Sample code

Create a class (most likely a subclass of UIViewController) that conforms to CardIOPaymentViewControllerDelegate.

// SomeViewController.h

#import "CardIO.h"
@interface SomeViewController : UIViewController<CardIOPaymentViewControllerDelegate>
// ...

Start card.io card scanning:

// SomeViewController.m

- (IBAction)scanCard:(id)sender {
  CardIOPaymentViewController *scanViewController = [[CardIOPaymentViewController alloc] initWithPaymentDelegate:self];
  scanViewController.appToken = @"YOUR_APP_TOKEN_HERE"; // get your app token from the card.io website
  [self presentModalViewController:scanViewController animated:YES];
}

Write delegate methods to receive the card info or a cancellation:

// SomeViewController.m

- (void)userDidCancelPaymentViewController:(CardIOPaymentViewController *)scanViewController {
  NSLog(@"User canceled payment info");
  // Handle user cancellation here...
  [scanViewController dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}

- (void)userDidProvideCreditCardInfo:(CardIOCreditCardInfo *)info inPaymentViewController:(CardIOPaymentViewController *)scanViewController {
  // The full card number is available as info.cardNumber, but don't log that!
  NSLog(@"Received card info. Number: %@, expiry: %02i/%i, cvv: %@.", info.redactedCardNumber, info.expiryMonth, info.expiryYear, info.cvv);
  // Use the card info...
  [scanViewController dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}

Hints & Tips

• Processing images can be memory intensive, so make sure to test that your app properly handles memory warnings.
• For your users' security, obscure your app's cached screenshots.
