WooCommerce Chase Paymentech 1.19.1

The WooCommerce Chase Paymentech integration is a premium payment gateway extension that allows your WooCommerce store to securely process credit card transactions through Chase Paymentech, which is a leading payment processor (a division of JPMorgan Chase).

This integration is generally used by US-based merchants who have a Chase Paymentech merchant account and require an enterprise-grade payment solution.

🛡️ Key Features and Security

The focus of this integration is security, compliance, and advanced transaction management:

Hosted Pay Page Security: The integration utilizes the Chase Hosted Payment Page (HPP) via an iFrame.

Benefit: This is a major security advantage because the customer's sensitive credit card data is routed directly through Chase's secure servers, not your website's server.

PCI Compliance: This significantly reduces your store's scope for PCI DSS compliance.

Seamless Checkout: Despite the security, the customer remains on your checkout page, offering a seamless and trustworthy experience.

Tokenization for Saved Cards: Customers can securely save their payment methods to their account for faster future checkouts. The payment data is stored on Chase's secure servers, and the store only retains a non-sensitive token.

Credit Card Support: Accepts all major credit and debit cards, including Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, JCB, and UnionPay.

⚙️ Advanced Store Management

The plugin provides powerful tools that integrate payment management directly into the WooCommerce admin:

Automatic Refunds & Voids: Store managers can process full or partial refunds and voids directly from the WooCommerce Edit Order screen without having to log into the Chase merchant terminal.

Capture Charges (Authorize & Capture): You can configure the gateway to authorize funds immediately but only capture (settle) them manually after an order has shipped. This capture action can be performed directly within the WooCommerce admin.

Virtual Order Charges: You can set the plugin to force an immediate charge for orders containing only virtual or downloadable goods, while physical goods remain set for authorization/capture.

Commerce & Subscription Support

WooCommerce Subscriptions: Provides full support for recurring billing, allowing you to charge customers automatically for subscription renewals using their saved payment tokens.

WooCommerce Pre-Orders: Fully supports taking customer payment information upfront and automatically charging them when the pre-ordered product is officially released.

⚠️ Important Requirements

Chase Paymentech Merchant Account: You must have an established merchant account with Chase Paymentech.

Certification: Chase Paymentech requires merchants to complete an Orbital Certification process to receive production (live) credentials. The plugin includes a Certification Mode tool to assist with this required testing.

Region/Currency: This extension is primarily for merchants in the US and typically processes payments in USD.

SSL Certificate: An SSL certificate is required to ensure the connection between your site and the hosted payment page is secure.
