🍴Active forks & alternatives 🍴

[nabilfreeman]

Hi all,

Considering this library is not actively maintained, I want to share a list of forks and alternatives that have sprouted in the last couple of years.

This list is not comprehensive and might not be always up to date. If you see anything missing, or if a library has been archived or is no longer active, please leave a comment.

Off the shelf solutions

Firstly, if you are using Stripe or Braintree, you are probably better off using these SDKS.
Stripe #335
Braintree #405

These both also support PayPal, as an aside (but Braintree is easier to setup on the merchant side because it's owned by PayPal).

Expo

If you are using Expo / Expo Go, you should 1 million percent use the Stripe SDK. In fact, if you are in the managed environment it is your only option:
#335

Forks and alternatives

If you want something more custom, or you are working with merchants that are not above you should go here:

appfolio/react-native-payments

Probably most recommended as this has been actively maintained for a few years now

Planning to add Expo module support for the https://github.com/rnw-community/rnw-community/tree/master/packages/react-native-payments in the near future, also looking forward for the community feedback on the library
