Yativo Payments adds two payment methods to your WooCommerce checkout:
  • Local payments: bank transfers and local methods for your country. Your customer pays on a secure Yativo page.
  • Cards: debit and credit cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay on Yativo’s secure page, for USD stores. Card details never touch your site.
An order is only marked paid after the plugin confirms the payment with the Yativo API. It works with the classic and block checkout, and with WooCommerce order storage (HPOS).

Download the plugin

yativo-payments.zip from the latest release

Requires

WordPress 6.2+, WooCommerce 8.0+, PHP 7.4+, and https on your site

​
Set up

1

Install

In WordPress, go to Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin, choose yativo-payments.zip, then click Install Now and Activate.
2

Connect your Yativo account

Go to WooCommerce → Settings → Yativo. Choose Sandbox (test), paste your API key and secret, and click Save changes. Then click Test connection.If it says the IP address isn’t allowed, add your web server’s IP to the key’s IP whitelist.
3

Turn on webhooks

Click Register webhook URL. The plugin registers https://your-site.com/wp-json/yativo/v1/webhook and saves the secret for you.
4

Choose your payment methods

In WooCommerce → Settings → Payments, open Yativo local payments, tick Enable, enter your customers’ three-letter country code (such as BRA or MEX), click Load payment methods and tick the ones you want.For cards, open Yativo cards, tick Enable and enter the seller customer ID: the Yativo customer whose card_checkout endorsement is approved.
5

Make a test purchase

Buy something in a private browser window. For cards in sandbox, use 4242 4242 4242 4242 with any future expiry and any CVC. The order moves to Processing once Yativo confirms the payment.
A Yativo account has one webhook URL. Register webhook URL replaces any URL set before. If another system uses your Yativo webhooks, register that system’s URL and forward events to the store instead.
When everything works, switch to Production, enter your production key and secret, and click Register webhook URL again.

What happens to orders

​
Keep keys out of the database

Define the credentials in wp-config.php instead of the settings page. Constants take priority:
wp-config.php
Saved secrets are never shown again on the settings page, and the debug log never contains them.

​
Troubleshooting

Refunds are made in Yativo. Card refunds made there are reflected on the order automatically.
