Description

With this plugin your customers can pay with debit, credit and prepaid cards, easily, quickly, securely and with low fees.

When customers choose Openpay at checkout, they complete the payment on Openpay’s secure checkout and are then sent back to your store. The order is updated automatically once the payment is confirmed, with no manual checks on your side.

Adding Openpay as a payment method is simple:

  1. If you are not an Openpay customer yet, download the app from the App Store or Play Store and sign up.
  2. If you are already a customer, sign in at https://dashboard.openpayargentina.com.ar and generate your integration credentials.
  3. Install the plugin in WooCommerce.
  4. Enable and configure Openpay as a payment method in WordPress.

Read the terms and conditions.

External services

This plugin relies on Openpay, a third-party payment service, to process payments. It cannot work without it. Openpay’s payment processing is provided by the GeoPagos platform, so the plugin connects to these servers:

  • auth.geopagos.com (authentication): receives your Client ID and Secret ID and returns a temporary access token.
  • api.openpayargentina.com.ar (payments): creates the payment order for each purchase and checks its payment status.

Data is sent in these cases:

  • When you click “Verificar Credenciales” on the settings screen: your Client ID and Secret ID are sent to auth.geopagos.com to check that they are valid.
  • When a customer places an order with Openpay: your Client ID and Secret ID are sent to auth.geopagos.com to obtain an access token. Then the plugin sends to api.openpayargentina.com.ar the items (ID, name, quantity and unit price), the taxes, the currency, the pages the customer returns to after paying, and the address of your store where the service reports the payment result. For orders that need shipping, it also sends the shipping method and amount, the shipping address, and the customer’s first and last name.
  • While an order is pending payment: the order’s payment reference is sent to api.openpayargentina.com.ar to check whether the payment was confirmed.

The customer enters their card details on the payment page hosted by the service. Card details never pass through your store.

The plugin settings screen also loads the Roboto font from Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com), which receives the administrator’s IP address and browser details. See the Google privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

Where can I get help with the setup?

Send us your question through our contact form: https://openpayargentina.com.ar/woocommerce

How do I get my credentials?

Sign in at https://dashboard.openpayargentina.com.ar and follow the steps to generate them.

Why does my customer leave the store to pay?

The payment is completed on Openpay’s secure checkout, and your customer returns to the store when it is done. This way card details never pass through your site.

The order is pending. What does that mean?

The order is created as pending when your customer goes to pay, and it becomes paid once Openpay confirms the payment. If the confirmation does not arrive, the plugin checks the status on its own, so a pending order can update itself a few minutes later.

What happens if my store currency is not supported by the plugin?

Purchases may fail to complete, and the store administrator is shown a notice about the problem.

Hola, lo instale, hice pruebas en produccion y por ahora bien!

no funciona con la ultima version de php

By sebadixon on August 18, 2025

no funciona para php 8.3.2, en la pagina de openpay lo dice pero en la pagina del plugin dice php superior a xxxx.

No funciona, no sé quien diseñó o creó este plugin

By atziin on March 6, 2025

No funciona absolutamente nada, directamente sale un error "no se pudo activar este plugin debido a un error fatal". está muy mal configurado, tiene que usarse en un sitio web completamente vacío para que funcione, y aún así funciona con errores, no lo recomiendo en lo absoluto ya qué tiene muchos problemas.
