Webhooks

Last updated: 08-Aug-2024

Why are webhooks important and where can the merchant read more on this?  

  • Ensure that orders are updated even if the customer abandons the Hosted Payment Page (HPP).
  • Synchronize orders with Verifone Central so that any modification done on Verifone is reflected in WooCommerce as well (e.g.: refunds performed on Verifone Central).

  1. Go to WooCommerce Settings and click on the Payments tab.
