Top Mobile In-App Payments Solutions

Mobile in-app payment solutions

Mobile commerce has been on a steady rise for the past few years, and according to Statista, it is projected to make up 72.9% of all e-commerce by 2021. And with 85% of consumers preferring apps over mobile sites and mobile apps holding the lowest cart abandonment rate at 20%, e-commerce apps are rapidly gaining in popularity.

However, not all payment solutions have great support for mobile apps. In this post, we will take a quick look at some of the top in-app payment solutions.

Mobile in-app payment solutions

Stripe

Stripe is the company that democratized online payments and arguably the most popular payment solution regardless of platform. They offer SDKs for iOS and Android that allow you to accept payments without having to deal with all the complexities of PCI compliance and accept a very wide range of payment methods, including local payment methods in many countries. They also provide you with prebuilt UI components that you can customize to build a checkout flow that suits the look and feel of your app.

Pricing: Stripe charges 2.9% plus 30¢ per transaction, plus an additional 1% fee for international cards and an additional 1% if a currency conversion is required.

They offer SDKs for iOS and Android to handle payments and accept a wide range of payment methods, including local payment methods in many countries. However, although Braintree provides a prebuilt drop-in UI that you can use for checkout, it is not customizable and you will need to build your own if it does not fit your app.

Pricing: Braintree also charges 2.9% plus 30¢ per transaction, plus an additional 1% fee for international cards and an additional 1% if a currency conversion is required.

Adyen

Adyen is another popular payment solution that supports iOS and Android. They accept a wide range of payment methods although not as much as Braintree and Stripe do.
