in app purchase android with adobe air

Question

I need to write an app for Android with Adobe AIR with payments capabilities. So I want to give user ability to buy some products in application. In iOS - there is In App Purchase, in Android - Google checkout. So the question is: can I use google checkout in Adobe AIR? I didn't find any API for this. Am I wrong? Is there any API for this? If no - what can I use for that? Thanx a lot!

Answer 1

This is possible using the Native Extension feature of Adobe AIR. You can read more about how that works here:

Also, there is a extension prebuilt that handles all this for you. Full disclosure, it is a commercial extension and I am the author:

Answer 2

Google checkout isn't accessible from Air applications, there are only SDKs for Java, .NET, PHP and other languages accept Action Script 3.
