Hi all
does anyone knows how to integrate Paylah, paynow, dash with wordpress for ecommerce?
Not sure about Dash, but I *suspect* it isn't an ideal approach.
While I have not seen it all for integration with Paylah and PayNow, my personal experience is it is always initiated from a bank mobile app whether you search up the payee or via a static QR code.
Your problem will be with reconciliation. Suppose you have a transaction X that allows your user(browser) to be redirected to either a QR code or payment gateway that integrate with Paylah or Paynow, how is the user going to pay?
The user can't be authorising a 3rd party system (other than the bank he/she trust) to access his/her bank account for debit right ? So the user must always initiate from his/her own app (so far only mobile app), perform a payment to the payee. I am not aware that at this point, the user will be able to refer the particular payment to transaction X.
Without this linkage, your Wordpress, nor even the payment gateway will be able to reconcile the payment to a particular transaction and hence the Wordpress(e-commerce) system can dispatch the service/goods after payment.
The only way is user make a payment to the payee, and notify the payee using other methods. The flow is manual. It is actually not much difference from a COD or bank transfer, except that it goes through an encoded payment ID assigned by the paynow/paylah to the payee.
On the mobile alone, after visiting your e-commerce site, I can't see a way that the user can be redirected to the bank mobile app to perform a payment and then be redirected back to the e-commerce app for transaction completion. If the user is using a separate system to visit the e-commerce app, it still can be somewhat done, but still reconciliation will be an issue.
Interesting question to have a discussion on, just that I am not aware if it is possible or reasonable to do so. Perhaps someone else whom has observe such a payment flow via pay now,paylah that works for complete automated online payment ?
