Why WooCommerce merchants choose Wonderful
Instant settlement Payments arrive immediately, not days later. This supports faster dispatch, fewer delays, and clearer cash flow.
Lower, predictable costs Wonderful uses simple, transparent pricing with no percentage-based fees. Lower processing costs give merchants flexibility to reinvest in customer benefits such as faster shipping or loyalty incentives.
A smoother checkout experience Customers select Pay by Bank, choose their bank, and approve the payment in-app. They are returned automatically to your store to complete their order.
Bank-level security Every transaction is authorised directly by the customer’s bank using Strong Customer Authentication. No card numbers, passwords, or sensitive credentials are stored, reducing fraud and chargeback risk.
Works alongside existing payment methods Wonderful does not replace your current checkout. It can be enabled alongside card payments, wallets, and other methods, including Stripe and WooPayments.
