Usage with Jetpack Compose
f you're using Jetpack Compose, call the PaymentUI
composable function with the required parameters.
Integration Example
PaymentUI(
planID = "your_plan_id",
currency = "NGN",
amount = 100.0,
key = "your_key",
encryptionKey = "your_encryption_key",
customerEmail = "customer@example.com",
customerName = "John Doe",
customerPhoneNumber = "1234567890",
customerId = "customer_id",
paymentDescription = "Payment for services",
appLogo = R.drawable.your_logo,
appName = "Your App",
debugMode = true,
onSuccess = { transactionId, paymentData ->
// Handle successful payment
},
onFailure = { errorCode, errorMessage ->
// Handle payment failure
}
)
Usage by Launching an Activity
For apps not using Jetpack Compose, launch the payment activity directly.
Integration Example
SpotFlowPaymentActivity.start(
context = this,
merchantId = "your_merchant_id",
planID = "your_plan_id",
currency = "NGN",
amount = 100.0,
key = "your_key",
encryptionKey = "your_encryption_key",
customerEmail = "customer@example.com",
customerName = "John Doe",
customerPhoneNumber = "1234567890",
customerId = "customer_id",
paymentDescription = "Payment for services",
appLogo = R.drawable.your_logo,
appName = "Your App",
debugMode = true,
requestCode = PAYMENT_REQUEST_CODE
)
