Integrating, Configuring and Testing
1. Have your WordPress site ready with demo/testing/sandbox environment for testing purposes.
2. In case WooCommerce has not been installed, you can do so within WordPress by going to Plugins > Add New Plugin > searching WooCommerce and installing the plugin.
3. Search for the BlueTape payment gateway in Plugins > Add New Plugin > "BlueTape Pay
Integration for WooCommerce"
It should look like this:
4. Click the Install Now button next to the BlueTape Pay plugin.
5. Once the installation is complete, click the Activate button. (It should now say “Deactivate” beneath the plugin name.)
6. The plugin is now installed and ready for configuration.
7. Under WooCommerce in the WordPress settings menu, press Settings > Payment tab. In the far bottom right of the BlueTapePay option, press the Manage button.
8. Contact the BlueTape team for test keys for your demo environment and production keys when you are ready to go live with the new updated payment systems. They will issue guidance on setting up all required fields.
9. Once all necessary fields are filled out, go to the top left corner and press "Visit Site." Go to the Checkout page, then press Edit Site.
Tip: If BlueTape payment options don't automatically show up on your checkout page, you may need to update the check out page. In this case, the default checkout page must be deleted since the payment method is not connected to WooCommerce payment. Click 3 dots at top of block > Delete.
You will then need to add the checkout via shortcode. Go to Pages tab > Checkout > Options dots > press Edit, then under the Blocks options, search and select [/] Shortcode and enter [woocommerce_checkout] > Transform into blocks > Refresh
10. Now we are ready to test the integration. View the site, add items, and go through the checkout flow as if you were a customer.
You can see in Pay > Invoices that the status will update in real time in your BlueTape account.
As mentioned, you can also see this within Wordpress by going to the Orders tab beneath WooCommerce:
