AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Monero WooCommerce Extension is a category-leading WordPress app with a limited review volume. Category data on the canonical marketplace listing is currently incomplete, so AppRanks falls back to platform-wide rather than category-relative comparison for this listing. 1 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.

Benefits
Payment validation done through either monero-wallet-rpc or the xmrchain.net blockchain explorer.
Validates payments with cron, so does not require users to stay on the order confirmation page for their order to validate.
Order status updates are done through AJAX instead of Javascript page reloads.
Customers can pay with multiple transactions and are notified as soon as transactions hit the mempool.
Configurable block confirmations, from 0 for zero confirm to 60 for high ticket purchases.
Live price updates every minute; total amount due is locked in after the order is placed for a configurable amount of time (default 60 minutes) so the price does not change after order has been made.
Hooks into emails, order confirmation page, customer order history page, and admin order details page.
View all payments received to your wallet with links to the blockchain explorer and associated orders.
Optionally display all prices on your store in terms of Monero.
Shortcodes! Display exchange rates in numerous currencies.
Installation Automatic method In the “Add Plugins” section of the WordPress admin UI, search for “monero” and click the Install Now button next to “Monero WooCommerce Extension” by mosu-forge, SerHack. This will enable auto-updates, but only for official releases, so if you need to work from git master or your local fork, please use the manual method below.
Manual method
Download the plugin from the releases page (https://github.com/monero-integrations/monerowp) or clone with git clone https://github.com/monero-integrations/monerowp
Unzip or place the monero-woocommerce-gateway folder in the wp-content/plugins directory.
Activate “Monero Woocommerce Gateway” in your WordPress admin dashboard.
It is highly recommended that you use native cronjobs instead of WordPress’s “Poor Man’s Cron” by adding define('DISABLE_WP_CRON', true); into your wp-config.php file and adding * * * * * wget -q -O - https://yourstore.com/wp-cron.php?doing_wp_cron >/dev/null 2>&1 to your crontab.
Configuration Option 1: Use your wallet address and viewkey This is the easiest way to start accepting Monero on your website. You’ll need:
Your Monero wallet address starting with 4
Your wallet’s secret viewkey
Then simply select the viewkey option in the settings page and paste your address and viewkey. You’re all set!
Note on privacy: when you validate transactions with your private viewkey, your viewkey is sent to (but not stored on) xmrchain.net over HTTPS. This could potentially allow an attacker to see your incoming, but not outgoing, transactions if they were to get his hands on your viewkey. Even if this were to happen, your funds would still be safe and it would be impossible for somebody to steal your money. For maximum privacy use your own monero-wallet-rpc instance.
Option 2: Using monero wallet rpc The most secure way to accept Monero on your website. You’ll need:
Root access to your webserver
Latest Monero-currency binaries
After downloading (or compiling) the Monero binaries on your server, install the systemd unit files or run monerod and monero-wallet-rpc with screen or tmux. You can skip running monerod by using a remote node with monero-wallet-rpc by adding --daemon-address node.moneroworld.com:18089 to the monero-wallet-rpc.service file.
Note on security: using this option, while the most secure, requires you to run the Monero wallet RPC program on your server. Best practice for this is to use a view-only wallet since otherwise your server would be running a hot-wallet and a security breach could allow hackers to empty your funds.
