Microsoft has commenced development of its Payment Response API technology designed to make in - browser payments easier with Microsoft Edge . The API has been put into preview builds , with further support and full implementation planned in future . The technology could help developers enable e - commerce payments through Microsoft Wallet in Windows 10 . That’s because consumers are often unwilling to go through complex checkout processes on these screens — 46% of cart abandonments occur at the payment stage, and others happen at address entry points or checkout login.

It is hoped that the API will increase Microsoft Edge speed and browser use on desktop .
