Hello
The only way to do this would be to create a CashApp PaymentMethod server-side and create/confirm a PaymentIntent server-side (and provide a return_url). The response to that would include a redirect URL where your customer could go to compete the CashApp payment. So you would then need to create your own QR code on the client that uses that redirect URL.
Overall, mobile really isn't designed for this.

Hmmm... So then what is the QR that is generated on the desktop side? Is that a Cash App payment QR or a redirect URL?
oak quarry
I mean it is both -- it is a redirect into the user's CashApp app where they authenticate
Really our integration just isn't set up where you would scan mobile to mobile.
pallid anchor
so there's no way to directly grab that QR code that stripe is created?
oak quarry
No that's not possible. You could show that QR code in a webview on your mobile app if you want to go that route

if I was using a WisePOS E terminal out of the box, I couldn't take a cash app payment?
oak quarry
No we don't support CashApp on Terminal

When we converted from Square to Stripe, we needed a way to take face to face payment to replace the square POS app. So this is what we built, but we need to be able to take Cash App.
So if we built a QR code, the URL we send them to would have to be a page we build, that takes their payment
oak quarry
No, if you do what I described above then we give you a redirect URL that would send the customer to CashApp to authenticate the payment
"What I described above" meaning a server-side creation of the PaymentMethod and server-side creation/confirmation of the PaymentIntent
You can quickly test this out in test mode and see the URL I'm talking about
pallid anchor
ah gotcha. ok we'll get the URL from you. And we just create the QR code on our side.
oak quarry
Yeah that would be the way to do this if you want to do mobile -> mobile
pallid anchor
the difference is, the QR code they are scanning.. they should scan from their camera app, NOT the Cash App app.
