About Braintree Payments

Braintree is a payment processor and payment gateway that enables businesses to accept online, in-app, and in-person payments through a virtual terminal/point-of-sale system. The platform provides an API for flexible payment integration.

Braintree offers online and in-app payment solutions for businesses, providing seamless payment integration across multiple platforms. The service supports various programming languages and mobile platforms, with client libraries for Ruby, Python, PHP, Java, .NET, and Node.js.

Key features include the v.zero SDK with One Touch Payments, which simplifies transaction processes by eliminating repeated account creation and credit card entry. Braintree is compatible with major e-commerce platforms like BigCommerce, WooCommerce, and Magento, and previously supported Bitcoin transactions through a Coinbase partnership.

The platform aims to streamline payment processing for businesses by offering flexible, integrated payment solutions across web and mobile environments.

In 2013 Braintree was acquired by PayPal
