- Preauthorization - As far as possible, payment will be reserved at the time of order. The payment has to be collected later in the order.

User-defined display for the hosted iframe
The WooCommerce Extension offers the conformity with the "lowest" Compliance Level according to PCI DSS (SAQ A). Since in this compliance level all credit card data may only be entered in fields hosted by a PCI DSS certified service provider, our extension uses iFrames that are integrated into the checkout. However, these do not inherit the CSS of the shop template, but contain their own style. You can use the following settings to customize these fields.
| Field |

With this payment method, careful selection of the authorization method is particularly important. Since with "Authorization" the demand is written immediately on the PAYONE platform, the platform also immediately sends a corresponding invoice. You should therefore use this authorization method above all if you perform the service immediately.
Orders placed via the PAYONE Extension for WooCommerce are listed as usual in the order overview of WooCommerce. Order processing differs depending on the authorization method used to process the order.
Capture
Orders placed using the authorization method "Preauthorization" are given the status "On Hold" after the order has been placed.
Only a status change to "Processing" activates the claim on the PAYONE platform and initiates (where possible) the collection of funds. Set the status to "Processing" and click on the blue "Update" button on the right.
The collection is then initiated on the PAYONE platform and acknowledged in the order notes:
Possible errors can also be found in the Order Notes.
Reserved payments are not reserved indefinitely. You should therefore take care to set orders to "Processing" in good time after a preauthorization and thus collect the payment or write the claim. Here are some (non-binding) guide values for the validity of the reservation:
- Credit card - 7 days (sometimes longer, varies from bank to bank)
- PayPal - 29 days
- PAYONE Secure Purchase on Account - 28 Days
Refund
Credit notes use the familiar WooCommerce credit note process. A click on the button "Refund" in the order opens the menu for credit notes:
Here you can enter the amount credited and a reason. Important: "Refund manually" does not credit the money on the payment method, but only in WooCommerce. Use this option only if you do not want to transfer money back or if you use other ways than the PAYONE platform.
Due to limitations in the way that WooCommerce manages orders, the shop's standard tax rate for the entire credit amount is always transferred for credit notes with shopping basket transfer. This is especially important when the PAYONE platform takes care of document dispatch for you. This is the case, for example, with the PAYONE Safe Invoice payment method.
However, if you wish to credit a shopping cart that contains items with different tax rates or mixed tax rates, please use the credit function in the PAYONE Merchant Interface. There you have the option of creating individual shopping basket items together with the tax rate, which are then displayed correctly on the document.
Here you will find separate setting options that allow you to customize our plugin more precisely to your needs.
API Log
Under "API-Log" you will find the detailed API calls that WooCommerce sends to the PAYONE platform. Here you will also find detailed technical information on the response to the PAYONE API.
Transaction Status Log
The Transaction Status Log displays all feedback on payments made that the shop receives from the PAYONE API.
