GetPaid First Data Payment Gateway

GetPaid First Data Payment Gateway

The Gateway extension enables merchants to process credit card transactions via First Data’s payment platform directly within their WordPress site. When installed, version 1.0.0.1 of the addon works with the First Data/Payeezy system, supporting multiple currencies and recurring payments. The extension requires only minimal setup in the GetPaid payment gateway settings and ensures customers can pay via First Data without leaving the site.

Built using PHP and GetPaid’s gateway framework, the extension integrates with First Data’s API for transaction processing, handling credit card data securely. The plugin requires WordPress 4.7 or higher, PHP 5.6 or newer, and GetPaid core plugin version 1.0.0 or newer. During configuration, administrators input credentials such as store ID, API key, or HMAC details, enabling SSL‑secured communication with First Data services. Recurring payment support means subscriptions or repeat billing cycles work out of the box.

Key feature highlights include support for most currencies accepted by First Data, in‑app checkout experience without redirecting users off-site, and support for recurring billing scenarios. Because it relies on First Data’s API, PCI‑DSS compliance is maintained without storing sensitive card data on the WordPress server. Transactions are authenticated through First Data’s secure endpoints via coded integration in the addon. The extension relies on stable API endpoints and the merchant’s First Data configuration.

Merchants can accept both one-time and subscription payments through this gateway. First Data’s recurring support is integrated to handle automated renewal billing. The extension reads order data from GetPaid and forwards it to First Data with transaction metadata. Responses are returned to update order status seamlessly through PHP callbacks. Invalid transactions result in automatic failure notifications via GetPaid’s standard messaging system.

Installation involves purchasing the addon at tiered pricing: $39 for a single site, $49 for up to five sites, or $89 for twenty‑five sites. After activation, the gateway appears under GetPaid Settings > Payment Gateways. Admins configure title, credentials, and debug mode if needed. Once configured, customers can select First Data at checkout, enter payment details, and complete transactions without redirect.

With this gateway, site owners get a polished, secure credit card processing solution within the GetPaid ecosystem. The integration ensures minimal friction, recurring billing support, and compatibility with a wide range of currencies—providing a robust payment gateway option that leverages First Data’s extensive infrastructure for WordPress merchants.
