Woocommerce crypto payments

WooCommerce is an e-commerce system designed to help merchants launch an online shop easily and quickly using WordPress CMS. The plugin expands its functions noticeably. WooCommerce can be easily "equipped" with add-ons that will bring new opportunities for managing online businesses.

The plugin uses the Apirone service as a gateway to accept cryptocurrencies. This feature will attract new customers and increase a working capital due to a new means of payment. The system does not store the client's funds, but transfers the payment directly to the specified bitcoin wallet.

Below is a step by step instruction on how to install the plugin, there is also a video at the end of the page with the process of installing and paying for the plugin.

How to install the plugin

How to use the plugin

The idea behind the plugin is quite simple. The customer places an order and selects the option to pay with cryptocurrency.

The shop sends its crypto address and its website callback URL to the Apirone API server. The customer receives the order amount converted into cryptocurrency and a QR code to scan to pay for the goods.

The transaction goes to the blockchain. The server sends a callback to the URL provided by the shop. The shop receives the first notification.

The operation is then confirmed by the network. It usually takes about ten minutes. The system then transfers the crypto to the recipient and executes a second callback. Now the customer can receive their goods. The transaction is completed.
