Multibanco, MB WAY, Credit card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Payshop, Cofidis Pay, and PIX (ifthenpay) for WooCommerce vs WP Express Checkout (Fast Payments via PayPal & Stripe)

“Pagamento de Serviços” (payment of services) on Multibanco (Portuguese ATM network), and MB WAY (using the customer’s mobile phone number), are the most popular ways to pay for services and (online) purchases in Portugal. Portuguese consumers trust the “Multibanco” and “MB WAY” payment methods more than any other. This plugin generates a “Multibanco” Payment Reference that customers can use to pay for their WooCommerce orders at an ATM or via home banking, or an “MB WAY” payment request which will send a push notification to the customer’s mobile phone for payment approval. Credit or debit cards, including Apple Pay and Google Pay, CTT Payshop, and Cofidis Pay payment methods are also available. Holders of a Brazilian bank account can conveniently pay for WooCommerce orders in Euros, with automatic currency conversion to Brazilian Real, using PIX. This is the official ifthenpay plugin, and a contract with this company is required. Technical support is provided by Naked Cat Plugins (by Webdados) on the WordPress.org support forums. Fully compatible with the new High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS) and the WooCommerce block-based checkout.
