Payment Gateway for Bachs for WooCommerce

Payment Gateway for Bachs for WooCommerce lets your store accept payments through Bachs, a payments platform for internet businesses across African markets.

📖 Documentation and setup guide: ibrahim.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 and abandoned handling — orders are marked failed or cancelled automatically.
• 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)
• A Bachs account — sign up at bachs.io

External services

This plugin connects to the Bachs API to create checkout sessions, verify payments, and process refunds. It is required for the plugin to function.

When a customer pays with Bachs, the plugin sends the following to Bachs (https://api.bachs.io, or https://sandbox-api.bachs.io in test mode):

• Order reference and total amount
• Currency
• Customer billing details (name, email address, and phone number, when provided)
• A product record representing the order

The customer then pays on the Bachs hosted checkout (https://checkout.bachs.io) — either by redirect, or, when the Popup checkout type is selected, in a modal opened by the Bachs checkout script (https://checkout.bachs.io/bachs.js) loaded on the order-pay page. Card and payment details are handled entirely by Bachs; this plugin never stores or processes card numbers or other sensitive payment data. Bachs also sends signed webhook notifications back to your site to confirm payment and refund status.
