It wraps the REST API with full type annotations, offering both synchronous and asynchronous clients powered by httpx. The library handles authentication via environment variables, provides auto-paginating iterators for list operations, and includes webhook parsing and signature verification.\n\nThe package is designed for developers building payment and card management features. It includes typed request parameters and Pydantic response models, supports nested parameters as TypedDicts, and offers helper methods for serialization. An optional aiohttp backend is available for improved async concurrency, and webhook verification requires the optional standardwebhooks package.","worth_installing":"Yes. This is the official Lithic SDK with active maintenance, low install friction, permissive licensing, no known vulnerabilities, and solid popularity. Install it if you need to integrate Lithic's card issuance or payment API into a Python application."},"id":"lithic","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/lithic","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/lithic.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/lithic/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-05-27","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"lithic","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"The official Python library for the lithic API"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":97609,"position":13142,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.125.0"}
