Backend API V2.4 enhances reliability and minimizes synchronization issues with external processors by significantly extending payment timeouts. This longer timeout accommodates external processor limits and internal operations, ensuring more reliable transaction handling. These improvements are fully supported starting with Primer iOS SDK 2.34.0, so upgrading your app to use the newest SDK version is highly recommended when creating client sessions with API V2.4.
Install the SDK
With CocoaPods
Add the following in your Podfile:Then run pod install to install PrimerSDK on your workspace.In case you encounter an error that the bundle needs signing on Xcode 14, add the following post-install script in your podfile. With Swift Package Manager
The Swift Package Manager is a tool for automating the distribution of Swift code and is integrated into Xcode. In order to add PrimerSDK with Swift Package Manager:
- Select your project, and then navigate to
Package Dependencies
- Click on the + button at the bottom-left of the
Packages section
- Paste https://github.com/primer-io/primer-sdk-ios.git into the Search Bar, or search for
primer-sdk-ios in the Search Bar.
- Press Add Package
- Let Xcode download the package and set everything up
For more details about SDK versions, please see our changelog. Initialize Universal Checkout
Import the PrimerSDK and set its delegate as shown in the following example:Show Universal Checkout
At this step you should have a client token available - see Manage Client Sessions for more.Call the showUniversalCheckout(clientToken:) function (as shown below) to present Universal Checkout.You should now be able to see Universal Checkout! The user can now interact with Universal Checkout, and the SDK will create the payment. The payment’s data will be returned on primerDidCompleteCheckoutWithData(_:) configured in the previous step.
When the user interacts with the checkout and clicks to pay, the Universal Checkout:
- Shows the payment method screen if applicable
- Tokenizes the payment method for payment
- Creates the payment
- Handles any other interactions (e.g. 3DS)
Handle successful payments
Listen to delegate function
Listen to the primerDidCompleteCheckoutWithData(_:) delegate functionThis function will notify you of a successful payment.Handle webhooks in your dashboard
To receive updates about the status of your payments you’ll need to listen to webhooks. This is particularly useful for updating an order or any other data stored server-side.Head to the Developers section of the Primer Dashboard to setup and test a webhook for PAYMENT.STATUS event.If you are not yet ready to receive webhooks, you can use https://webhook.site to test your implementation.Handle failed payments
Any errors, cancelled payment interactions or failed payments will trigger the primerDidFailWithError(_:data:decisionHandler:) delegate function.Backend API V2.4 enhances reliability and minimizes synchronization issues with external processors by significantly extending payment timeouts. This longer timeout accommodates external processor limits and internal operations, ensuring more reliable transaction handling. These improvements are fully supported starting with Primer Android SDK 2.35.0, so upgrading your app to use the newest SDK version is highly recommended when creating client sessions with API V2.4.
Install the SDK
Add the following to your app/build.gradle file:For more details about SDK versions, please see our changelog. It is highly recommended adding the following settings to your app/build.gradle file:Initialize Universal Checkout
Prepare the PrimerCheckoutListener that will handle the callbacks that happen during the lifecycle. Import the Primer SDK and set its listener as shown in the following example:Show Universal Checkout
At this step you should have a client token available - see Manage Client Sessions for more.When the client token is retrieved, show Universal Checkout by calling showUniversalCheckout method:You should now be able to see Universal Checkout! The user can now interact with Universal Checkout, and the SDK will create the payment. The payment’s data will be returned on onCheckoutCompleted() configured in the previous step.
When the user interacts with the checkout and clicks to pay, the Universal Checkout:
- Shows the payment method screen if applicable
- Tokenizes the payment method for payment
- Creates the payment
- Handles any other interactions (e.g. 3DS)

Add the SDK packageRequirement for iOSOnce you are done, navigate to the /ios folder and run pod install.For more details about SDK versions, please see our changelog. Initialize Universal Checkout
Import the Primer SDK, construct your settings and call the SDK’s configure function.Show Universal Checkout
First, make an API call to your backend to fetch a client token. Here is a simple example of how it can be done from your component. Once successful store your client token for future use.See Manage Client Sessions for more.Now, call the showUniversalCheckout(clientToken) function, with the client token to present Universal Checkout.You should now be able to see Universal Checkout! The user can now interact with Universal Checkout, and the SDK will create the payment. The payment’s data will be returned on primerDidCompleteCheckoutWithData(_:) configured in the previous step.
