Getting a Token (iOS & Android)

It's a cinch to obtain a single-use card token using the react-native-paystack module. Pls note, the SDK assumes you are responsible for building the card form/UI.

RNPaystack.getToken(cardNumber, expiryMonth, expiryYear, cvc);

To be more elaborate, RNPaystack.getToken() returns a Javascript Promise like:

import RNPaystack from 'react-native-paystack';

getToken() {

	RNPaystack.getToken('4123450131001381', '01', '17', '883')
	.then(response => {
	  console.log(response); // do stuff with the token
	})
	.catch(error => {
	  console.log(error); // error is a javascript Error object
	  console.log(error.message);
	  console.log(error.code);
	})
	
}

}

Charging a Card (Android Only)

Using the react-native-paystack module, you can complete the transaction with the Paystack Android SDK. Note that as with getting a card token, the SDK assumes you are responsible for building the card form/UI.

RNPaystack.chargeCard(cardNumber, expiryMonth, expiryYear, cvc, email, amountInKobo);

To be more elaborate, RNPaystack.chargeCard() returns a Javascript Promise like:

import RNPaystack from 'react-native-paystack';

chargeCard() {

	RNPaystack.chargeCard('4123450131001381', '01', '17', '883', 'dev-master@rnpaystack.dev', '10000')
	.then(response => {
	  console.log(response); // card charged successfully, get reference here
	})
	.catch(error => {
	  console.log(error); // error is a javascript Error object
	  console.log(error.message);
	  console.log(error.code);
	})
	
}

Request Signature

Argument	Type	Description
cardNumber	string	the card number as a String without any seperator e.g 5555555555554444
