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 makes exactly four types of request to the Paymento API, each with a specific trigger. No request is made on ordinary page views.

Submitting Payment Requests

Endpoint: https://api.paymento.io/v1/payment/request

Triggered when a customer places an order and chooses Paymento at checkout.

Data sent: order total, currency, order ID, the return URL on your store, and your API Key.

Paymento returns a payment token used to generate the invoice.

Payment Verification

Endpoint: https://api.paymento.io/v1/payment/verify

Triggered only when Paymento notifies your store of a paid order via webhook (IPN).

Data sent: the payment token for that order, and your API Key.

Used to confirm the notification is genuine before the order is completed.

Fetching Merchant Information

Endpoint: https://api.paymento.io/v1/ping/merchant/

Triggered only when an administrator saves the gateway settings in WooCommerce.

Data sent: your API Key. Returns your registered merchant name and account status, which are stored locally and shown on the settings screen.

Setting Callback URLs

Endpoint: https://api.paymento.io/v1/payment/settings/

Triggered only when an administrator saves the gateway settings, after the merchant check above succeeds.

Data sent: your store’s webhook (IPN) URL and your API Key, so Paymento knows where to send payment notifications.

📌 Customer Redirect After an order is placed, the customer’s browser is redirected to https://app.paymento.io/gateway with the payment token for that order, where they complete the payment. No other customer data is included in the redirect.

📌 Data Received Paymento sends payment status notifications to /wp-json/paymento/result on your store. Every notification is verified with an HMAC SHA256 signature using your Secret Key before it is processed.

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

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