Paystack for WooCommerce (Pro)

Key Features

Registers a native WooCommerce gateway via the WC_Payment_Gateway class — appears in WooCommerce → Settings → Payments alongside your other methods

Accepts cards, bank transfer, USSD and mobile money through Paystack's channel selector, toggled per store from wp-admin

Multi-country African coverage: Nigeria (NGN), Ghana (GHS), Kenya (KES) and South Africa (ZAR) with correct currency handling

Server-side transaction verification using Paystack's /transaction/initialize and /transaction/verify endpoints — never trusts the client redirect alone

HMAC-validated webhook listener (x-paystack-signature) exposed through the WooCommerce REST API namespace for reliable order-status sync

Recurring and subscription token support, hooked into WooCommerce Subscriptions renewal events for automatic re-billing

Split payments and subaccounts for marketplaces, vendors and commission-based stores

Full refunds issued directly from the WooCommerce order screen, mirrored to Paystack via the refund API

HPOS-aware: reads and writes order data through the CRUD layer, compatible with WooCommerce custom order tables

WP-Cron reconciliation job that re-verifies pending bank-transfer and USSD orders so abandoned tabs don't strand payments

Structured logging via WC_Logger for every API call and webhook, viewable under WooCommerce → Status → Logs

WPML and WordPress multisite compatibility, plus filter and action hooks so your theme or other plugins can extend checkout behaviour

About this Product

Paystack for WooCommerce (Pro) is a payment gateway plugin that ECOSIRE custom-builds, installs and supports directly on your WordPress site — it is not an instant download from WooCommerce.com or the WordPress.org repository. After purchase, our engineers register the gateway through WooCommerce's WC_Payment_Gateway class, wire it into your existing checkout, and configure it against your live Paystack secret and public keys.

The plugin unlocks the local African payment channels that global processors like Stripe and PayPal simply do not offer: card payments, direct bank transfer, USSD, mobile money and Paystack's hosted checkout — across Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya and South Africa, each settling in its local currency (NGN, GHS, KES, ZAR). Channels are toggled per store from a dedicated wp-admin → WooCommerce → Settings → Payments panel.

Under the hood it uses Paystack's /transaction/initialize and /transaction/verify endpoints, and a hardened webhook listener registered via the WooCommerce REST API namespace so order status stays in sync even when a buyer closes the tab mid-payment. We verify the x-paystack-signature HMAC on every callback before touching an order. The build is HPOS-aware (WooCommerce custom order tables) and stores transaction references in order meta, not the deprecated posts table.

Pro capabilities include recurring/subscription tokens (compatible with WooCommerce Subscriptions renewal hooks), split payments and subaccounts for marketplaces and commission models, and full refunds issued straight from the WooCommerce order screen. Every build is delivered with WP-Cron reconciliation for pending transfers, structured logging via WC_Logger, and WPML/multisite compatibility on request.

What you get

A custom-built Paystack gateway plugin packaged for your specific WooCommerce install and theme

Installation and activation performed by ECOSIRE on your WordPress site (staging first, then production)

Configuration of your live Paystack public/secret keys and webhook URL, tested with a real low-value transaction

Enabled channel set (cards, bank transfer, USSD, mobile money) and per-country currency setup matched to your Paystack account

Setup of split payments / subaccounts and subscription tokens where your plan includes them

Short admin handover doc covering settings, refund flow and where to read the WC_Logger logs

30 days of post-launch support for configuration issues and Paystack API changes

Who this is for

African D2C store owner

Runs a direct-to-consumer brand in Nigeria or Ghana and is losing checkouts because Stripe/PayPal can't take local cards, bank transfer or USSD. Needs the channels customers actually use.

Cross-border SME merchant

Sells into multiple African markets and needs one WooCommerce store that settles in NGN, GHS, KES and ZAR through a single Paystack account, without juggling separate gateways.

Marketplace or multi-vendor operator

Runs a commission or vendor model and needs Paystack split payments and subaccounts so each sale is automatically divided between the platform and the seller at the point of payment.

Frequently Asked Questions about Paystack for WooCommerce (Pro)

Is this an instant download I install myself?

No. This is a build-to-order plugin. After purchase, ECOSIRE custom-builds the gateway for your specific WooCommerce version, theme and Paystack account, then installs and configures it on your site for you. There is no WooCommerce.com or WordPress.org download link — we deliver and deploy it directly.

How long until it's live on my store?

Typical delivery is 5 to 10 business days from the point we receive your Paystack API keys and access to a staging environment. We build and test on staging first, then deploy to production and verify with a real low-value transaction before handover. Complex requirements like split payments across many subaccounts can extend the timeline, and we confirm the schedule with you before starting.

What ongoing support and updates are included?

Every build includes 30 days of post-launch support covering configuration issues, webhook problems and any Paystack API changes during that window. After that, optional maintenance plans keep the plugin compatible with new WooCommerce and WordPress releases, HPOS changes and Paystack API updates. Because the plugin is custom, updates are applied by us rather than auto-pushed from a marketplace.

Which Paystack channels and countries are supported?

Cards, bank transfer, USSD and mobile money, plus Paystack's hosted checkout, across Nigeria (NGN), Ghana (GHS), Kenya (KES) and South Africa (ZAR). The available channels depend on what your own Paystack account is approved for in each country — we enable exactly the set your account supports.

Will it work with my existing subscriptions and HPOS setup?

Yes. The Pro build integrates with WooCommerce Subscriptions renewal hooks for recurring billing using Paystack tokens, and it is written against the WooCommerce CRUD layer so it works with HPOS (custom order tables) as well as the legacy posts storage. We confirm your specific subscription and order-storage setup during the build.
