#### Monetize Your App with Ease

The Onside Payment SDK lets you integrate in-app purchases and subscriptions into your iOS app. It handles the entire payment flow — from product display to checkout — providing a secure experience for your users while keeping integration simple.

Currently supported payment methods: **Apple Pay** and **Bank Cards**. See [Payment Methods](https://docs.onside.io/sdk/payment-methods).

#### Get Started

* [Building funnels with event tracking](https://docs.onside.io/sdk/attribution/building-funnels-with-event-tracking) (track actions with `Onside.track`)
* [Purchase validation](https://docs.onside.io/sdk/purchasing-and-restoring-purchases#purchase-validation) (server-side verification with the Merchant API)

#### Designed for a Seamless Transition

The Onside Payment SDK is designed to be **highly similar to Apple's native StoreKit framework.** If your team has experience with StoreKit, integration will feel familiar — same delegate patterns, similar queue-based transaction handling, and comparable product request flows.

#### Key Features

* **Familiar & Easy Integration:** Architecture inspired by StoreKit for minimal learning curve.
* **Unified Purchase Flow:** Single process for both one-time purchases and recurring subscriptions.
* **Flexible Payment Processing:** One-stage (immediate charge) and two-stage (authorize then capture) payment support.
* **Clear Responses & Error Handling:** Informative data structures and unified error handling for faster debugging.
* **Future-Ready:** Promotional coupons and large catalog support coming soon.
