Welcome to Braintree's Android SDK. This library will help you accept card and alternative payments in your Android app.
📣 A new major version of the SDK is now available. See the v5 migration guide for details.
The Braintree SDK supports Android API 23 and above.
The Braintree SDK requires Java 17 and uses Kotlin 1.9.10.
Upgrade your integration to continue accepting Braintree payments The SSL certificates for the Android SDK are set to expire by June 31, 2025. Upgrade to v4.45.0+ to continue using the Braintree SDK.
The features of the Braintree SDK are organized into modules that can be imported as dependencies in your build.gradle file.
See the Migration Guide for specific dependencies required for each module.
For an integration offering card payments, add the following dependency in your build.gradle:
dependencies {
implementation 'com.braintreepayments.api:card:5.2.0'
}To preview the latest work in progress builds, add the following SNAPSHOT dependency in your build.gradle:
dependencies {
implementation 'com.braintreepayments.api:card:5.0.0-beta2-SNAPSHOT'
}You will also need to add the Sonatype snapshots repo to your top-level build.gradle to import SNAPSHOT builds:
allprojects {
repositories {
maven {
url 'https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/'
}
}
}Start with 'Hello, Client!' for instructions on basic setup and usage.
Next, read the full documentation for information about integration options, such as Drop-In UI, PayPal and credit card tokenization.
We always recommend updating to the latest version of the SDK which can be found in our CHANGELOG.
