Integration of payment gateway for Android

I tried to integrate payment gateway using PayPal SDK. It works fine. But what I want is, is there any way to avoid the default UI of paypal payment?

I mean paypal SDK opens an UI to input credit card info (card number, expiry date, CCV) to purchase something. I already have those information. So I just want to avoid to input those information again.

Is there any way to pass those information using any method instead of paypals UI?

Thanks in advance.

To directly answer the question, you could use your own UI with Paypals API directly. See instructions here: https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/

The issue and why you are seeing it is because the paypal SDK starts a paypal service and that service is what actually processes the payment for you and why you get their UI. Generally as NasaGeek said it's more comforting to the user to get that known interface to enter their information. But that's a design choice for you to make...

In researching this I found that using a RESTful API is how Dwolla was doing it in their SDK: If you look at other payment SDKs on Android, such as Dwolla they do it with a request and response that you handle so you likely wouldn't be stuck with their UI. https://github.com/therockstorm/dwolla-java-sdk
