I am working on building a custom wordpress woocommerce payment gateway. I am following this tutorial "https://www.sitepoint.com/building-a-woocommerce-payment-extension/", the issue is that i am not using the direct payment method, and instead i need to use iframe based or external page.
I need to know how to redirect to the external page/iframe, make the payment and get the result back.

anyone can change the tutorial code or help? Thanks.

  • Why do you "need" to use an iFrame? What restriction do you have that requires iFrames, rather than embedding in your site? – random_user_name Jun 07 '16 at 22:14

    it is kind of how PayPal, it follows the PCI compliance. – Amjad Ata-Allah Jun 07 '16 at 22:17
  • You can do PayPal without an iFrame, and maintain PCI compliance. iFrames for this sort of application are *not good*, and should be avoided. – random_user_name Jun 07 '16 at 22:21
  • OK then, how to redirect to their landing page, process the payment and get the result back? – Amjad Ata-Allah Jun 07 '16 at 22:22

    So you are aware that WooCommerce **has** a PayPal add-on, right? Depending on the version of PayPal. For [Standard](https://docs.woothemes.com/document/paypal-standard/), or [Pro](https://www.woothemes.com/products/paypal-pro/) – random_user_name Jun 07 '16 at 22:41

    @cale_b yes i am aware, but i am not building an add-on for PayPal, i am building it for a payment gateway which is similar to PayPal. – Amjad Ata-Allah Jun 07 '16 at 23:19
  • Is there a reason you're not sharing the details? Is it confidential which payment portal you are using? It's difficult to advise how to do this when we can't even know what API options are available to you. – random_user_name Jun 08 '16 at 15:01
  • Just FYI An Iframe woocommerce gateway *is* a supported gateway type. They are used for PayPal-like payment processing where the payment occurs on a different site. The question is about this type of gateway https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/payment-gateway-api/ – Rodrigo Murillo Jan 21 '18 at 04:19
  • Did you ever figure out how to insert an iFrame? – Sean Marraffa Apr 20 '20 at 03:41
  • If you got a solution please share here. – omukiguy May 29 '20 at 10:41
  • @AmjadAta-Allah Can you please let me know which PayPal payment gateway do you want to migrate in Iframe? – ZealousWeb Sep 27 '21 at 07:04
