The W3C <a href=
"https://www.w3.org/TR/2021/PR-payment-request-20210930/">published
Payment Request API 1.0</a> as a Proposed Recommendation in September
2021. Since then, W3C has been working to resolve two Formal Objections
from W3C Members; see the <a href=
"https://www.w3.org/2022/03/prapi-fo-report.html">Team Report</a> for
details. At this time, a Council is evaluating the Formal Objections to
determine whether Payment Request API 1.0 should advance to
Recommendation or be returned to the Working Group for changes.
In September 2022 the Web Payments Working Group published a <a href=
"https://www.w3.org/TR/2022/REC-payment-request-20220908/">Payment
Request Recommendation</a>. Following privacy and internationalization
reviews, the Recommendation excluded <a href=
"https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-payments-wg/2021Jun/0000.html">
capabilities</a> related to billing and shipping addresses. However,
implementations have continued to support those features interoperably,
and so the Working Group has decided to try to re-align the
specification with implementations, and re-engage the community on
associated issues.
</p>
<p>
In the meantime, the Editors have continued to update this
specification with new features (see change log below). To provide
devellopers and implementers with more confidence about these features,
the working group has decided to formally publish the a new W3C Working
Draft. This will also provide the group with a foundation for potential
discussion at TPAC about the future of Payment Request.
This document is a Candidate Recommendation Snapshot based on the text
of the original Recommendation. A subsequent Candidate Recommendation
Draft will add back address capabilities and a small number of other
changes made since publication of the Recommendation.
</p>
<p>
It is not uncommon for a Working Group to work on different revisions
of a specification simultaneously (e.g., see the CSS WG). With that in
mind, and because our current <a href=
"https://www.w3.org/Payments/WG/charter-201912.html">charter</a>
anticipates enhancements to Payment Request 1.0, we've publish this 1.1
draft.
As part of adding back support for addresses, this specification now
refers to the address components defined in the <a href=
"https://w3c.github.io/contact-picker/">Contact Picker API</a> rather
than define those components itself. Indeed, the Contact Picker API is
derived from the original definitions found in Payment Request API, and
pulled out of the specification because addresses are useful on the Web
beyond payments.

are strongly encouraged.

review process before advancing the specification to Proposed
Recommendation status.
