Step 4: Customize your payment options
SIBS plugin for WooCommerce supports a range of popular payment methods, including cards (VISA, Mastercard), BLIK (Poland), PayByLink, Apple Pay, and Google Pay.
- Enter Payments tab (see Step 2: Access plugin settings).
- Click Manage to access the main configurations for each payment method.
Cards
Besides being able to activate or de-activate this payment method, in the SIBS Cards configuration you can select which card types you accept and will be displayed in the checkout page:
- Transaction-Mode
Pre-authorization – The customer authorizes the payment but is only charged after the merchant authorizes.
Debit – Usual card payment. - Tokenization
Tokenization helps to protect sensitive data from theft or fraud by ensuring that the original information is never exposed or transmitted. Additionally, it can also simplify payment processing by allowing merchants to safely store payment information without compromising customer privacy.
Here you can deactivate tokenization selecting None. This means that no one can reuse their card number for future purchases.
The Tokenize option allows your customer to tokenize (‘securely save’) their card number for future operations, but not their Security Code.
With OneClick activated you can allow your users a much faster checkout by tokenizing (‘securely save’) their card number and security code. After your customers agree to the terms, and make their first purchase, they will be allowed to just click in the previously saved card, without losing time looking for their card details. All the data is securely stored and encrypted, following the standard compliances.
BLIK
BLIK is a popular mobile payment method in Poland that allows customers to make payments using their unique six-digit code generated on their mobile device. The code is entered at the point of sale (your ecommerce store) making BLIK a fast, secure and convenient payment solution.
At the BLIK configuration page you can activate or deactivate the payment method.
PayByLink
At the PayByLink configuration page you can activate or deactivate the payment method.
Apple Pay
Apple Pay is a mobile payment service provided by Apple, allowing users to make secure purchases with their iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch. By adding credit or debit cards to the Apple Wallet app, users can make contactless payments at NFC-enabled terminals. This convenient and secure payment method is widely accepted at various stores, apps, and websites, offering users a seamless way to pay using their Apple devices.
Google Pay
Google Pay is a mobile payment platform developed by Google for Android devices. It allows users to securely add and store credit or debit card information on their device. With Google Pay, users can make contactless payments in stores by tapping their Android phone at NFC-enabled terminals. The platform also supports online payments within apps and on websites, offering a convenient and secure way to pay using Android devices.
