Note: This release is in preview. Features described here don’t become generally available until the latest general availability date that Salesforce announces for this release. Before then, and where features are noted as beta, pilot, or developer preview, we can’t guarantee general availability within any particular time frame or at all. Make your purchase decisions only on the basis of generally available products and features.

Compatibility and Requirements

PaymentsService is a JavaScript module that provides an API to Lightning web components to make mobile hardware and platform (operating system) features available in JavaScript. It requires access to device hardware and device platform APIs. This access is only available when PaymentsService runs within a compatible Salesforce mobile app. It does not and cannot function when running in a standard web browser, whether the browser runs on a desktop or mobile device.
PaymentsService is available in Lightning apps distributed using:
  • Salesforce Field Service app

PaymentsService is fully functional when used in a Lightning app or Lightning site that’s run from a compatible Salesforce mobile app on a compatible iOS or Android mobile device. See Field Service Mobile App Requirements, or the requirements page for your target mobile app for specific device and operating system requirements.

PaymentsService is not fully available when running on other devices, such as a desktop, or when running in a web browser, even on a mobile device. It requires one of the listed apps. The PaymentsService API is accessible in Lightning Experience on all devices, so your code won’t fail due to missing functions. However, when your app runs in a browser—desktop or mobile—it can use only PaymentsService constants and utility functions. Attempting any payment-related operation results in failure.
