Project scope
Gateway Development
The WiPay gateway directs customers to a hosted payment page for card entry. After the customer returns, the plugin validates the response and associates it with the corresponding store order. Merchant settings control the environment and charging currency.
The work covers software development and integration. Payment processing remains with the provider, while the plugin manages the store-side connection and order workflow.
Services Provided
Six areas of development connect the customer payment experience with the tools merchants need to operate the gateway.
1 - Hosted card checkout
Built a redirect-based payment journey from WooCommerce to WiPay’s hosted card-payment page and back to the store.
2 - Classic and Blocks checkout
Added gateway support for both classic WooCommerce checkout and the newer Blocks checkout experience.
3 - Currency conversion
Implemented an optional USD charging mode for stores using unsupported currencies, with exchange-rate caching and a defined rounding rule.
4 - Validated payment returns
Developed signed return handling, transaction matching and replay protection before updating WooCommerce payment status.
5 - Merchant setup and support
Created branded overview and help pages with setup guidance, environment controls and optional troubleshooting logs.
6 - Updates and ongoing maintenance
Integrated WordPress plugin updates through release packages and maintained compatibility and payment-return behaviour. Live use requires a configured, verified WiPay merchant account.
