Android Studio Pay

Android Studio Pay is a payment service that allows users to make secure and fast transactions through their Android devices. This service is integrated into Android Studio, making it easily accessible to developers who wish to incorporate payment functionality into their apps.

Syntax

To use Android Studio Pay, developers must integrate the Google Play Billing Library into their application. Once integrated, developers can utilize various methods provided by the library to initiate payment requests, handle responses, and manage subscriptions.

// initiate a payment request
billingClient.launchBillingFlow(activity, billingParams);

// handle payment response
@Override
public void onPurchasesUpdated(BillingResult billingResult, List<Purchase> purchases) {
    if (billingResult.getResponseCode() == BillingClient.BillingResponseCode.OK && purchases != null) {
        for (Purchase purchase : purchases) {
            // handle successful purchase
        }
    } else if (billingResult.getResponseCode() == BillingClient.BillingResponseCode.USER_CANCELED) {
        // handle user canceled purchase
    } else {
        // handle other errors
    }
}

// manage subscriptions
billingClient.queryPurchases(BillingClient.SkuType.SUBS);

billingClient.queryPurchaseHistory(BillingClient.SkuType.SUBS);

billingClient.querySkuDetailsAsync(params, skuDetailsResponseListener);

Example

Below is an example of how to initiate a payment request using Android Studio Pay:

private static final String SKU_ID = "your_sku_id";

private BillingClient billingClient;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    // initialize billing client
    billingClient = BillingClient.newBuilder(this)
            .enablePendingPurchases()
            .setListener(this)
            .build();

    // initiate payment request
    billingClient.startConnection(new BillingClientStateListener() {
        @Override
        public void onBillingServiceDisconnected() {
            // handle disconnected service
        }

        @Override
        public void onBillingSetupFinished(BillingResult billingResult) {
            if (billingResult.getResponseCode() == BillingClient.BillingResponseCode.OK) {
                List<String> skuList = new ArrayList<>();
                skuList.add(SKU_ID);
                SkuDetailsParams skuDetailsParams = SkuDetailsParams.newBuilder()
                        .setSkusList(skuList)
                        .setType(BillingClient.SkuType.INAPP)
                        .build();
                billingClient.querySkuDetailsAsync(skuDetailsParams,
                        new SkuDetailsResponseListener() {
                            @Override
                            public void onSkuDetailsResponse(BillingResult billingResult, List<SkuDetails> skuDetailsList) {
                                if (billingResult.getResponseCode() == BillingClient.BillingResponseCode.OK && skuDetailsList != null) {
                                    if (skuDetailsList.size() == 1) {
                                        BillingFlowParams billingFlowParams = BillingFlowParams.newBuilder()
                                                .setSkuDetails(skuDetailsList.get(0))
                                                .build();
                                        billingClient.launchBillingFlow(MainActivity.this, billingFlowParams);
                                    }
                                }
                            }
                        });
            }
        }
    });
}

Output

The above code will launch a payment flow in Android Studio Pay, allowing users to enter their payment information and complete the transaction.

Explanation

Android Studio Pay uses the Google Play Billing Library to handle payment requests and manage subscriptions. Developers must integrate the library into their application and utilize various methods provided to initiate payment requests, handle responses, and manage subscriptions.

To initiate a payment request, developers create a billing client and connect to the billing service. They then query the SKU details for their product, create a billing flow parameters object with the SKU details, and launch the billing flow activity.

When users complete the payment flow, the library sends a response to the developer's application, which they must handle using the onPurchasesUpdated method.

Use

Developers can use Android Studio Pay to incorporate payment functionality into their Android applications. They can offer in-app purchases, subscriptions, and other payment options to users.

Important Points

• Android Studio Pay requires the Google Play Billing Library to be integrated into the application.
• Developers must initialize a billing client and connect to the billing service to use Android Studio Pay.
• Android Studio Pay supports in-app purchases, subscriptions, and other payment options.

Summary

Android Studio Pay is a payment service that allows developers to incorporate payment functionality into their Android applications. Using the Google Play Billing Library, developers can initiate payment requests, handle responses, and manage subscriptions. Android Studio Pay supports in-app purchases, subscriptions, and other payment options, making it a versatile tool for developers.
