Description
WorldPay Gateway for WooCommerce connects your WooCommerce store to the WorldPay payment processor, adding a new payment method option at checkout and processing credit card transactions directly through the gateway’s official API. Payment data capture occurs within WooCommerce’s native flow, keeping the customer in the store during checkout and automatically returning the order status after authorization.
