What is a payment gateway?

A payment gateway in WooCommerce terms is a WordPress plugin for WooCommerce that allows customers to pay for goods and services using a payment system.

  • All require an account with the Payment Gateway company – normally called a merchant account.
  • Each has terms and fees set by the Payment Gateway company, which is separate from the WooCommerce.com extension subscription. Contact the Payment Gateway company directly, with questions about account requirements, terms, and fees.
  • Some have multiple options based on different account types, transaction types, or redirect methods.
