GiveWP Paytm Gateway

Description

The Paytm gateway adds to GiveWP the option to process donations via Paytm, integrating the donation form checkout with the Paytm merchant account to accept payments by cards, NetBanking, Paytm wallet, and UPI in the Indian market. Transaction capture occurs automatically, recording the payment as completed in the GiveWP donations panel for NGOs and social projects operating in India.

Geared toward causes that raise funds in the Indian digital ecosystem, the Paytm Gateway resolves the payment barrier that limits donations from local donors that depend on international processors. By plugging Paytm into GiveWP, organizations start receiving payments in rupees using the methods already widely adopted in India, without requiring an international card or currency conversion at the time of donation.
