- Liability Shift Behavior: This field determines how to handle the transactions if a fraudulent card is used on the website. When we use this functionality, the liability shifts to the authorizing bank and the store owner receives no claim for any chargeback. It has two options:
- Option A:” If no liability shift has been granted transaction will be on-hold, merchant can capture or cancel transaction”. Here order placed via fraudulent card will be on-hold and merchant can capture or cancel transaction accordingly.

- Force access token generation: This allows merchant to enable/disable Access-token generation. If it is enabled, "Access-token" is generated automatically.

TRANSACTION DETAILS
CAPTURE PAYMENT
In the payment configuration, if “Capturing” is set to “Auto Capture”, the merchant doesn’t need to do anything from the WordPress backend. Payments will be captured automatically by the system.
When the “Capturing” is set to “Manual Capture”, the merchant will have the option to Capture or Cancel transactions. If we click Capture, the transaction will be captured.
For orders containing only digital products if payment is successful then the status of that order will be "Completed"
CANCEL PAYMENT
Only authorized, but not captured orders can be cancelled. Cancellation of order prevents any future change from being made to it. If we click CANCEL, the transaction will be cancelled.
Order Details Transaction Tab with Capture/CANCEL button
While clicking Capture button, capture confirmation pop up will be displayed. If we click OK button, amount will be successfully captured and order status will be changed to Processing.
You can see transaction status and date under history tab mentioned in order detail page

CHECKOUT BLOCK COMPATIBILITY
The checkout block compatibility feature has been successfully implemented. Our plugin now supports both the [woocommerce_checkout] shortcode method and the Gutenberg checkout block. This enhancement allows for seamless integration and improved functionality for users.
- For themes that support Gutenberg blocks, please ensure to include the checkout block Gutenberg module on the Checkout page for WooCommerce version 8.3.1 and above
- For themes that do not have block compatibility and WooCommerce versions below 8.3.1, please utilize the [woocommerce_checkout] shortcode.
If you are experiencing issues with missing validation messages, please ensure that you have added the Store Notice block above the checkout block on the checkout page. This will help to ensure that all necessary information is displayed correctly and that customers are informed of any errors or required fields.
ALIAS MANAGER
Alias Manager allows your customer to save the credit card information in his account and to use for the future payments.
Saferpay Secure Card Data or SCD in short, is a service for saving sensitive payment means information in the certified Saferpay data centre. By using SCD, the payment data is separated from the merchant application and no longer comes in contact with it. The stored Secure Card Data can be referred from future payments initiated via Transaction” interface.
This feature is available for payment methods that supports secure card data. Sensitive payment data is stored only in certified Saferpay data centre. If the settings ‘Is Save Card Available?’ is Active in Payment method configuration page, then logged in customers can save and use their card for future transactions.
In addition to this, customer can manage the saved cards from his customer account in My account section. A new tab “Saved Cards” is added in my account page from which customers can add, update and delete cards from his account.
ADD CARD option will only be available for customers if “Allow save card in user profile” set to Yes in Saferpay general settings.
Card Number – Displays the masked credit card number provided by Saferpay.
Customers have the option to update the expiry date of the card that is already saved by clicking Edit button
ERROR LOGS
Error Log section provides information about transactions performed by Saferpay that could not be completed successfully.
Error details provided by payment gateway will be logged and displayed in order details under ‘Error Response Tab’.
RECURRING PAYMENT MODULE
COMPATIBILITY WITH WOOCOMMERCE SUBSCRIPTION PLUGIN
We have implemented Saferpay WooCommerce Gateway to be compatible with the WooCommerce Subscription (https://woocommerce.com/products/woocommercesubscriptions/) plugin version 4.4.0. After installing the Saferpay and WooCommerce Subscription plugin, you can filter the recurring supported payment methods from Saferpay general settings. Only the selected payment methods will be listed on the checkout page for subscription orders.
CONFIGURATIONS FOR RECURRING MODULE
- Recurring SCA challenge for PSD2 Compliance
Saferpay module is compatible with WooCommerce Subscription plugin. This field is applicable only for orders with subscription products. It ensures the PSD2 compliance of the recurring payments done through Saferpay while WooCommerce Subscription plugin is enabled. - Recurring supported payment methods.
If your customer adds any subscription to the cart, only gateway specific payment methods will be available at checkout. Make sure selected payment gateways are properly configured by going to WooCommerce > Settings > Payments.
Saferpay plugin is compatible with the following features of WooCommerce Subscription plugin,
- Subscriptions
- Manual renewal
- Subscription Cancellation
- Subscription Suspension
- Subscription Reactivation
- Subscription Amount Changes
- Subscription Date Changes
- Multiple Subscriptions (Multiple subscription products in same order)
The following Saferpay payment methods are supported for subscription orders.
- VISA
- MASTERCARD
- AMERICAN EXPRESS
- DINERS
- JCB
- GOOGLEPAY
- SEPA ELV
- APPLEPAY
- CREDIT CARD (SAFERPAY FIELDS)
- TWINT – Payment possible only if there is already saved card data available
- POSTFINANCE PAY – Payment possible only if there is already saved card data available
The renewal subscription orders are created through WooCommerce subscriptions cron. A new subscription order is placed when the scheduled time arrives. If the subscription payment fails, then the subscription gets on-hold and future renewal process not works until the subscription status changed to Active. Merchant can cancel the subscription if requires. During this time the customer is notified with an e-mail, for him/her to go through the process again that is, to reactivate subscription (via my-account) by paying the amount. The payment details are saved in the Saferpay and Wordpress backend provides list of child orders associated with each subscription.
LIMITATIONS IDENTIFIED WITH THE RECURRING PAYMENT MODULE
- Checkout with zero amount. (e.g. Free trial and zero signup fee) : The actual supported payment methods for this condition are Credit Cards, Twint and Postcard. But we ignored the methods Twint and Postcard because they can do recurring ONLY via Alias and Authorize Direct. While doing the zero payment normally, we are actually saving the card instead of the processing the payment, so it would be difficult to implement it for Twint and Postcard. So currently Credit Cards only supports the zero payment.
- In Apple Pay ‘pay by wallet’ option, it is possible to checkout subscription product with some cards which does not support recurring payments. E.g. Maestro- even if checkout is possible actual subscription and related features may not work here as Maestro does not support recurring payments.
- In Saferpay back-office normally when an auto renewal is triggered, it creates an order as a child of the first order. But the case is different for manual renewal, when a user does the manual renewal through checkout, that order will be created as a completely new order and there won't be a relation between previous orders under the same subscription. But in WordPress each auto and manual renewals will be placed under the initial parent order itself.
- Saferpay WooCommerce Gateway does not support the following features of WooCommerce Subscription plugin.
- Subscription payment method change
- Subscription payment method change by customer
- Subscription payment method change by admin
The Saferpay API itself does not provide any support for payment method change, because they need to re-initiate the whole process to implement this. So we also have some limitations to do this.
STRING TRANSLATION USING WPML
If translations are not available after updating the plugin to latest version, you need to import the .po file again. .po files can be found inside the plugin folder under “saferpay_woocommerce_gateway/languages/ Woocommerce-gateway-saferpay-de.po”.
