Processing a Transaction

Once your customer has added the items to their shopping cart, they will proceed to the site’s checkout, where they will fill in personal details such as their name, email, shipping address etc. Once filled in they will select “Pay with Credit/ Debit Card” (you can edit the button text in the plugin). Once clicked, they will be directed to a checkout summary with the Blink integration payment page opened in an iframe. The customer enters their card details (Name on Card, PAN, CVV, & expiry date) and clicks on “Pay”. Blink will initiate the 3DS check and process the transaction, once completed, your customer will be notified. successful.

If the payment is unsuccessful, the customer will be prompted to try the payment again. If it is successful, the customer will be redirected to a success page and receive an email receipt.

On WooCommerce, you can see the list of orders made on your site.

Orders with successful payments will be marked as “Processing,” i.e. you, the merchant, should now be processing the order. Whereas orders with the status “Pending” are when the customer has not yet made a successful order. For more on status orders, please visit the WooCommerce guide.

Info

In this integration, Blink only has control of the payment page. All the other parts of this flow are done by WooCommmerce and can be edited.

A record of a transaction that is done through the integration will be shown on the Blink Card transactions page on Blink. It can take up to 20 minutes for integration transactions to appear. from here, you can manage the integration transaction like any other Blink Transaction: resend receipt, cancel, refund, rerun or repeat the transaction. See the Blink Cards transaction history guide for more details on these functions.

Note

Actioning a Refund/ Rerun on Blink will not change the order status in Woocommerce, it will need to be changed manually there.

The details they have entered on the site (name, email, billing address) will all show in the transactions list. The transaction reference of a WooCommerce transaction will always start with “WC_order_” followed by a string of random letters.

We update the plugin frequently. If you want to upgrade your integration to the most recent version, please deactivate and delete the current version from WordPress.
