Cost
The module is free and open source. You pay Zapper's own fees, published on their pricing page. PaymentHood adds nothing on top.

Payment methods

What WHMCS customers can pay with

Each method Zapper supports appears in your WHMCS checkout. Enabling one is a PaymentHood dashboard setting — nothing changes on the WHMCS side.

QR code

Customer scans at checkout and confirms in the Zapper app

Payment links

A shareable code or link that can be attached to invoices

Setup

Connect Zapper to WHMCS

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

1

Open a Zapper account

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

2

Add it in PaymentHood

Paste your Zapper 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 Zapper 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
Payment notification validated before the order is released
Payment verification
Server-side payment status re-check before fulfilment
Credentials
Merchant API credentials, held server-side in PaymentHood
  • Add a second provider without touching your WHMCS checkout
  • Automatic failover when Zapper 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
FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Both are South African QR wallets and both work the same way from the customer's side — scan, confirm in the app, done. They differ mainly in installed base and in the merchant networks that have adopted them. Since neither reaches every customer, most merchants who offer QR payment offer both, which behind PaymentHood is a dashboard toggle rather than a second integration.

Yes. You register with Zapper directly and connect the merchant credentials to PaymentHood. Funds settle from Zapper to your bank account; PaymentHood never holds merchant money.

On mobile-heavy traffic and on invoice or social selling, where sending a scannable code is faster than asking a customer to type card details on a phone. On a desktop-heavy B2B checkout, cards and pay-by-bank will usually carry more volume.

Yes, and you should. Each method reaches customers the others miss. PaymentHood presents all configured methods through one checkout and one integration.

No. Zapper bills you directly for its own fees. PaymentHood takes no percentage and no per-transaction cut — see PaymentHood pricing.
