<p><strong>SaleMint Paddle Checkout for WooCommerce</strong> connects your WooCommerce store to <a href="https://paddle.com" rel="nofollow ugc">Paddle</a>, a merchant-of-record payment platform built for digital products. Paddle handles the checkout, tax calculation, and invoicing, while this plugin keeps your WooCommerce orders fully in sync.</p>
<h4>How it works</h4>
<p>When a customer places an order, the plugin opens Paddle’s hosted checkout (modal or full-page). After the customer completes payment, the Paddle transaction ID is captured and attached to the WooCommerce order. The plugin then fetches the authoritative order totals from Paddle — including any tax Paddle applied — and updates the WooCommerce order to match, so your records are always accurate.</p>
<h4>Key features</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Classic checkout & WooCommerce Blocks</strong> — Works with both the classic WooCommerce checkout and the modern block-based checkout.</li>
<li><strong>Modal or full-page checkout</strong> — Choose between an overlay modal or a full-page Paddle checkout, configurable from the gateway settings.</li>
<li><strong>Sandbox / live mode</strong> — Toggle between Paddle’s sandbox environment for testing and the live environment for production, without touching any code.</li>
<li><strong>Digital-only enforcement</strong> — The Paddle payment option is automatically hidden whenever the cart contains a physical product that requires shipping. This prevents it from appearing for orders Paddle cannot fulfil.</li>
<li><strong>Paddle tax categories</strong> — Assign a Paddle tax category (e.g. <em>standard</em>, <em>digital-goods</em>, <em>ebooks</em>, <em>SaaS</em>, <em>software</em>) to products, with a configurable store-wide default. Supports all 13 Paddle tax classifications.</li>
<li><strong>Coupon sync</strong> — WooCommerce coupons applied at checkout are forwarded to Paddle as discounts, so the transaction amount in Paddle always reflects the discounted total.</li>
<li><strong>Cart fee sync</strong> — Extra fees added to the cart (e.g. handling fees or surcharges) are passed to Paddle as line items and synced back after payment, keeping both records consistent.</li>
<li><strong>Automatic order totals sync</strong> — After payment, the plugin synchronises WooCommerce order totals — including line-item subtotals, discounts, fees, tax lines, and the grand total — with the values reported by Paddle. An order note is added documenting the sync for auditing purposes.</li>
<li><strong>Transaction & invoice ID tracking</strong> — The Paddle transaction ID and invoice ID are saved directly to the WooCommerce order and visible on the order detail screen.</li>
<li><strong>Transaction URL</strong> — A direct link to the Paddle transaction is saved with each order so you can jump straight to the Paddle dashboard from WooCommerce.</li>
<li><strong>Refund support</strong> — Initiate full or partial refunds from the standard WooCommerce refund interface; the plugin forwards the refund to Paddle automatically.</li>
<li><strong>Invoice button on order screen</strong> — A one-click button on the admin single-order page lets you open or download the Paddle-generated invoice without leaving WooCommerce.</li>
<li><strong>Order-pay page support</strong> — Customers can retry a failed or pending payment from the WooCommerce order-pay page; billing details are pre-populated automatically.</li>
<li><strong>Light and dark themes</strong> — Choose between Paddle’s light and dark checkout UI to match your store’s design.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Requirements</h4>
<ul>
<li>PHP 8.1 or higher</li>
<li>WordPress 6.0 or higher</li>
<li>WooCommerce (latest recommended)</li>
<li>A <a href="https://paddle.com" rel="nofollow ugc">Paddle account</a> with an API key and client-side token</li>
</ul>

<li><strong>Sandbox:</strong> same URL (environment is set via the client-side token)</li>

<li><strong>Sandbox:</strong> <code>https://sandbox-api.paddle.com</code></li>

HandyPlugins PaddlePress – Paddle Integration for WordPress


It integrates seamlessly with Paddle, making it much easier to sell themes, plugins, and manage subscriptions. The plugin is user-friendly, with thorough documentation that has made setup and use a breeze. I'm using it in my WordPress theme shop.

5/5. Recommended.


Simple, effective Paddle integration for WordPress


This plugin has made it easy for me to switch to Paddle as my payment processor. I was very relieved to have found it, after digging through Paddle's documentation and seeing what it would take to integrate with my site.



I have reached out to the dev twice with questions/requests and both times, my issue was resolved the same day. Just an all around good experience using this plugin!
