KakaoPay and NaverPay do not appear when calling presentPaymentSheet

[im-jihoon]

Describe the bug

When initializing the Stripe PaymentSheet in a React Native application, payment methods such as Kakao Pay and Naver Pay do not appear in the sheet UI — even though the backend includes these payment methods in the payment_method_types when creating a PaymentIntent.

Only card payments (and sometimes Link) appear, while alternative Korean payment methods do not show up.

This makes it unclear whether the PaymentSheet supports regional redirect-based payment methods.

App.tsx Code

const { paymentIntent } = await photoReservationService.createPaymentIntent({
  viewLanguage: language,
  reservationId: reservation.id,
});

const { error } = await initPaymentSheet({
  merchantDisplayName: 'store',
  paymentIntentClientSecret: paymentIntent.clientSecret,
  returnURL: `${ENV.APP.SCHEME}://stripe-redirect`,
});
          
// stripe payment
const paymentResponse = await presentPaymentSheet();

Expected behavior

Kakao Pay and Naver Pay should appear as selectable payment methods in the PaymentSheet as long as:

They are included in payment_method_types on the PaymentIntent

The currency is krw

The account has these payment methods enabled

Device Information

Smartphone

• Device: iPhone / Android
• OS: iOS 17 / Android 14
• Stripe RN SDK: @stripe/stripe-react-native@0.57.0
• PaymentSheet version (via SDK): latest at time of testing

Additional context

• Backend has confirmed that kakaopay and naver_pay are enabled
• Dashboard has these payment methods enabled
• PaymentIntent is created with correct currency (krw)
• React Native app uses presentPaymentSheet() instead of confirmPayment()

The documentation for Kakao Pay shows Direct API / Checkout examples but does not explicitly clarify whether PaymentSheet supports these regional redirect-based payment methods.

Hi @im-jihoon, thanks for reaching out.

Unfortunately these payment methods are not yet supported within payment sheet, which is why they aren't showing up. We appreciate your suggestion. We revisit our roadmap periodically and will keep this idea in mind.

@wooj-stripe Thanks for the reply. I hope this payment method will be supported soon.
