External Services

This plugin connects to the Paymento API to process cryptocurrency payments. Paymento is a non-custodial payment gateway that enables WooCommerce stores to accept payments in Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT, and other cryptocurrencies.

📌 Data Sent to Paymento API

The plugin interacts with the Paymento API for the following purposes:

  • Payment Verification

    • The plugin sends payment transaction details to https://api.paymento.io/v1/payment/verify to confirm if a payment was successfully made.
    • This request is triggered when an order is placed or needs verification.

  • Fetching Merchant Information

    • Calls https://api.paymento.io/v1/ping/merchant/ to retrieve the store’s registered name and confirm API connectivity.
    • This request is made when setting up the payment gateway in WooCommerce.

  • Setting Callback URLs

    • The plugin sends data to https://api.paymento.io/v1/payment/settings/ to configure callback URLs for payment notifications.
    • This happens when the payment gateway is set up for the first time.

  • Submitting Payment Requests

    • When a customer selects crypto payment, the plugin sends a request to https://api.paymento.io/v1/payment/request with order details.
    • This allows Paymento to generate a payment invoice for the user.

  • API Health Check

    • A request to https://api.paymento.io/v1/ping/ ensures the API is operational before processing payments.

🔗 Third-Party Policies

By using this plugin, your WooCommerce store communicates with Paymento API. You can review Paymento’s terms and policies here:

  • Terms of Service: https://paymento.io/terms
  • Privacy Policy: https://paymento.io/privacy

This ensures users are fully aware of the data being sent and why. 🚀

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues:

  1. Enable Debug Log in the plugin settings.
  2. Check the WooCommerce status report (WooCommerce > Status > Logs) for detailed error messages.
  3. Ensure your API Key and Secret Key are correct.
  4. Verify that your server can receive incoming webhooks from Paymento.
