The Stripe iOS SDK makes it quick and easy to build an excellent payment experience in your iOS app. We provide powerful and customizable UI screens and elements that can be used out-of-the-box to collect your users' payment details. We also expose the low-level APIs that power those UIs so that you can build fully custom experiences.
Get started with our 📚 integration guides and example projects, or 📘 browse the SDK reference.

Features
Simplified security: We make it simple for you to collect sensitive data such as credit card numbers and remain PCI compliant. This means the sensitive data is sent directly to Stripe instead of passing through your server. For more information, see our integration security guide.
Apple Pay: StripeApplePay provides a seamless integration with Apple Pay.
SCA-ready: The SDK automatically performs native 3D Secure authentication if needed to comply with Strong Customer Authentication regulation in Europe.
Native UI: We provide native screens and elements to collect payment details. For example, PaymentSheet is a prebuilt UI that combines all the steps required to pay - collecting payment details, billing details, and confirming the payment - into a single sheet that displays on top of your app.
Stripe API: StripePayments provides low-level APIs that correspond to objects and methods in the Stripe API. You can build your own entirely custom UI on top of this layer, while still taking advantage of utilities like STPCardValidator to validate your user’s input.
App Clips: The StripeApplePay module provides a lightweight SDK for offering Apple Pay in an App Clip.
Localized: We support the following localizations: Arabic (Saudi Arabia), Bulgarian, Catalan, Chinese (Hong Kong), Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English (US), English (United Kingdom), Estonian, Filipino, Finnish, French, French (Canada), German, Greek, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Latvian, Lithuanian, Malay, Maltese, Norwegian Bokmål, Norwegian Nynorsk (Norway), Polish, Portuguese, Portuguese (Brazil), Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Spanish (Latin America), Swedish, Turkish, Thai, Vietnamese and Welsh.
Identity: Learn about our Stripe Identity iOS SDK to verify the identity of your users.
Recommended usage
If you're selling digital products or services that will be consumed within your app, (e.g. subscriptions, in-game currencies, game levels, access to premium content, or unlocking a full version), you must use Apple's in-app purchase APIs. See the App Store review guidelines for more information. For all other scenarios you can use this SDK to process payments via Stripe.
