// Option 1: With appId (recommended for wallets)
WalletConnectPay.configure(
appId: "your-wcp-id",
logging: true
)

Payment Link Detection
The isPaymentLink utility method detects WalletConnect Pay links by checking for:
pay.hosts (e.g., pay.walletconnect.com)pay=parameter in WalletConnect URIspay_prefix in bare payment IDs
func isPaymentLink(_ string: String) -> Bool {
let lower = string.lowercased()
return lower.contains("pay.") ||
lower.contains("pay=") ||
lower.contains("pay_")
}
Call it wherever your wallet receives a link — from a deep link or a scanned QR code:
// Deep link opened from outside your app (SceneDelegate or AppDelegate)
func scene(_ scene: UIScene, openURLContexts URLContexts: Set<UIOpenURLContext>) {
guard let url = URLContexts.first?.url else { return }
if isPaymentLink(url.absoluteString) {
startPaymentFlow(paymentLink: url.absoluteString)
}
}
// QR code payload
func handleScannedQR(_ content: String) {
if isPaymentLink(content) {
startPaymentFlow(paymentLink: content)
}
}
Payment Flow
The payment flow consists of five main steps:Get Options -> Collect Data (if required) -> Get Actions -> Sign Actions -> Confirm Payment
Get Payment Options
When a user scans a payment QR code or opens a payment link, fetch available payment options:
let paymentLink = "https://pay.walletconnect.com/?pid=pay_abc123..."
// Provide all user's EVM accounts in CAIP-10 format
let accounts = [\
"eip155:1:\(walletAddress)", // Ethereum Mainnet\
"eip155:137:\(walletAddress)", // Polygon\
"eip155:8453:\(walletAddress)", // Base\
"eip155:42161:\(walletAddress)" // Arbitrum\
]
do {
let response = try await WalletConnectPay.instance.getPaymentOptions(
paymentLink: paymentLink,
accounts: accounts
)
// Display merchant info
if let info = response.info {
print("Merchant: \(info.merchant.name)")
print("Amount: \(info.amount.display.assetSymbol) \(info.amount.value)")
}
// Show available payment options to user
for option in response.options {
print("Pay with \(option.amount.display.assetSymbol) on \(option.amount.display.networkName ?? "Unknown")")
}
// Check which options require data collection
for option in response.options {
if option.collectData != nil {
print("Option \(option.id) requires info capture")
}
}
} catch {
print("Failed to get payment options: \(error)")
}
Collect User Data (If Required)
After the user selects an option, check for collectData on it. If present, collect the data before fetching the required actions.
Embedded Data Collection Form
When a payment requires user information (e.g., for Travel Rule compliance), the SDK returns a collectData field on individual payment options. Each option may independently require data collection — some options may require it while others don’t. The form is loaded from selectedOption.collectData.url and embedded in your wallet (a WebView on mobile, an iframe on web). It handles field rendering, validation, Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy acceptance, and submits data directly to the backend.
Recommended Flow
The recommended approach is to display all payment options upfront, then handle data collection only when the user selects an option that requires it:
- Call
getPaymentOptionsand display all available options to the user - Show a visual indicator (e.g., “Info required” badge) on options where
option.collectDatais present - When the user selects an option, check
selectedOption.collectData - If present, load
selectedOption.collectData.urlin the embedded form - Optionally append query parameters to the form URL —
prefill(known user data),theme, andthemeVariables(appearance). See Form URL parameters below. Use proper URL building so existing query parameters are preserved. - Listen for completion messages:
IC_COMPLETE(success) orIC_ERROR(failure) - On
IC_COMPLETE, continue the flow — fetch the required actions, sign, and confirm the payment. Don’t passcollectedDatatoconfirmPayment(); the form submits data directly to the backend.
Decision Matrix
Response collectData |
option.collectData |
Behavior |
|---|---|---|
| present | present | Option requires IC — use option.collectData.url |
| present | null |
Option does NOT require IC (others might) — skip IC for this option |
null |
null |
No IC needed for any option |
Form URL parameters
The form URL accepts the following optional query parameters. Append them to selectedOption.collectData.url before loading it, preserving any existing query parameters.
| Parameter | Format | Description |
|---|---|---|
prefill |
base64url-encoded JSON | Pre-populates known user fields so the user doesn’t re-enter them. Keys must match the required fields from collectData.schema (e.g. fullName, dob, pobAddress). |
theme |
light or dark |
Sets the form’s base color mode. |
themeVariables |
base64url-encoded JSON | Overrides design tokens to match your brand — font, font size, select colors, button border radius, and input border radius. Generate and export this value from the WalletConnect Pay Dashboard. |
collectData.schema is a JSON schema string — parse it and read its required array to discover the field keys for prefill. For example, a required array of ["fullName", "dob", "pobAddress"] maps to a prefill object of { "fullName": "...", "dob": "...", "pobAddress": "..." }.
Customizing the form appearance
theme and themeVariables are optional and independent — pass either, both, or neither:
themeswitches the form betweenlightanddarkbase color modes. Match it to your wallet’s active mode for a seamless transition.themeVariablesapplies brand-level overrides (font, font size, select colors, button border radius, and input border radius). Generate the theme in the WalletConnect Pay Dashboard, export it as a base64url string, and append it to the form URL verbatim — you don’t need to encode it at runtime.
Data Collection Implementation
When selectedOption.collectData.url is present, display the URL in a WKWebView. The WebView handles form rendering, validation, and T&C acceptance.Data Collection Best Practices
- Display prominently: Show the form full-screen or as a prominent modal so users can interact with it easily
- Loading indicator: Show a loading indicator while the form loads
- Handle errors: Listen for
IC_ERRORmessages and display a user-facing error message with an option to retry - External links: Open Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy links in the system browser rather than navigating within the form
- Domain restriction: Only allow navigation to WalletConnect pay domains and HTTPS URLs
- Back navigation: Handle back/dismiss gracefully — confirm cancellation with the user before closing the form mid-flow
- Keyboard behavior: Test that the soft keyboard appears and behaves correctly when users tap on form inputs
- Theme to match your brand: Pass
theme=lightortheme=darkto match your wallet’s active color mode, and apply brand tokens withthemeVariablesexported from the WalletConnect Pay Dashboard. See Form URL parameters.

Best Practices
- Account Format: Always use CAIP-10 format for accounts:
eip155:{chainId}:{address} - Multiple Chains: Provide accounts for all supported chains to maximize payment options
- Signature Order: Maintain the same order of signatures as the actions array
- Error Handling: Always handle errors gracefully and show appropriate user feedback
- Loading States: Show loading indicators during API calls and signing operations
- Expiration: Check
paymentInfo.expiresAtand warn users if time is running low - User Data: Only collect data when
collectDatais present on the selected payment option and you don’t already have the required user data. If you already have the required data, you can submit this without collecting from the user. You must make sure the user accepts WalletConnect Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy before submitting user information to WalletConnect. - WebView Data Collection: When
selectedOption.collectData?.urlis present, display the URL in a WKWebView rather than building native forms. The WebView handles form rendering, validation, and T&C acceptance. - Per-Option Data Collection: When displaying payment options, check each option’s
collectDatafield. Show a visual indicator (e.g., “Info required” badge) on options that require data collection. Only open the WebView when the user selects an option withcollectDatapresent — use the option’scollectData.urlwhich is already scoped to that option’s account.
