I have a client that wants an app built for a restaurant, so that customers can order on a android tablet, and as well, pay for their meal with their credit card through the app. Is anything like this possible with corona?

Hi, officially … not at present. However there may be a way to do this. you just have to be so careful regarding security. [import]uid: 84637 topic_id: 20884 reply_id: 82287[/import]
On Android maybe they can use pay via Paypal. Teh Paypal clients pay with their simple mail address and the other ones by credit card under Paypal SSL.
Just ideia, sorry. [import]uid: 89165 topic_id: 20884 reply_id: 82285[/import]
Yea for sure, would it be possible to send the customers information via the app to a web app of sorts and let the web app handle the processing? [import]uid: 19620 topic_id: 20884 reply_id: 82291[/import]
Thats the way I was thinking yeah. Unfortunately I don’t have any experience or links to this kind of thing for you [import]uid: 84637 topic_id: 20884 reply_id: 82296[/import]
I think that your idea is possible. IMO. [import]uid: 89165 topic_id: 20884 reply_id: 82297[/import]

You might try this service called Stripe (http://www.stripe.com). They allow you to accept credit cards without having a merchant account. Seems very straight forward.
They have an API you can hook into with support for various languages, so if you have experience in PHP or Ruby or any of the other supported languages you could probably create a Lua wrapper for Stripe with relative ease. [import]uid: 52430 topic_id: 20884 reply_id: 82388[/import]
