ElyonPay for WooCommerce
ElyonPay for WooCommerce connects your store to the ElyonPay payment gateway so you can collect payments in a few clicks across Cameroon, West and Central Africa, and beyond — through Mobile Money as well as bank cards.
Your customers pay on a secure page hosted by ElyonPay (USSD for Mobile Money, 3D Secure for cards), then return to your store. Each order status is confirmed only after a server-side verification: no payment is ever marked as paid on the basis of a redirect alone.
Supported payment methods
- Mobile Money: MTN MoMo, Orange Money, Wave, Moov Money, Airtel Money
- Bank cards: Visa and Mastercard (3D Secure)
Why ElyonPay
- Built for Africa — local operators and currencies (XAF, XOF, EUR, USD, GBP, NGN, KES, CDF).
- Classic and block-based checkout — works with both the WooCommerce block checkout and the legacy checkout.
- Reliable payments — server-side status verification after every transaction, plus an automatic re-check of pending payments.
- No sensitive data on your site — card details are entered on ElyonPay’s secure page, never on your store.
- HPOS compatible — ready for WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage.
- Built-in test mode — a full sandbox environment to validate everything before going live.
How it works
- The customer completes the cart and selects ElyonPay.
- They are redirected to the ElyonPay payment page (Mobile Money or card).
- After paying, they are redirected back to your store.
- The plugin queries the ElyonPay API and updates the order according to the real status: paid, failed, or pending.
