# Android framework

The Android framework integration steps help you to integrate payment acceptance into your Android app.

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Integrating with the Android framework enables your app to interact with the IDTech card reader for payment processing.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
The Android framework sends a JSON Web Token (JWT) through the public listener without handling the card data.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
You can use the /rest/v2/mobile/transactions/sale endpoint to submit a JSON Web Token (JWT) and process a payment in your Android app.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Find the latest .jar files in the [android-idtech-sdk/sdk/lib](https://github.com/clearent/android-idtech-sdk/tree/master/sdk/lib) folder.
{% endhint %}

When you integrate the Android framework into your app, you might encounter the following:

* The card reader uses the IDTech framework for communication when the Android framework applies EMV configuration to it.
* The configuration process may take some time and can occasionally fail, but these issues are manageable with retry logic.
* The Android framework saves the card reader’s serial number after a successful initial configuration to avoid reconfiguring it later.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Check that the [IDTech VP3300](/guides/mobile-emv/idtech-vp3300.md) is connected to your Android app before starting the payment process.
{% endhint %}

See the following articles to integrate the iOS framework:

* [Integrate Android framework](/guides/mobile-emv/android-framework/integrate-android-framework.md)
* [Disable EMV configuration](/guides/mobile-emv/android-framework/disable-emv-configuration.md)
* [Optional settings](/guides/mobile-emv/android-framework/optional-settings.md)

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.xplorpay.com/guides/mobile-emv/android-framework.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
