Description
The Datman Payment Gateway plugin integrates your WooCommerce store with the Datman Pay platform.
When a customer checks out, a secure payment link is created via the Datman API and the customer
is redirected to a hosted payment page. On completion, they are returned to your store and the
order status is updated automatically via webhook.
Configuration
API Credentials
All credentials are available in your Datman merchant portal.
- API Token – Your Datman API token
- Merchant Domain – e.g. xyz-business.com
- Merchant ID – Your numeric merchant ID
- Account Email – The email address tied to your Datman account
Payment Settings
- Debug Logging – When enabled, the full API request, response, and webhook payload are written to the WooCommerce order notes. Useful for troubleshooting. Disable in production once everything is working.
Webhook
The webhook URL is automatically included in every payment request sent to Datman. No manual portal configuration is required — Datman receives the callback URL per transaction.
External Services
This plugin connects to the Datman Pay API to generate hosted payment links.
The following data is transmitted when a customer checks out: order amount, customer
name, customer email address, billing phone number, and WooCommerce order ID.

FAQ

Do I need a Datman merchant account?
