Localization

We include UI localizations for many languages. You can check the languages and their respective translations here. Furthermore, it is possible to customize the current translation replacing the default text with your own text in case you want that.

Styling

Adyen Web is themeable and utilizes CSS variables that can be overridden in order to achieve the desired style.

Overriding styles example

For elements that are not inside iframes, you can customize the styles by overriding these styles in a css file. Most of our styles are defined with css variables with default values. To override those styles, you can inspect the DOM and change the value for the css variables either at the root level or by targeting specific elements. Be aware that if you change the values for css variables at the root level, you are also changing the styles for all the child elements that are using the same css variables.

1. Create override.css with the variables that you would like to style

   :root {
       --adyen-sdk-color-background-secondary: #f7f7f8;
   }
   

2. Make sure to import the override.css after importing library's main CSS

   import '@adyen/adyen-web/styles/adyen.css';
   import './override.css';
   

Where do we define those css variables and what is the default value?
