Braintree announced the v.zero [[software development kit|SDK]] in July 2014.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://techcrunch.com/2014/07/09/paypal-makes-good-on-its-braintree-acquisition-with-launch-of-new-developer-tools-the-braintree-v-zero-sdk/|title=PayPal Makes Good On Its Braintree Acquisition With Launch Of New Developer Tools, The Braintree v.zero SDK|last=Perez|first=Sarah|website=TechCrunch|date=9 July 2014 |access-date=2016-04-11}}</ref> It allows the automatic integration of the shopping cart with [[PayPal]] amongst other payment types. [[GitHub]] and [[ParkWhiz]] are among the companies that launched with the v.zero SDK, which supports 'One Touch Payments'. {{Citation needed|date=September 2022}} It does not require those users to create an account on an e-commerce site or enter credit card details every time they want to buy something. The concept of One Touch is based on a prior product called Venmo Touch, which was developed in conjunction with Venmo, the payment service Braintree bought in August 2012. Venmo Touch was the first single-touch mobile buying experience to hit the market.<ref name="readwrite.com">{{Cite web |date=19 August 2014 |title=PayPal Wants You to Never Pull Out Your Credit Card Again |url=http://readwrite.com/2014/08/19/paypal-braintree-one-touch-payments}}</ref>
