Introducing Woopay: The WooCommerce Gateway We Wish Existed
Why we built Woopay, what it does differently, and what's coming in the next six months.
The backstory
We ran a small WooCommerce store selling digital coaching. Stripe closed our account on a Wednesday with 21 days' notice and $18k in a reserve. We spent the next month duct-taping PayPal Standard onto our checkout — losing conversions on every step.
Woopay is the plugin we wish existed that week.
What it does today
- One-click card payments on WooCommerce, no redirect.
- 3-D Secure 2 with frictionless flow.
- Tokenised recurring billing.
- Real-time refunds and partial refunds.
- Multi-currency support with automatic FX.
What's next
- Apple Pay and Google Pay wallet buttons.
- Native SCA exemption engine for low-value transactions.
- A hosted merchant dashboard with dispute automation.
Follow along here — we'll ship a build note every two weeks.
