Ideal for processing into MOTO-enabled EFTPOS terminals, bank-supplied online merchant terminals, bank smartphone processing apps and mobile merchant devices.
The e-Path service collects your customer’s credit card details with an approval to charge. You are notified by email so you can log in to securely view the credit card details and process the order offline using your manual merchant account.
It is not necessary to use an online merchant account with e-Path, only a basic MOTO merchant account is used. While individual circumstances may vary, the merchant service fee for a MOTO merchant account may be lower than the rate for an online merchant account. e-Path charges a one-off setup and an annual fee for their service but does not charge per transaction.
All credit card handling is performed on the PCI-compliant e-Path website. The merchant website does not require an SSL certificate.
Works with any currency (AUD, USD, GBP, and more!)
An <a href="https://e-path.com.au" target="_blank" rel="noopener">e-Path account</a> is required that has its own fees.

<h3>Simple, Integrated Checkout</h3>
Using the USA ePay extension allows you to decide what your checkout process will look like, while keeping the customer on your site for the entire process. This gives you maximum control over this experience, providing a slick checkout process for the user and maximum customizability for the business owner.

You can now opt to show detailed decline messages to your customers, no more “an error occurred” error messages!

<h3>Support for Automatic Refunds & Voids</h3>
Shop employees can now process refunds for an order paid for with USA ePay directly from within WooCommerce — no more logging into your merchant account to process refunds. Speed up your store management by creating full or partial refunds from the Edit Order screen and sending the transaction automatically to USA ePay by clicking “Refund via Credit Card.” If the transaction has not been captured or settled, a transaction void will be performed automatically instead to cancel the order.
<h3>Capture Charges directly from WooCommerce</h3>
Some users choose to set the payment gateway to only authorize charges rather than authorize & capture them. However, this requires the user to then log into the payment gateway admin to capture charges. Version 2.0+ of this extension allows you to optionally capture previously authorized transactions directly from the WooCommerce Edit Order screen rather than logging into your USA ePay control panel to do so. Simply edit the order, select the “Capture Charge” action, and charges will be captured through USA ePay.

<h3>Securely Save Customer Credit Cards</h3>
Customers can easily and securely save multiple credit cards to their account for faster checkout when you use TransArmor tokenization via First Data. Payment data is stored on First Data’s secure servers, so your responsibility for PCI compliance is significantly reduced. Customers can then select a saved card to pay for future orders.
<h3>Full Support for Subscriptions and Pre-Orders</h3>
USA ePay is an ideal gateway for <a href="https://woocommerce.com/products/woocommerce-subscriptions/">WooCommerce Subscriptions</a>, offering support for all of Subscriptions features — subscription date changes, payment date changes, and more. The gateway also fully supports <a href="https://woocommerce.com/products/woocommerce-pre-orders/">WooCommerce Pre-Orders</a>, so you can take customers’ payment information upfront and then automatically charge their payment method once the pre-order is released.
<h2 style="color: #f5247d">How it works (and how you stay in control)</h2>
USA ePay for WooCommerce keeps checkout on your site and gives you powerful tools to manage payments end‑to‑end. Authorize now and capture later from the Edit Order screen, refund or void without leaving WooCommerce, and let returning customers pay faster with saved cards.

Detailed decline messaging and clean reporting help you resolve issues quickly and keep revenue flowing.
