Our official Windcave WooCommerce plugin provides reliable, modern security and seamless payment processing for your online store. It integrates your WooCommerce site directly with Windcave’s Payment Express Gateway (DPS), ensuring your transactions are handled through a trusted and industry-leading platform.
If you prefer not to manage SSL certificates, credit card security, or the complexities of maintaining compliance yourself, Windcave is an excellent solution. It shifts the responsibility and risk of payment security from your website to Windcave’s fully certified, secure gateway, giving you peace of mind and allowing you to focus on running your business.
Accept Windcave payments without handling card details on your store
A payment gateway should make checkout easier, not add more security concerns or administrative work. Windcave Gateway for WooCommerce connects your store to Windcave’s hosted PxPay checkout, so customers can enter their payment details on Windcave’s secure payment page and return to your store when the transaction is complete.
Use the extension to accept one-time payments, automate subscription renewals, process refunds, and manage authorization transactions from WooCommerce.
Send customers to Windcave’s hosted PxPay page to enter card details
Collect recurring payments with WooCommerce Subscriptions and PxPost
Let subscription customers update their saved payment method
Process supported refunds from the WooCommerce order
Use the Cart and Checkout blocks and High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS)
An active Windcave merchant account and PxPay credentials are required. PxPost credentials are also required for recurring payments, refunds, and completing authorization transactions.
Reduce the payment security burden on your store
When customers enter card details directly on your website, your store takes on more responsibility for protecting sensitive payment information. Windcave Gateway for WooCommerce redirects customers to Windcave’s hosted PxPay page for payment entry and processing.
Keep card entry off your website
Customers complete the payment step on Windcave’s hosted page instead of entering card details directly into your WooCommerce checkout. This reduces the amount of sensitive payment data handled by your store and can help reduce your PCI DSS scope, depending on your configuration and obligations.
Create a clear return path after payment
Choose where customers go after successful and failed transactions. You can also show an order information page before redirecting customers to Windcave, helping them understand what will happen next.
Support subscriptions without manual renewal chasing
Recurring revenue becomes harder to manage when a gateway cannot reuse an approved payment method or keep subscription payment details current. Windcave Gateway for WooCommerce uses PxPost to process scheduled renewal payments and works with key WooCommerce Subscriptions workflows.
Process automatic subscription renewal payments
Support multiple subscriptions
Support subscription cancellation, suspension, and reactivation
Support subscription amount and date changes
Allow payment method changes by customers and store administrators
Let customers update their payment method
Customers can replace the payment details used for their subscriptions from their account. This gives them a way to resolve an expired or replaced card before the next renewal and can reduce avoidable payment failures.
Manage more payment tasks from WooCommerce
Switching between WooCommerce and a separate payment dashboard adds time to routine order management. The extension brings important Windcave payment actions into your existing WooCommerce workflow.
Process refunds from an order
Send supported full or partial refund requests to Windcave through WooCommerce. The transaction reference is linked to the order, helping your team keep payment and order records together.
Authorize now and complete the payment later
For stores that need to confirm inventory, prepare custom products, or review an order before collecting funds, you can process the initial transaction as an authorization. When the order is ready, complete the authorized transaction from the WooCommerce order actions.
Choose the details you need for troubleshooting
Enable detailed transaction logging when you need additional information for testing or support. Leave it disabled during normal operation to record only essential transaction details.

Get started with Windcave
Install and activate Windcave Gateway for WooCommerce.
Obtain PxPay credentials from Windcave.
Obtain separate PxPost credentials if you need subscriptions, refunds, or authorization completion.
Enter your credentials under WooCommerce > Settings > Payments > Windcave.
Choose your checkout title, description, transaction type, payment icons, and return URLs.
Test the complete payment and return process before accepting live orders.
Your WooCommerce store should still use HTTPS and follow applicable security and PCI DSS requirements. Hosted payment entry reduces card-data handling on your site but does not replace secure store maintenance.
