Learn how to use Web Payments SDK with the Payments API, so you can take payments with Square on your website. This is a two-step process:
1. Add Web Payments SDK to your web client and set it up to generate a single-use token.
2. Use the Payments API to create a payment using the single-use token you got from Web Payments SDK.
We walk you through the Web Payments Quickstart application to show how you can get the Web Payments SDK to work with a backend to take a payment. We also demonstrate how to support multiple payment types using the same exact backend. Web Payments SDK can support credit or debit card, ACH, gift cards, and digital wallets (google pay & apple pay).
