JavaScript web button

Google Wallet API enables your users to add an object to Google Wallet from the web. Users can add their cards directly from your website.

This reference provides details about the HTML element g:savetoandroidpay that renders a Google Wallet API button as well as the JSON Web Token that describes your web service to Google.

Google Wallet API JavaScript

To automatically parse g:savetoandroidpay HTML tags on load include the standard JavaScript

<script src="https://apis.google.com/js/platform.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

For AJAX applications and explicit rendering of Google Wallet API buttons, include the "parsetags": "explicit" parameter.

<script src="https://apis.google.com/js/platform.js" type="text/javascript">
  {"parsetags": "explicit"}
</script>

g:savetoandroidpay HTML tag

The g:savetoandroidpay namespace tag defines the placement and various attributes of the Add to Google Wallet button. Use this tag if you're rendering HTML and JWTs server side.

<g:savetoandroidpay jwt="JWT" onsuccess="successHandler" onfailure="failureHandler" />
Field Type Required Description
height String N Height of button to display. Possible values are: small (30px high) and standard (38px high). The height defaults to small. Refer to Google Wallet API buttons to see samples of buttons with different height settings.
jwt String Y Google Wallet API JWT.
onsuccess String N String name of the save success callback handler function.
onfailure String N String name of the save failure callback handler function. This function is passed an error object containing an errorCode and errorMessage.
onprovidejwt String N String name of the provide JWT handler function. The purpose of this function is to intercept and potentially manipulate the JWT data before the object is added to Google Wallet. This function takes in no parameters and must return the JWT as String. When implementing the event handler, the original JWT data can be retrieved under field this.getOpenParams().renderData.userParams.jwt.
size String N Width of button to display. You can set size to matchparent to have the width match the width of the parent element. Or, leave size undefined so that the width stretches to fit the width of the text setting. Refer to Google Wallet API buttons to see samples of buttons with different size settings.
text String N Deprecated
textsize String N When textsize=large is specified, displays dramatically increased text size and button size, for cases with special UI requirements.
theme String N Theme of button to display. Possible values are: dark and light. The default theme is dark. Refer to Google Wallet API buttons to see samples of buttons with different theme settings.

Google Wallet API JWT

The Google Wallet API JWT defines the objects and classes to save.

Localization

The language in the JavaScript button changes based on the following criteria:

  1. If the user is logged into Google, the button renders in the preferred language given in the user's Google account profile. A user can read Change language to learn how to change their Google account's preferred language.
  2. If the user isn't logged into Google, the button uses the ACCEPT-LANGUAGE value in the HTTP header.

If you notice the button doesn't render in the correct language based on the logic above, or if the wording is unnatural, contact our support team.
