<Info>
  **New Kotlin SDK Available**

  It is recommended to use the new [Kotlin SDK](/guides/payments/native/overview) for native Android development.
  It provides native 3DS support, improved performance, and a modern API. This Android SDK (Embed-based) is still supported and maintained for web view implementations.

   token for authenticating to the API.
