Get Woopay live in 5 minutes

A no-fluff install guide for the Woopay WooCommerce gateway. Grab the plugin, drop in your licence key, connect your PayPal REST credentials, and start taking card payments.

1. Install the plugin

Download woopay.zip and upload it via WooCommerce → Plugins → Add New → Upload.

2. Activate your licence

Paste the licence key from your welcome email into WooCommerce → Settings → Payments → Woopay.

3. Connect PayPal REST

Enter your live PayPal Client ID and Merchant ID. Webhooks are configured automatically.

4. Enable 3-D Secure

Turn on smart routing so low-risk transactions stay frictionless and high-risk ones fall back to 3DS.

Licence validation endpoint

Validate a licence key from your own tooling.

Troubleshooting

Licence invalid — check the domain matches your activation and that your subscription is active.
3DS challenge loops — clear WooCommerce transient cache and ensure your PayPal account has 3DS enabled.
Payouts pending — new PayPal REST apps have a 24h holding period before first payout.
