- Billing models
- One-time checkout payments. Recurring billing is not supported by the Phoca Cart plugin yet.
- Cost
- The plugin is free and open source. You pay Tpay's own fees, published on their pricing page (opens in new tab). PaymentHood adds nothing on top.
Coverage, currencies and payment methods as published by Tpay, who set and update them. For the current list see Tpay's own documentation (opens in new tab).
What Phoca Cart customers can pay with
Each method Tpay supports appears in your Phoca Cart checkout. Enabling one is a PaymentHood dashboard setting — nothing changes on the Joomla side.
Direct carrier billing
The purchase is charged to the customer's mobile phone account
Mobile wallets
Regional wallet balances
Mobile money
African mobile money networks
Connect Tpay to Phoca Cart
Four steps, no code. The full walkthrough with screenshots is in the Phoca Cart installation guide.
Open a Tpay account
Register with Tpay and finish their onboarding. Funds settle from Tpay to your own bank account.
Add it in PaymentHood
Paste your Tpay credentials into the PaymentHood dashboard. They stay server-side and never reach your storefront.
Install the plugin
Download the Phoca Cart plugin and install it from Extensions → Manage → Install in your Joomla admin.
Enable and test
Paste your PaymentHood API key into the plugin settings, run a sandbox order end to end, then switch to live.
Rather than a direct Tpay plugin
A single-provider plugin works until you need a second provider. These are the parts you would otherwise build and maintain yourself.
- Webhook security
- Signed billing notification, validated before an order is released
- Payment verification
- Server-side transaction status re-check before fulfilment
- Credentials
- Merchant credentials issued per market, held server-side in PaymentHood
- Add a second provider without touching your Phoca Cart checkout
- Automatic failover when Tpay is unreachable, instead of a failed order
- Idempotent charge creation, so a double-submitted order is not a double charge
- One reconciliation view across every provider you run
- Free and open source — read the plugin on GitHub (opens in new tab)
