Overview

The Monime Wordpress plugin allows store owners in Sierra Leone (and other supported regions) to accept payments directly through their WooCommerce store using Monime's payment infrastructure.

It leverages Monime's Checkout Session API to provide a secure, hosted payment experience.

Key Features

• Hosted Checkout: Redirects customers to a secure Monime payment page, reducing PCI compliance scope.
• Broad Payment Support: Accept payments via:
  • Mobile Money: Orange Money, AfriMoney, etc.
  • Cards: Visa, Mastercard.
  • Bank Transfers: Direct bank integrations (e.g., SLCB).
  • Digital Wallets: Supported wallet providers.
• HPOS Compatible: Fully supports WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS).
• Block Theme Support: Integrated with WooCommerce Cart & Checkout Blocks.
• Granular Control: Configure exactly which payment providers are available to your customers.
• Automated Statuses: Uses webhooks to automatically update order statuses (Pending -> Processing/Failed).

How It Works

1. Checkout: When a customer chooses "Monime" at your store, an order is created with Pending Payment status.
2. Redirect: The plugin creates a Monime Checkout Session and redirects the customer to the secure payment page.
3. Payment: The customer completes the payment using their preferred method.
4. Confirmation: Monime redirects the customer back to your "Order Received" page.
5. Webhook: Simultaneously, Monime sends a secure webhook to your server to confirm the payment and update the order status.

Requirements

• WordPress: 6.2 or higher
• WooCommerce: 8.2 or higher
• PHP: 7.4 or higher
• Monime Account: A business account with an active Space.
