The component referenced facilitates the integration of a payment processing platform’s functionalities into applications developed for Apple’s mobile operating system. It furnishes developers with tools and libraries necessary to securely handle payment transactions, manage customer data, and implement various commerce-related features within their iOS apps. As an illustration, a mobile commerce application might employ this resource to process credit card payments during a product purchase.
Utilizing this resource streamlines the payment integration process, reducing the complexities associated with direct communication with payment gateways. This approach enhances application security by minimizing the developer’s direct handling of sensitive financial information. Historically, manual integration was prone to errors and vulnerabilities, leading to increased security risks. The adoption of such tools has significantly reduced these risks, enabling developers to focus on core application functionality while maintaining PCI compliance.
