What is Cashfree Integrity
Whenever an application is installed from any regulated store such as Play Store, or App Store, Cashfree Integrity checks if the application is installed from regulated stores and ensures their compliance and makes sure the application is not tampered by any middle man. Cashfree Integrity works by extracting the package name of the installer and compares it with authorised sources and allows the transaction to flow through. In case the installer package is not from verified stores, Cashfree Integrity blocks the transaction and your customer will not be able to perform that transaction.Advantages
Cashfree Integrity shields all the complexities of checking the installer package ensuring transactions are passed only from valid applications installed from verified stores. This implementation streamlines the payment flow by enabling us to block payments directly if the aforementioned checks fail. Cashfree Payments also supports additional app stores, including the Samsung Galaxy Store, Indus Appstore, Vivo App Store, Xiaomi GetApps, OPPO App Market, OnePlus App Market, and Amazon Appstore.If your mobile application is distributed through an app store other than the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store, you must whitelist the installer package name of that app store before you can use Checkout in the production environment.To whitelist the installer package name for your account, submit a request through the Support Form. Our support team will review your request and whitelist the installer package name.
FAQs
Can I test my app if it is not yet published on the Play Store or App Store?
Can I test my app if it is not yet published on the Play Store or App Store?
Yes. In the sandbox environment, Cashfree Integrity does not enforce store verification, so you can test without a Play Store or App Store listing. For production testing, distribute your app through the Play Store’s internal testing track instead of sideloading the APK directly. This satisfies Cashfree Integrity’s store verification requirement without requiring a public release. For setup instructions, see Integrity prod setup.
