Pre-Built Integrations
This page explains how to obtain API keys for Paypercut and use them with any plugin (WooCommerce, PrestaShop, OpenCart, Shopify, etc.).
Apple Pay
If you plan to use Apple Pay, additional domain verification may be required.
See:
Obtain API Keys (one-time per environment)
- Log in to your Merchant Dashboard.
- Go to Developers → API Keys → Create New Key.
- Choose the environment:
- Sandbox API Key — for testing and development.
- Production API Key — for live transactions (available after merchant onboarding).
- Copy the key and paste it into the plugin settings in your store admin (each plugin has a dedicated settings page for API credentials).
- Save and test the connection from the plugin settings page (most plugins provide a “Test connection” or “Test payment” action).
Plugin-specific notes (common to all plugins)
- Use the Sandbox key while you build and test—never use Production keys in a public/testing environment.
- When ready to go live:
- Switch plugin mode to Production.
- Replace the Sandbox key with the Production key.
- Verify webhooks and perform a small live transaction.
- Webhook URL: ensure the plugin’s webhook endpoint (provided in plugin docs/settings) is configured in the Merchant Dashboard and is HTTPS.
- If the plugin supports separate fields for publishable/client and secret keys, place them in the correct fields as indicated by the plugin UI.
Security & Best Practices
- Store keys securely; do not commit them to source control.
- Rotate keys if you suspect compromise.
- Use idempotency keys for server-side requests to prevent duplicate charges.
