accept.blue Payment Gateway Pricing

• Credit card and ACH bank payments through a single gateway
• 3D Secure (3DS) authentication for fraud protection
• Secure customer vaulting and tokenization — no card data touches your server
• Full WooCommerce Subscriptions support, including switching payment methods
• Compatible with WooCommerce Block Checkout
• PHP 8.4 compatible and actively maintained

Step 2: Extract the Zip File

If you downloaded a zip archive from CodeCanyon or Patreon, extract it on your computer first.

Step 4: Connect Your accept.blue Merchant Account

Once activated, head to WooCommerce > Settings > Payments and enable the accept.blue gateway. Enter your API credentials from your accept.blue merchant dashboard, choose whether to enable 3D Secure and customer vaulting, and save your changes.

Run a test transaction in sandbox mode before switching to live to confirm everything is connected correctly. This is also a good time to test any subscription products if your store uses WooCommerce Subscriptions, since renewal charges will route through the same gateway.
