Connect Tap Payments to WooCommerce
Four steps, no code. The full walkthrough with screenshots is in the WooCommerce installation guide.
Open a Tap Payments account
Register with Tap Payments and finish their onboarding. Funds settle from Tap Payments to your own bank account.
Add it in PaymentHood
Paste your Tap Payments credentials into the PaymentHood dashboard. They stay server-side and never reach your storefront.
Install the plugin
Download the WooCommerce plugin and install it from Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin in your WordPress 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 Tap Payments 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 charge notification, validated before an order is released
- Payment verification
- Server-side charge status re-check against the Tap API before fulfilment
- Credentials
- Secret API key, held server-side in PaymentHood
- Add a second provider without touching your WooCommerce checkout
- Automatic failover when Tap Payments 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)
