Janina,
Today we announced FPWDs of the Web Payments Working Group:
First Public Working Draft of Payment Request API Specifications
https://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/5371
On behalf of the Web Payments Working Group, and per our charter [1]),
I’d like to ask for WAI APA WG review of these early drafts:
* Payment Request API
http://www.w3.org/TR/payment-request/
This specification describes a web API to allow merchants (i.e., web
sites selling physical or digital goods) to easily accept payments
from different payment methods with minimal integration. User
agents (e.g. browsers) will facilitate the payment flow between
merchant and user.
* Payment Method Identifiers
http://www.w3.org/TR/payment-method-id/
This document defines payment method identifier strings so that
components in the payment ecosystem can determine which parties
support which payment methods.
* Basic Card Payment
http://www.w3.org/TR/payment-method-basic-card/
This specification describes the data formats used by the Payment
Request API to support payment by payment cards such as credit or
debit cards.
We also announced a FAQ to go with the specs:

Thank you,
Ian
