Integrate Razorpay checkout in your Android app

The Razorpay Android SDK embeds a native checkout experience directly into your Android app. You initialize the SDK with an order created on your server, open the checkout, and handle the result through a callback interface.

Add the dependency

Add the Razorpay Checkout SDK to your module-level build.gradle file:

build.gradle

dependencies {
    implementation 'com.razorpay:checkout:1.6.40'
}

From version 1.6.22 onwards, the SDK is written in Kotlin. Make sure the Kotlin standard library is included in your project. Most modern Android projects include it by default.

From version 1.6.40 onwards, the SDK auto-updates itself. You no longer need to manually bump the version for minor updates.

PCI compliance requirements

The Razorpay Android SDK requires TLS 1.1 or TLS 1.2 for all network communication. Devices running Android 4.0 (API level 14) and below do not support TLS 1.2 by default. If you need to support those devices, enable TLS explicitly using a custom SSLSocketFactory.

Integration steps

Create an order on your server

Before opening checkout, create an order using the Razorpay API from your backend. Return the order_id to your app. See the web integration guide for a server-side example — the order creation API is the same across all platforms.

Implement the checkout in your Activity

Implement PaymentResultListener in your Activity or Fragment, preload the SDK in onCreate, and open the checkout when you are ready.

CheckoutActivity.kt

import com.razorpay.Checkout
import com.razorpay.PaymentResultListener

class CheckoutActivity : AppCompatActivity(), PaymentResultListener {

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        Checkout.preload(applicationContext)
    }

    fun startPayment() {
        val checkout = Checkout()
        checkout.setKeyID("rzp_test_YOUR_KEY_ID")

        val options = JSONObject()
        options.put("name", "Your Business")
        options.put("description", "Order #12345")
        options.put("order_id", "order_IluGWxBm9U8zJ8")
        options.put("currency", "USD")
        options.put("amount", "50000")

        checkout.open(this, options)
    }

    override fun onPaymentSuccess(razorpayPaymentId: String) {
        // Payment succeeded — verify the signature on your server
    }

    override fun onPaymentError(code: Int, response: String?) {
        // Payment failed or was cancelled
    }
}

Call Checkout.preload(applicationContext) in onCreate to initialize the SDK in the background. This reduces the time to display checkout when the customer taps the payment button.

Verify the payment signature on your server

After onPaymentSuccess is called, send the razorpayPaymentId along with the order_id and razorpay_signature to your server for verification. Use the same signature verification logic described in the web integration guide.

Always verify the payment signature on your server before fulfilling an order. The onPaymentSuccess callback alone does not confirm that the payment is authentic.
