This is a feature in one of my upcoming templates, but was super excited to share this! Many have talked about other payment options.
Using the new tab visibility feature (thanks Glide team!) and inspiration from @Lucas_Pires genius for onboarding, I was able to create a forced checkout screen after users confirm their cart. Two options include PayPal and CashApp payment based on their URL parameters.
Will upload a video for anyone that wants a tutorial.
I haven’t done a deep dive to see if you can connect submitted payments to a Google sheet, I don’t think you can though, at least not for Cash App. PayPal probably so.
It would be killer to have it write back to the sheet! Specifically for this shop template, the user wanted to accept Cash App payments and had no problem listing submitted payments as “pending” until they could verify the payment.
As I continue working, if I do find a solution this community will be the first to know!
I just found out https://thrivecart.com/ works in Web View and it also sends data back to Google Sheets. It could be the perfect Checkout page using which we can confirm payments from users too.
Will be integrating this in a test app very soon.
Lisa, did you get PayPal to work embedding it in the webview? Or is it done outside?
How do you send over the shipping address to Paypal? Or that stays in the app?
I have PayPal open as an external link. I haven’t tried the embed view. The shipping address stays within the app. The toggle you see is a built in feature to pull in the user’s address if they already filled out the info in their profile.
