Description
The Moneris addon connects GiveWP to the Moneris payment gateway, processing credit-card donations directly in the donation form without redirecting the donor away from the site. The integration sends data via the Moneris API, records each transaction in the GiveWP dashboard, and keeps payment-status tracking centralized with the other organization’s fundraising reports.

Benefits of the Moneris Gateway
- Seamless donor experience
The donor completes the contribution without leaving the site, reducing friction and checkout abandonment. - Acceptance by Canadian organizations
Connects the widely used Canadian processor Moneris to the entity’s donation flow. - Centralized financial operations
All donations are visible in a single dashboard, eliminating the need to cross external reports. - Greater trust in the process
Payment processed in a dedicated environment lends more credibility to the donor at the time of the contribution.
Who Should Use It?
- Canadian NGOs and charities that already have an active Moneris account.
- Non-profit organizations that raise donations via GiveWP and need a local Canadian gateway.
- Churches, foundations, and social projects that want to process card contributions directly on the site.
For Canadian entities already using Moneris daily, this addon eliminates the need for generic gateways or external redirects in the donation flow. Unified payment processing and donor management within GiveWP simplify financial reconciliation and keep the entire fundraising journey inside the organization’s WordPress environment.

What changed in this version
Version 1.1.0
- New: Added CVD / CVV (the last-3 numbers on the back of a credit or debit card) validation via the Moneris eFraud API.
Version 1.0.1
- Fix: We resolved a bug which was causing amounts over $999.99 to be rejected by the Moneris API due to an incorrect currency format. The Moneris API does not want any thousands separators passed in the payment request. We have removed the thousands separators and tested thoroughly to ensure large amounts are fully supported.
