I am learning UPS address validation API for my PHP application. Going to use web service version for my integration. However I am not sure whether UPS address validation will work for mobile app or not like iPhone or Android app. Can someone answer me this question in details?
Thanks in advance.
To add to Matt's comment, UPS address verification and official postal (e.g. USPS, Canada Post) addresses can be different so, in addition to the terms of service, make sure you are pulling from the right data.

This question has been asked before. Here, here and here.
The problem is that they did not make the right question or the solution given was somewhat shallow.
I ´ll be as specific as I can.
The Goal
I want get the user´s contact e-mail and not the account e-mail. Two different things. :)
Some users leave their email on the contact button. It´s public.
My goal is to make a software that can extract e-mails, but for now, only extracting one e-mail from one single account will be more than enough to have my MVP going.
here is an example below on how instagram let users share their e-mail.
The Problem
It only shows in app :( If it were to be shown on the browser as well, it would be a walk in the park. The contact button that has the e-mail and phone number does not show in the browser.
**The Good Part*
There is some solutions to it.
This guy has a figured it out using the API, but I don´t quite understand how he did it. The downside is that all solution wants to sell you a product.
The focus of this company lies on extracting instagram e-mails and it seems legit.
Last but not least, this dude is using appium to extract those juicy e-mails. The third won´t really work for me because it seems too messy. Having to use a android emulator will be my last resort.
Thanks for helping and happy new year.
Set up mitmproxy on your machine.
Set up the certificates on your phone and use your machine as the gateway.
Analyze the traffic.
Reverse engineer the API (to log in and get info about user profiles) and then use it in your Ruby/Python/whatever code.
I'm developing an application with react native and I am using this library
https://github.com/tipsi/tipsi-stripe in order to use Google Pay with stripe integration.
I already linked the test key from stripe and the merchant Id from play store.
I have a serious issue though. After running the app, when the Google Pay popup form opens,
i get the Google Pay dialog but with a message
"Unrecognized app. Please make sure you trust this app
before proceeding".
However when I enter a test card and press continue I get an additional error that says
Transaction declined: invalid payment method. [OR-CCSEH-05]
I would appreciate any help.
See image below
When testing Google Pay, you actually use real credit cards. That said, I'd be doubly positive you've got your environment set to use Test Mode in Google Pay. Outside of Tipsi, you'd usually set that with the WalletConstants.ENVIRONMENT_TEST constant. Hope that helps!
i've contacted google regarding this case, as i've been facing similar one and upon it's inspection i've received the following reply:
Thanks for being Patient. I apologize for the inconvenience caused.
Upon checking, I understand that you're unable to add testing cards. I would like to inform you that testing cards can't be added to Google Payment profile as payment Method.
Thanks!
upon further investigation by Stripe it self i've been assured:
For a bit of context on how Google Pay works to test payments. When you’re using your test mode API keys, the actual details of the card are ignored, and they get replaced with the Stripe 4242 test card. To test authentication you will not be able to add the test cards to your Google Pay account however there is a work around for this, you add our 3DS test cards to Chrome and use the PaymentRequest button with them (making sure to choose them, and not Google Pay itself). Unfortunately there is no direct method to testing this in your the app.
so setting WalletConstants.ENVIRONMENT_TEST at 5th step of their tutorial should be sufficient and then use your real card.

I am working on an app that requires payment to be collected from customers. I have few questions related to braintree integration with my app. I am actually struggling a bit with the workings of the braintree so thought of checking here.
The PCI compliance is critical so i do not want to store anything in my app or the backend server. Can I achieve this with braintree? I also don’t want customer to retype the credit card information when they come back to the app. As I understand there is a Vault functionality which can do this but I was not sure.
Do I invoke the braintree API from iOS app directly or do I need to first send the credit card information to my backend layer and then invoke the Braintree APIs from backend. I don’t want to transmit anything to my server due to the PCI compliance so I am hoping that I can just invoke the braintree API directly from the iOS APP and when user comes back, again invoke the braintree Vault API from the APP and pull the previously used credit card.
appreciate if anyone can pls. direct me to some kind of architecture / white paper/best practice on this. I went thru the APIs document on braintree site which provides and good API documents but i could not find the high level architecture document on this.
Thanks in advance..
Yes. https://articles.braintreepayments.com/control-panel/vault/overview
Yes use from iOS. https://developers.braintreepayments.com/ios+ruby/start/hello-client
for number three... I'm not sure where to find that. Definitely ask support
I want to build something similar to a poll service for mobile but it doesn't need Facebook.
After Facebook's acqusition, is Parse.com still a viable option if your web app does not need Facebook integration? Could app developers (customers) log in to my backend without a Facebook account?
Is it possible to build premium features with Parse and then charge for them?
Do you own your data when using Parse.com? I.e., can you export it in case you decide to move to another service in the future?
I am hoping someone with experience can shed some light on this. Thank you!

yes,for now.

yes

yes
I'd suggest you always have a backup plan,when using a BAAS.I pity Stackmob users that didnt.You dont know if parse will still be there in 3 years or their features and pricing will change.Never rely on a BAAS on the long run.
Yes parse has standalone login features with username, and password, in addition to twitter, and facebook. They even handle lost password reset's via email as long as the user has the email field entered. You can check if the user's email has been verified via the emailVerified field.
I'm using stripe.com's payment system via parse's cloud code. I will admit this is not a complete drop in feature for parse yet, but maybe in the future. stripe is made for developers, and I find it to be a very powerful payment system. I can answer some basic stripe/parse questions as I have written myself basically a semi-complete API for handling customers, card, and charges.
Is it possible to send a text message from a computer to a cell phone? I'd like to be able to do this with Ruby, not quite sure what it entails. After seeing GrandCentral and Google Voice, it seems like it's not that bad.
Is it possible? How do I get started!
Yes, it's fairly trivial.
Depends on whether you want to pay or not; some providers offer email addresses for each number that is with them, otherwise you can get an account with an SMS gateway (find one in your country, or try clickatell) and then just buy credits. They'll have various interfaces: Email, HTTP, more.
check smsroaming.com it provide services to send sms from website and also have desktop application for it. including iphone, blackberry and facebook application for it.
i hope they will help you to manage sms.
