The Invoice Payment Option extension for WooCommerce enables you to add a new invoice payment method to let customers place orders without making any payment. Display the new payment option based on user roles, product in cart, order amount, quantity and other conditions.
You can rename the payment method to Pay Later, Pay by Invoice or give it any other name that suits your business requirements. Once the order is placed, the customer will receive the standard WooCommerce order email. If needed, you can also attach invoice PDF with the order emails.
After the order and payment confirmation, you can send a direct payment link using the default WooCommerce feature to let customers pay using the default WooCommerce checkout process. Alternatively, you can choose to receive payment via other channels such as banking checks, cash on delivery, etc.

Invoice Payment Option

Order Now and Pay Later! Allow your customers to select invoice payment option during checkout to place orders. Add conditions to show invoice payment options for specific products, categories, countries, cart total, user roles and more.

Take full control of your payment gateway titles and descriptions to create a smoother, clearer, and more trustworthy checkout experience.
A successful online store isn’t just about selling products — it’s about creating a seamless buying journey.
And the most critical step of that journey? Checkout.
Default payment method names and descriptions can sometimes be technical, unclear, or too generic, which often leads to customer confusion. A small misunderstanding at checkout can be the difference between a completed purchase and an abandoned cart.
With Rename Payment Methods for WooCommerce, you can customize both payment method titles and their descriptions — giving your customers a clearer, friendlier, and more transparent experience.

<h2>Why this extension is essential</h2>
Imagine replacing robotic-sounding labels with human-friendly titles and explanations:
Before: “Direct Bank Transfer”
After: “Bank Transfer — Send your payment securely using online banking”
Before: “Cash on Delivery”
After: “Pay When You Receive Your Order — Simple and secure”
Before: “Stripe”
After: “Credit/Debit Card — Fast & Secure Payments”
Before: “PayPal”
After: “Pay with PayPal — Use your balance or linked cards instantly”
By customizing both the title and the description, you guide your customers confidently through the payment step, making it easier for them to choose the right option without second-guessing.
