External Services

This plugin relies on the Payfam payment gateway service to process bank transfer payments for WooCommerce orders. The plugin communicates with Payfam’s API at https://payfam.com.ng to create temporary virtual bank accounts for payments and verify payment status.

Service Details:
– What: Payfam is a payment gateway that provides virtual bank accounts for secure bank transfer payments.
– Purpose: The plugin uses Payfam’s API to generate virtual account details (account name, number, bank name) for each order and to verify payment completion via webhooks.
– Data Sent:
– When a customer places an order and selects Payfam as the payment method, the plugin sends the following data to https://payfam.com.ng/api/create-temp-virtual-account/:
– Order ID (as metadata)
– Order amount
– Customer email
– Customer first name
– When verifying payment status (via webhook or manual check), the plugin sends the transaction reference (txnref) to https://payfam.com.ng/api/verify-payment/.
– When: Data is sent when an order is placed (to create a virtual account) and when payment status is verified (via webhook after payment or during order status checks).
– Conditions: Data is only sent if the customer selects Payfam as the payment method and the store has configured valid Payfam API credentials. No data is sent without an active order.
