PCI Vault Forms is a WordPress Plugin Directory app by PCI Vault.
AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
PCI Vault Forms is a newly-listed 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. no published reviews yet means feature claims are unverified by the wider merchant base. Without a published review base, the only fit-signal available is the developer's own documentation plus the marketplace's listing-quality audit (linked below). 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.
Pros
- +Published by PCI Vault — established developer track record
Cons
- −No public reviews yet — fit and reliability are unverified

How PCI Vault Forms works
Show full descriptionShow less
Securely capture payment card data from your site using PCI Vault. PCI Vault is a vendor neutral PCI DSS compliant environment designed to reduce your PCI compliance scope to a SAQ by using credit card tokenization.
Data captured with this plugin will be sent to PCI Vault’s DSS compliant environment directly, and will not be present on your own server. This allows you to securely capture and tokenize credit card data without being PCI DSS compliant.
How it Works The plugin comes with a short code that loads PCI Vault’s own Payment Card Data (PCD) form, and makes all the necessary requests to the PCI Vault API in order to get the form working. You can read more on the API side of things here.
Take note that this includes 2 paid API requests: 1 when the form loads, and 1 when the data is being sent to PCI Vault.
To use this plugin, add your authorisation details, and the user/passphrase for a key, in the PCI Vault Options menu. You can then load the capture form anywhere in your site by using the pcivault_capture shortcode.
Shortcode Attributes All valid short code attributes are imported directly into the javascript that renders the form. The security of these attributes are the responsibility of the site, and not PCI Vault.
Every attribute must be a valid Javascript expression. We recommend to use function calls that return the values you want the attributes to have, this will grant extra flexibility and avoid issues with WordPress’s sanitisation.
The attribute options are:
success_callback: A JS function to call if the card was successfully stored.
error_callback: A JS function to call if the card was not successfully stored.
extra_data: Extra data to store along with the card, must be a valid JS object. This is where using a JS function call really helps.
show_card: A true/false value on whether or not to show the card on the form.
disable_luhn: A true/false value on whether to disable validation on all form fields.
force_keypad: A true/false value on whether to force the user to use a randomised on-screen keypad for entering card numbers. This helps to protect you from key-loggers.
field_options: A configuration object for specifying which of the form fields to show or validate.
For more information on these fields, please check the documentation for PCI Vault’s Payment Card Data (PCD) form.
PCI Vault All of the magic behind this plugin happens on PCI Vault’s environment.
This plugin sends an authenticated request to PCI Vault, retrieving a unique capturing endpoint.
This request includes your authentication details, and the key/passphrase pair specified in the PCI Vault Options menu.
This plugin also loads a hosted PCD form from PCI Vault.
