The WalletConnect Pay SDK is a Kotlin library that enables payment functionality for Android wallet applications. This SDK provides a seamless payment solution through a native provider architecture powered by Yttrium (Rust FFI).
Requirements
- Min SDK: 23 (Android 6.0)
- Target SDK: 36
- JVM Target: 11
As a wallet provider, you would first need to obtain an API key from WalletConnect. You can do this by filling out this form and getting in touch with our team.
Installation
Add the WalletConnect Pay SDK to your project’s build.gradle.kts file:
dependencies {
implementation("com.walletconnect:pay:1.0.0")
}
The version shown above may not be the latest. Check the GitHub releases for the most recent version.
Configuration
Initialize the SDK in your Application class or before any payment operations:
import com.walletconnect.pay.Pay
import com.walletconnect.pay.WalletConnectPay
WalletConnectPay.initialize(
Pay.SdkConfig(
apiKey = "your-api-key",
projectId = "your-project-id",
packageName = "com.your.app"
)
)
Don’t have an API key? Fill out this form and get in touch with our team to obtain an API key.
Configuration Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|
apiKey | String | Yes | Your WalletConnect Pay API key |
projectId | String | Yes | Your WalletConnect Cloud project ID |
packageName | String | Yes | Your application’s package name |
The SDK will throw IllegalStateException if already initialized. Call initialize() only once.
Supported Networks
WalletConnect Pay currently supports the following networks with USDC:
| Network | Chain ID | CAIP-10 Format |
|---|
| Ethereum | 1 | eip155:1:{address} |
| Base | 8453 | eip155:8453:{address} |
| Optimism | 10 | eip155:10:{address} |
| Polygon | 137 | eip155:137:{address} |
| Arbitrum | 42161 | eip155:42161:{address} |
Support for all EVM chains, Solana, and additional native and non-native assets is coming soon. Include accounts for all supported networks to maximize payment options for your users.
Payment Flow
The payment flow consists of five main steps:
Get Options → Get Actions → Sign Actions → Collect Data → Confirm Payment
Get Payment Options
When a user scans a payment QR code or opens a payment link, fetch available payment options:val result = WalletConnectPay.getPaymentOptions(
paymentLink = "https://pay.walletconnect.com/pay_123",
accounts = listOf(
"eip155:1:$walletAddress", // Ethereum Mainnet
"eip155:137:$walletAddress", // Polygon
"eip155:8453:$walletAddress", // Base
"eip155:42161:$walletAddress" // Arbitrum
)
)
result.onSuccess { response ->
val paymentId = response.paymentId
val options = response.options
val paymentInfo = response.info
val collectDataAction = response.collectDataAction
// Display merchant info
paymentInfo?.let {
println("Merchant: ${it.merchant.name}")
println("Amount: ${it.amount.display?.assetSymbol} ${it.amount.value}")
}
// Show available payment options to user
options.forEach { option ->
println("Pay with ${option.amount.display?.assetSymbol} on ${option.amount.display?.networkName}")
}
}.onFailure { error ->
// Handle error
}
Get Required Actions
After the user selects a payment option, get the wallet RPC actions needed to complete the payment:val actionsResult = WalletConnectPay.getRequiredPaymentActions(
paymentId = paymentId,
optionId = selectedOption.id
)
actionsResult.onSuccess { actions ->
actions.forEach { action ->
when (action) {
is Pay.RequiredAction.WalletRpc -> {
val rpcAction = action.action
// rpcAction.chainId - e.g., "eip155:8453"
// rpcAction.method - e.g., "eth_signTypedData_v4" or "personal_sign"
// rpcAction.params - JSON string with signing parameters
}
}
}
}.onFailure { error ->
// Handle error
}
Sign Actions
Sign each action using your wallet’s signing implementation:val signatures = actions.map { action ->
when (action) {
is Pay.RequiredAction.WalletRpc -> {
val rpc = action.action
when (rpc.method) {
"eth_signTypedData_v4" -> wallet.signTypedData(rpc.chainId, rpc.params)
"personal_sign" -> wallet.personalSign(rpc.chainId, rpc.params)
else -> throw UnsupportedOperationException("Unsupported method: ${rpc.method}")
}
}
}
}
Signatures must be in the same order as the actions array.
Collect User Data (If Required)
Some payments require collecting additional user information. Check for collectDataAction in the payment options response:result.onSuccess { response ->
val collectedData = response.collectDataAction?.let { collectAction ->
collectAction.fields.map { field ->
// Collect data from user based on field type
val value = when (field.fieldType) {
Pay.CollectDataFieldType.TEXT -> getUserTextInput(field.name)
Pay.CollectDataFieldType.DATE -> getUserDateInput(field.name) // Format: "YYYY-MM-DD"
}
Pay.CollectDataFieldResult(
id = field.id,
value = value
)
}
}
}
Confirm Payment
Submit the signatures and collected data to complete the payment:val confirmResult = WalletConnectPay.confirmPayment(
paymentId = paymentId,
optionId = selectedOption.id,
signatures = signatures,
collectedData = collectedData // Optional, if collectDataAction was present
)
confirmResult.onSuccess { response ->
when (response.status) {
Pay.PaymentStatus.SUCCEEDED -> {
// Payment completed successfully
}
Pay.PaymentStatus.PROCESSING -> {
// Payment is being processed
// response.pollInMs indicates when to check again
}
Pay.PaymentStatus.FAILED -> {
// Payment failed
}
Pay.PaymentStatus.EXPIRED -> {
// Payment expired
}
Pay.PaymentStatus.REQUIRES_ACTION -> {
// Additional action needed
}
}
}.onFailure { error ->
// Handle error
}
Complete Example
Here’s a complete implementation example using a ViewModel:
import com.walletconnect.pay.Pay
import com.walletconnect.pay.WalletConnectPay
import kotlinx.coroutines.launch
class PaymentViewModel : ViewModel() {
fun initializeSdk() {
WalletConnectPay.initialize(
Pay.SdkConfig(
apiKey = "your-api-key",
projectId = "your-project-id",
packageName = "com.your.app"
)
)
}
fun processPayment(paymentLink: String, walletAddress: String) {
viewModelScope.launch {
// Step 1: Get payment options
val optionsResult = WalletConnectPay.getPaymentOptions(
paymentLink = paymentLink,
accounts = listOf(
"eip155:1:$walletAddress",
"eip155:137:$walletAddress",
"eip155:8453:$walletAddress"
)
)
optionsResult.onSuccess { response ->
val paymentId = response.paymentId
val selectedOption = response.options.first()
// Step 2: Get required actions
val actionsResult = WalletConnectPay.getRequiredPaymentActions(
paymentId = paymentId,
optionId = selectedOption.id
)
actionsResult.onSuccess { actions ->
// Step 3: Sign actions
val signatures = signActions(actions)
// Step 4: Collect data if required
val collectedData = response.collectDataAction?.let {
collectUserData(it.fields)
}
// Step 5: Confirm payment
val confirmResult = WalletConnectPay.confirmPayment(
paymentId = paymentId,
optionId = selectedOption.id,
signatures = signatures,
collectedData = collectedData
)
confirmResult.onSuccess { confirmation ->
handlePaymentStatus(confirmation.status)
}.onFailure { error ->
handleError(error)
}
}.onFailure { error ->
handleError(error)
}
}.onFailure { error ->
handleError(error)
}
}
}
private suspend fun signActions(actions: List<Pay.RequiredAction>): List<String> {
return actions.map { action ->
when (action) {
is Pay.RequiredAction.WalletRpc -> {
// Implement signing logic using your wallet
signWithWallet(action.action)
}
}
}
}
private fun handlePaymentStatus(status: Pay.PaymentStatus) {
when (status) {
Pay.PaymentStatus.SUCCEEDED -> showSuccess()
Pay.PaymentStatus.PROCESSING -> showProcessing()
Pay.PaymentStatus.FAILED -> showFailure()
Pay.PaymentStatus.EXPIRED -> showExpired()
Pay.PaymentStatus.REQUIRES_ACTION -> { /* Handle additional actions */ }
}
}
}

Troubleshooting
JNA Dependency Conflicts
If you encounter JNA-related errors (e.g., UnsatisfiedLinkError or class loading issues), you may need to explicitly configure the JNA dependency:
// build.gradle.kts
implementation("com.walletconnect:pay:1.0.0") {
exclude(group = "net.java.dev.jna", module = "jna")
}
implementation("net.java.dev.jna:jna:5.17.0@aar")
This ensures the correct Android-specific JNA variant is used.
ProGuard Rules
If you’re using ProGuard or R8, the SDK’s consumer ProGuard rules are automatically included. No additional configuration is required.
Best Practices
-
Initialize once: Call
initialize() only once, typically in Application.onCreate()
-
Account Format: Always use CAIP-10 format for accounts:
eip155:{chainId}:{address}
-
Multiple Chains: Provide accounts for all supported chains to maximize payment options
-
Signature Order: Maintain the same order of signatures as the actions array
-
Error Handling: Always handle errors gracefully and show appropriate user feedback
-
Thread Safety: Events are delivered on IO dispatcher; update UI on main thread
-
Cleanup: Call
shutdown() when SDK is no longer needed
