.type: payme.
