Tabby Payment Gateway in Swift

In this blog, we are going to learn about the Tabby Payment gateway in Swift. Tabby Payment gateway is widely used in the United Arab Emirates. Payment plays a very important role in transactions using your mobile application. So, in order to connect with the local customers, we need to use the payment in our iOS app which is common to the local user.
Please follow the below steps for the integration of the Tabby Payment in Swift.

STEPS FOR INTEGRATION

Step – 1

Please create a pod file and install the pod mention below in your swift project.

pod 'AnyCodable'
pod 'Alamofire','~>4.9.1', :inhibit_warnings => true
pod 'NotificationBannerSwift'

pod 'AnyCodable'

pod 'Alamofire','~>4.9.1', :inhibit_warnings => true

pod 'NotificationBannerSwift'

Step – 2

Now create a view controller and add the button for initialization of the payment gateway.

@IBOutlet
    private var paylaterButton: UIButton! {
        didSet {
            paylaterButton.backgroundColor = UIColor(red:0.24, green:0.93, blue:0.75, alpha:1.0)
            paylaterButton.contentEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: 12, left: 12, bottom: 12, right: 12)
            paylaterButton.isEnabled = false
            paylaterButton.setTitleColor(.gray, for: .disabled)
            paylaterButton.setTitleColor(.black, for: .normal)
        }
    }
    
    @IBOutlet
    private var installmentsButton: UIButton! {
        didSet {
            installmentsButton.backgroundColor = UIColor(red:0.24, green:0.93, blue:0.75, alpha:1.0)
            installmentsButton.contentEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: 12, left: 12, bottom: 12, right: 12)
            installmentsButton.setTitleColor(.gray, for: .disabled)
            installmentsButton.setTitleColor(.black, for: .normal)
            
            installmentsButton.isEnabled = false
        }
    }
    
    @IBAction
    private func didTabButton(_ sender: Any) {
        switch sender as? UIButton {
        case installmentsButton:
            selectedProduct = .installments
        case paylaterButton:
            selectedProduct = .payLater
        default:
            return
        }
        self.performSegue(withIdentifier: "showDetail", sender: self)
    }

@IBOutlet

private var paylaterButton: UIButton! {

didSet {

paylaterButton.backgroundColor = UIColor(red:0.24, green:0.93, blue:0.75, alpha:1.0)

paylaterButton.contentEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: 12, left: 12, bottom: 12, right: 12)

paylaterButton.isEnabled = false

paylaterButton.setTitleColor(.gray, for: .disabled)

paylaterButton.setTitleColor(.black, for: .normal)

}

@IBOutlet

private var installmentsButton: UIButton! {

didSet {

installmentsButton.backgroundColor = UIColor(red:0.24, green:0.93, blue:0.75, alpha:1.0)

installmentsButton.contentEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: 12, left: 12, bottom: 12, right: 12)

installmentsButton.setTitleColor(.gray, for: .disabled)

installmentsButton.setTitleColor(.black, for: .normal)

installmentsButton.isEnabled = false

}

@IBAction

private func didTabButton(_ sender: Any) {

switch sender as? UIButton {

case installmentsButton:

selectedProduct = .installments

case paylaterButton:

selectedProduct = .payLater

default:

return

}

self.performSegue(withIdentifier: "showDetail", sender: self)

}

Step – 3

Now add the session function for the Tabby payment gateway and call it while loading the view controller.

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
        
    createCheckoutSession()
}

override func viewDidLoad() {

super.viewDidLoad()

createCheckoutSession()

}

func createCheckoutSession() {

Step – 4

Now adding the required file

Step – 5

Now create a new view controller for creating the checkout session and a WebView for creating the session and integrate the javascript for listening to the events on the Webview.

Step – 6

Using the above function we can listen to the event trigger from the backend and navigate and perform an action. Please refer here for a sample project.
