payments on WHMCS

Install the free PaymentHood module for WHMCS, connect your PayTabs account, and PayTabs appears as a payment option at checkout. No custom gateway code, and no second integration when you add another provider later.

Cost
The module is free and open source. You pay PayTabs's own fees, published on their pricing page (opens in new tab). PaymentHood adds nothing on top.

Buy now, pay later

Setup

Connect PayTabs to WHMCS

Four steps, no code. The full walkthrough with screenshots is in the WHMCS installation guide.

1

Open a PayTabs account

Register with PayTabs and finish their onboarding. Funds settle from PayTabs to your own bank account.

2

Add it in PaymentHood

Paste your PayTabs credentials into the PaymentHood dashboard. They stay server-side and never reach your storefront.

3

Install the module

Download the WHMCS module and install it from Apps & Integrations in your WHMCS admin.

4

Enable and test

Paste your PaymentHood API key into the module settings, run a sandbox order end to end, then switch to live.

Why PaymentHood

Rather than a direct PayTabs module

A single-provider module works until you need a second provider. These are the parts you would otherwise build and maintain yourself.

Webhook security
Signed transaction callback, validated before an order is released
Payment verification
Server-side transaction query against the PayTabs API before fulfilment
Credentials
Profile ID and server key, held server-side in PaymentHood
  • Add a second provider without touching your WHMCS checkout
  • Automatic failover when PayTabs 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 module on GitHub (opens in new tab)
FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

They overlap heavily. PayTabs reaches further into Egypt, Jordan and Iraq; Tap is strongest in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. The honest answer is to compare the quoted rates for your own market and volume — and behind PaymentHood you can run both and route between them.

Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Egypt, Kuwait, Oman, Jordan and Iraq, each in its local currency plus USD.

Yes — valu and aman in Egypt and Tabby in the Gulf. These matter more in the region than they do in Europe, and a checkout without them will underperform on higher-value baskets.

No. PayTabs bills you directly for its own fees, and PaymentHood takes no percentage and no per-transaction cut at any volume. See PaymentHood pricing.
