About this plugin
Payment Gateway for Bachs for WooCommerce lets your store accept payments through Bachs, a payments platform for internet businesses across African markets.
ng/payment-gateway-for-bachs-for-woocommerce
Features
- Hosted checkout redirect or on-site popup — choose whether customers are redirected to the Bachs hosted checkout page or pay in a Bachs modal without leaving your store. No card data ever touches your server either way.
- Multiple payment methods — cards, bank transfer, mobile money, and crypto stablecoins (USDT, USDC), all handled on the Bachs checkout.
- Sell in USD or NGN, get paid across Africa — price your store in USD or NGN and, with Bachs Adaptive Pricing enabled, customers can pay in their own local currency (NGN, GHS, KES, UGX, TZS, XAF, XOF, ZMW, RWF and more). Bachs settles to you in USD or NGN.
- Webhook-verified fulfilment — orders complete on the collection.succeeded event, with signature verification, not on the browser redirect.
- Failed, expired and short payments — failed payments mark the order failed, short payments put it on hold for you to review, and customers whose checkout expired can pay again or cancel from the order payment page.
- Refunds — issue a refund straight from the WooCommerce order screen.
- Sandbox mode — build and test against the Bachs sandbox before going live.
- WooCommerce Blocks — works with both the classic and block-based checkout.
- HPOS compatible — supports WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage.
Requirements
- WordPress 6.2 or higher
- WooCommerce 8.0 or higher
- PHP 7.4 or higher
- An SSL certificate (required for live payments)
