# PKPaymentAuthorizationController

An object that presents a sheet that prompts the user to authorize a payment request.

```
class PKPaymentAuthorizationController
```

## Overview

After the user authorizes the payment request for a transaction, the delegate is called with a payment token used to authorize the transaction’s payment.

> Important:
> The ``doc://com.apple.passkit/documentation/PassKit/PKPaymentAuthorizationController`` class performs the same role as the ``doc://com.apple.passkit/documentation/PassKit/PKPaymentAuthorizationViewController`` class, but it does not depend on the UIKit framework. This means that the authorization controller can be used in places where a view controller cannot (for example, in watchOS apps or in SiriKit extensions).
