PayPal Commerce iOS SDK

Overviewanchor

availability

PayPal Commerce is currently in closed beta. Apply to join at commerce.paypal.com/register.

PayPal Commerce is building a better way to sell on mobile without changing the way you do business. We give your customers a mobile shopping experience with less typing, smarter purchasing, and more flexibility. We give you a mobile shop that can exist as a standalone app or embedded into your existing app, all with minimal code.

Simply connect your ecommerce platform and you can process and fulfill orders as you normally do. Currently, we support Magento, Bigcommerce, and Demandware, and we are actively working on integrating more third party platforms.

Sign up to receive emails when we release new versions of the SDK. When a new version is released, we will email you, as well as post a tag in the Releases section and update the CHANGELOG.md file.

About the SDKanchor

You can find the SDK on GitHub at github.com/braintree/paypal-commerce-ios.

The SDK supports three use cases:

  • A store as a standalone app.
  • A store embedded in your existing app (either modally or more deeply embedded, for example in a tab bar controller).
  • Products and buy buttons embedded in your existing app to enable purchasing without leaving the app.

All of these are powered by the PayPal Commerce platform. You can manage your stores, credentials, and backends by visiting the PayPal Commerce Panel. You will continue to manage your products, inventory, order processing, and shipment fulfillment as you do today with your own ecommerce platform.
