AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
SnapScan Payment Gateway is a category-leading WordPress app with a limited review volume. It is listed in the Payment Gateway category on WordPress Plugin Directory, which AppRanks treats as the canonical taxonomy node for ranking and competitor comparison. 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.

How SnapScan Payment Gateway works
Show full descriptionShow less
This extension provides a unique combination of payment options for your customers. SnapScan allows South African customers to check out quicker and more securely using the SnapScan app, which encrypts their card details. Customers spend less time at checkout, and more time shopping.
Customers without the SnapScan app can pay using their card details. These payments will reflect alongside your SnapScan payments in your consolidated SnapScan transaction history.
Once the payment process is complete, the order will be created in the WooCommerce system and marked as “processing”, so no manual payment reconciliation is needed.

WooCommerce 2.6.0 or greater
