A Handy Guide on ANZ eGate Payment Gateway for WooCommerce



WooCommerce store owners were always on the lookout for a plug-in that could accept payments in WooCommerce through a simple gateway integration. This wish is fulfilled with ANZ eGate Payment Gateway for WooCommerce.

With the help of this ingenious plug-in, it becomes possible to take credit card payments directly on your store through the ANZ eGate payment processor. The amazing part is, you now have the option to accept payments in AU and NZ dollar currencies. This plug-in is a wonderful asset for small to large businesses that wish to conduct online transactions.

One thing that is peculiar about this plug-in is the fact that it enables you to use either a merchant hosted (2-party) or server hosted (3-party) checkout. Let’s look at both these terms. 

Merchant hosted is the place from which the merchant provides an SSL secure plage on their website. This is where the purchases can enter credit card details and order details. Then the merchant’s system sends an encrypted message to ANZ eGate wherein the transaction is processed and the final output with approved/declined response is received. Then the response is displayed on the merchant’s system to the purchaser. 

On the other hand, a server hosted checkout transfers the customer from your website to an ANZ branded website where the credit card details need to be entered. Once the payment is confirmed, the customer is transferred back to the order confirmation page on the site.

Let’s now look at some of the features provided by this efficient plug-in.
  1. It accepts all major credit cards which are accessible in the US, including Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, and JCB.
  2. The payments get accepted in AUD and NZD.
  3. It supports Merchant Server API (2-Party Payment).
  4. It supports Hosted Server (3-Party Payment).
  5. It supports the SHA256 Secure Hash.
  6. It supports automatic refunds.
Since you are now familiar with the features of this amazing plug-in, the next step is to look at its installation process.
  • Go to “Plugins” in the WordPress dashboard and click on “Add New.”
  • Upload the plugin zip file and install it.
  • Activate the plugin.
  • Go to WooCommerce > Settings > Payment tab to configure the plugin options.

Testing

You can test payment with 10AUD as ANZ will support only integer value in test transactions.

WooCommerce 3.6.x, WooCommerce 3.5.x, WooCommerce 3.4.x, WooCommerce 3.3.x, WooCommerce 3.2.x, WooCommerce 3.1.x, WooCommerce 3.0.x
