VERIFIED Crypto Checkout is WooCommerce-native card-to-crypto routing and settlement infrastructure. It connects WooCommerce orders to independent provider-hosted checkout pages and is designed to deliver settlement to a merchant-controlled wallet, with USDC on Polygon as the intended settlement route.
WooCommerce remains the system of record for the order. The hosted provider controls customer verification, payment-method availability, risk checks, transaction approval, conversion, and settlement execution. VERIFIED creates and tracks the checkout session, coordinates the order status, and provides reconciliation tools. VERIFIED does not process card data or custody merchant funds.
This model can provide a checkout continuity layer when traditional merchant-account underwriting is unavailable or unreliable. It is not a bypass, a guarantee of approval, or a way to avoid provider rules. Customer and transaction eligibility remain subject to each provider’s terms, KYC/AML controls, regional support, and applicable law.

How Card-to-Crypto Checkout Works
01A customer selects VERIFIED at WooCommerce checkout or opens a payment link, invoice, renewal link, recovery link, or QR payment request.
02WooCommerce creates or identifies the order and remains the merchant’s operational record.
03VERIFIED creates a session and routes the customer to an independent hosted provider.
04The provider handles any required identity verification, payment authentication, eligibility checks, and payment execution.
05If approved, the provider converts the payment and sends settlement toward the wallet configured by the merchant.
06VERIFIED validates the returned amount and available on-chain evidence. An order without sufficient settlement proof is held for review rather than made shippable.
07Confirmed transaction details are written back to WooCommerce for order management and reconciliation.

Routing and Provider Availability
Auto-Routing selects from available provider options based on the upstream route. Merchants can also expose individual gateways. The codebase includes integrations for providers and payment methods such as Coinbase, Stripe, PayPal, Robinhood, Ramp Network, Revolut, Banxa, Binance, Blockchain.com, Topper, Sardine, Particle, Interac, Cash App, Apple Pay, and Google Pay.
Provider availability is dynamic. Supported countries, payment methods, minimums, KYC requirements, fees, limits, and approval decisions vary by provider and may change. The plugin identifies discontinued or impaired routes in wp-admin; merchants should keep at least one active route enabled and review provider notices before accepting live orders.
Operational Workflows
Use existing orders to send expiring Pay Now links or display in-person QR codes. Use WooCommerce > Request Payment for standalone links and branded invoices. Automated Recovery follows up on eligible first-time abandoned sessions with merchant-controlled timing, incentives, backup providers, and reporting. Supported subscription plugins use scheduled, customer-authorized renewal links instead of silent stored-card rebilling.

Settlement, Fees, and Risk
The intended settlement route is USDC on Polygon to the merchant’s configured wallet. The provider chooses the actual settlement at purchase time and may instead settle USDT, another stablecoin, or a native coin (ETH, POL or BNB) on Polygon, Ethereum or BNB Chain. The configured wallet address receives on all three networks, so it must be a self-custodial EVM wallet – not an exchange deposit address, which may not credit an unexpected asset or network. The plugin’s settlement verifier evaluates the actual on-chain result on whichever of these networks the payment landed and either completes the order when adequately proven or holds it for merchant review. Merchants must verify wallet compatibility and protect their private keys.
VERIFIED charges a 4% infrastructure fee on successfully confirmed transactions. The merchant can absorb it or add it as a customer-paid WooCommerce fee. Hosted providers charge separate provider-side conversion, payment, and possible network fees. Fees, net settlement, and timing vary by route; VERIFIED does not control provider pricing or guarantee settlement time. See the fees transparency guide and risk disclosure .
On-chain settlement does not create a traditional card-acquiring chargeback process against a WooCommerce merchant account. It does not eliminate customer disputes, fraud, provider action before settlement, blockchain risk, stablecoin risk, wallet risk, or legal obligations.
When This Model Fits
VERIFIED may fit merchants that want WooCommerce order control, hosted card-to-crypto execution, wallet settlement, multiple provider routes, or a continuity option when conventional acquiring is unavailable. It may not fit businesses that require fiat bank settlement, embedded card fields, silent stored-card rebilling, guaranteed approval, fixed provider availability, or freedom from customer identity verification.
Manual Zelle, Cash App, Venmo and PayPal Payments
Want to accept Zelle, Cash App, Venmo or PayPal on your WooCommerce store? The plugin includes four optional manual payment methods for these services, free to use alongside the card-to-crypto checkout. They are off by default and USD only. Customers pay you directly; you confirm each payment yourself.
How it works:
08At checkout (Classic Checkout or Checkout Blocks) the customer chooses one of these methods and enters the name and account they will pay from.
09WooCommerce creates the order On hold and reserves stock. The customer is shown, and emailed, your receiving account, the exact amount and a unique payment memo such as VZL-1847-X7KQ, with copy buttons.
10The customer pays from their banking app (Zelle), Cash App, Venmo or PayPal, then taps “I sent the payment”. You get an email showing exactly what to look for.
11When the money is in your account, click “Confirm payment received”. WooCommerce marks the order paid and sends its normal confirmation email.
Features:
Unique payment memo per order for fast reconciliation
Copy buttons and mobile-friendly instructions on the order-received and My Account pages
“Open Cash App”, “Open Venmo” and (for PayPal.Me usernames) “Open PayPal” links with the amount pre-filled, plus a scannable QR code on desktop
PayPal instructions tell customers to choose “Paying for an item or service”, not Friends and Family
“I sent the payment” reporting that never marks an order paid on its own
Manual Payments reconciliation queue with search, plus badges and filters in the WooCommerce Orders list (HPOS and legacy order storage)
Five editable WooCommerce emails: payment instructions, reminder and payment-not-found for customers; new order and “customer says they paid” for you
Optional minimum and maximum order totals, payment deadline and automatic cancellation of unpaid, unreported orders
No API keys and no VERIFIED fee: the 4% infrastructure fee applies only to card checkout
Account eligibility: the plugin does not ask for or assume an account type. Please ensure your payment account is eligible for its intended use and complies with your payment provider’s applicable terms.
VERIFIED provides checkout software only. It does not process, receive, hold, transmit or verify these payments, and it does not connect to Zelle, Cash App, Venmo or PayPal. Zelle and the Zelle related marks are owned by Early Warning Services, LLC; Cash App is a trademark of Block, Inc.; Venmo and PayPal are trademarks of PayPal, Inc. They are used here only to

Gettingstarted.
01Install and activate the plugin, then open WooCommerce > Settings > Payments.
02Review the terms and enable Auto-Routing or one or more available VERIFIED gateways.
03Enter a merchant-controlled wallet compatible with the intended Polygon USDC route.
04Configure fee handling, notices, recovery, receipt, and payment-request options.
05Run a controlled test and verify the wallet, order status, email, and reconciliation workflow before launch.
06Optional: to accept Zelle, Cash App, Venmo or PayPal, open WooCommerce > Settings > Payments, enable the method, enter your receiving account, then review the manual payment emails under WooCommerce > Settings > Emails.
It is a WooCommerce checkout-layer plugin that creates, routes, tracks, and reconciles provider-hosted card-to-crypto payment sessions. It is infrastructure, not a bank, acquirer, exchange, or custodian.
Does VERIFIED approve the customer or transaction?
No. The hosted provider controls KYC, risk checks, payment availability, transaction approval, limits, and regional eligibility.
Where does settlement go?
The intended route sends USDC on Polygon to the merchant-configured wallet. Provider execution can vary: a payment may settle on Polygon, Ethereum or BNB Chain, and the plugin verifies it on whichever network it landed. Use a self-custodial EVM wallet that can receive on all three, and review actual settlement records.
How are unverified or underpaid orders handled?
The settlement guard checks the returned amount and on-chain evidence. If settlement cannot be sufficiently verified, the order is held for review instead of being marked ready to ship.
Can I send payment links or accept QR payments?
Yes. Generate payment links and invoice requests from WooCommerce admin, send Pay Now links from orders, or display an in-person QR code for an unpaid order.
What does the plugin cost?
VERIFIED charges a 4% infrastructure fee on successfully confirmed transactions. The merchant may absorb it or configure it as customer-paid. Provider and network costs are separate.
Can I accept Zelle payments in WooCommerce?
Yes. Enable the Zelle method and enter the email or U.S. mobile number you receive Zelle payments with. After ordering, customers see your details, the exact amount and a unique memo, and pay from their banking app. You confirm the payment in WooCommerce.
Can I accept Cash App payments on my WooCommerce store?
Yes. Enable the Cash App method and enter your $Cashtag. Customers can tap “Open Cash App” with the amount filled in, add the order memo, and tell you they paid. You confirm receipt with one click.
Can I accept Venmo payments in WooCommerce?
Yes. Enable the Venmo method and enter your Venmo username. Customers get an “Open Venmo” link with the amount filled in. If you prefer an automatic Venmo button, WooCommerce PayPal Payments also offers one for U.S. buyers.
Which account can I receive payments into?
The plugin only needs your receiving details (Zelle email or phone, $Cashtag or Venmo username) and does not ask for or assume an account type. Please ensure your payment account is eligible for its intended use and complies with your payment provider’s applicable terms.
Are Zelle, Cash App, Venmo and PayPal payments verified automatically?
No. These are manual payments. The plugin gives each order a unique memo, collects the sender’s details and helps you match payments, but you confirm each one after checking your account. Orders stay On hold until you do. No VERIFIED fee applies to these orders.
Can underwriting-restricted merchants use it?
The plugin does not require a traditional merchant-account application to install, which can make it useful as continuity infrastructure. Use is still subject to lawful products, provider terms, customer eligibility, KYC/AML controls, regional availability, and transaction approval.
