WooCommerce PagSeguro Gateway

Description

The PagSeguro processes PagSeguro payments directly in the WooCommerce checkout, connecting the store’s checkout flow to the operator’s API to authorize credit card, bank slip, and online debit without redirecting the customer outside the page. The add-on handles status callbacks (approved, under review, canceled) and updates the order in the store panel according to the operator’s response, keeping the history synchronized.
