November 2023 Changelog

This November, Basis Theory introduced several enhancements geared toward expanding our Payment Stack capabilities. With a focus on providing adaptable payment solutions for Merchants and Fintechs, we're excited to unveil significant strides in React Native integration and anti-fraud functionalities.

Now Collect Cards with React Native

We're excited to share the latest addition to our suite of secure data handling tools - Basis Theory Elements for React Native. These Elements serve as a shield, enabling developers to collect and reveal sensitive data seamlessly within their applications while removing PCI requirements. All without compromising an application's user experience. By integrating our Elements SDK into React Native applications, developers can build input components, ensuring the secure collection of credit cards without direct exposure to plaintext data.

With our Elements SDK integrated, React Native developers can build customized forms using Element input components, including CardElement for credit card data and TextElement for textual data, all while ensuring that sensitive information remains tokenized and securely stored within Basis Theory. Additionally, our Elements offer extensive configuration options, empowering developers to tailor input masking, validation, and transformation rules to suit their unique data collection needs.
