You are now ready to accept payments through Beyond Pay Gateway on your WooCommerce store! WooCommerce Subscriptions Integration Beyond Pay for WooCommerce offers automated recurring billing functionality through integration with the official WooCommerce Subscriptions Extension. The Subscriptions Extension must be purchased from WooCommerce before recurring payments can be accepted with Beyond Pay for WooCommerce. Setting up your subscriptions is simple: Create a subscription product in the Products module of WooCommerce and define the price and terms: e.g., “$5.90 every 2nd month”. As customers purchase subscription products on your store, they will be prompted to create a user account and save their payment method on file. When the payment is due, Beyond Pay for WooCommerce will automatically charge the card on file without you having to do anything. The status of each scheduled payment is reported back to your WooCommerce Subscription extension in WooCommerce, whether successful or failed. Your customers can change their payment method on the WooCommerce “my-account” page. Here, customers can also click the “Renew Now” button and pay their subscription ahead of the due date. All card on file data is securely tokenized by Beyond Pay and never touches your server.

Selling something shouldn’t require a full shopping cart. Simple Payment turns any WordPress post, page, block, form or button into a ready-to-pay product or service in minutes — and routes the money through the payment gateway you already trust. No bloated store to configure, no checkout to rebuild: just a shortcode (or a block, or an Elementor widget) and you are taking payments. From a single “Donate” button to installment plans, saved cards, subscriptions and multi-gateway checkouts, Simple Payment scales from a personal blog to a commercial site — while keeping sensitive card data out of your database. Why you’ll love it Sell in minutes, not days. Drop one shortcode on any page and you have a working, styled payment form. Post/page titles become the product name and a custom field becomes the price — automatically. Use the gateway you already have. One consistent form and workflow in front of many gateways — switch providers without rebuilding your pages. Built for real money flows. Installments, monthly subscriptions / recurring, saved-card tokenization, refunds, invoices/receipts, and automatic transaction verification. Beautiful, flexible forms. Multiple templates (Bootstrap, Legacy, Donation, free-amount), inline, IFRAME or modal display, and full support for your own theme templates. Privacy first. PCI-DSS friendly: card data is masked/redacted before anything touches the database, and old records can be auto-archived and purged. Developer friendly. A rich set of actions and filters, a documented Engine API to extend any gateway or build your own, plus a full transactions log with filtering and CSV export. Supported payment gateways (Engines) PayPal, Cardcom, iCount, PayMe, iCredit, CreditGuard, Meshulam, YaadPay, Credit2000, WooCommerce (third-party site), plus a Custom engine for anything else and a Test engine for development. NEW: Sell on one site, charge on another (WooCommerce engine) The WooCommerce engine lets your site take a purchase and hand the actual payment off to a separate, third-party WooCommerce store over its REST API — perfect for agencies, marketplaces, franchises and multi-brand operators who want a central “storefront” and one billing store that owns the gateways, invoices and bookkeeping. The customer clicks Buy on your site; Simple Payment creates the order on the remote WooCommerce store with the correct total and customer details. The shopper pays on the remote store (in a redirect, popup or modal) using whatever gateways that store has enabled. A bundled Companion mode on the receiving store validates and keeps the originating parameters, can auto-complete paid orders, silences the remote store’s duplicate customer/admin emails for outsourced requests, and sends the customer straight back to your site when payment succeeds. You keep a full record of every transaction on the originating site, with automatic status verification. Works with your favorite tools Gutenberg block editor, Elementor, WooCommerce, WPJobBoard, GravityForms and Form Maker — plus Zapier to trigger workflows (CRM, email, spreadsheets, fulfilment) on every payment. What you can build One-click “Buy” / “Donate” buttons anywhere on your site Pay-what-you-want donation forms with a free-entry amount Membership, course or service checkouts on a single landing page Installment plans and monthly subscriptions Central storefront that bills through a separate WooCommerce store Currently on Beta: PayMe – please contact if you require assistance. Soon to be released: Pelecard, Tranzila. PS: You’ll need a Simple Payment API key for advanced gateways to use it. Keys are available for personal blogs; single domain, multiple domains, businesses and commercial sites. Feedback and Support I would be happy to receive your feedback to improve this plugin.
