Plugin Settings for EdfaPay WooCommerce

This section provides a clear, step-by-step guide for configuring Redirect Checkout using the EdfaPay WooCommerce plugin. In this mode, customers are redirected to EdfaPay’s secure payment page to complete their transactions.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure the following prerequisites are met:

The plugin is installed and activated (see Plugin Installation).
You have LIVE API Key from EdfaPay.
Your domain is SSL-enabled.

Open EdfaPay Settings

Navigate to:

WooCommerce → Settings → Payments

Locate EdfaPay and click Manage.

Steps to Configure Redirect Checkout

On the EdfaPay configuration page:

Enter your API Key.
Copy the Webhook URL displayed on the page.
Configure the Webhook URL in your EdfaPay Merchant Dashboard under the Transaction webhook category.
Click Save Changes to complete the setup.

Note

Sandbox Mode is intended for testing transactions in the Demo/Sandbox environment and should be enabled only during development or testing activities.

When using the Production (Live) environment, ensure that Sandbox Mode is disabled. Leaving Sandbox Mode enabled in a live environment may cause transactions to be routed to the sandbox environment and prevent live payment processing.

Demo/Sandbox Environment: Sandbox Mode = Enabled
Production/Live Environment: Sandbox Mode = Disabled

Note: Ensure that the correct environment URL is used:

Use demo.edfapay.com for the Sandbox/Demo environment.

Use app.edfapay.com for the Production/Live environment.
