Secure Your WooCommerce Payments With CODARAB Redirect Plugin
Summary
Learn how the CODARAB Redirect Plugin helps high-risk businesses securely redirect WooCommerce checkouts while transferring order data. Boost conversions and compliance now.
Introduction
High-risk businesses often face challenges with payment processing due to strict regulations and PCI compliance requirements. If your WooCommerce store operates in a high-risk industry (e.g., CBD, gaming, or pharmaceuticals), redirecting customers to a secure, low-risk payment gateway is critical. The CODARAB Redirect Plugin for WooCommerce solves this by seamlessly transferring customers from your high-risk site (Website A) to a compliant checkout page (Website B) without changing the URL in the browser. This ensures a smooth user experience while mitigating risk.
In this guide, we’ll explain how to set up redirects at three critical stages of the checkout process, all while transferring WooCommerce cart data (items, quantities, totals) securely.
Why Redirect WooCommerce Checkouts for High-Risk Businesses?
Redirecting payments to a low-risk website offers:
- PCI Compliance: Reduce liability by processing payments on a secure, PCI-compliant platform.
- Higher Approval Rates: Low-risk gateways often approve more transactions.
- Seamless UX: Customers stay on your domain (Website A), preventing cart abandonment.
- Data Accuracy: Transfer order details (products, pricing) to avoid manual entry errors.
How the CODARAB Redirect Plugin Works
The CODARAB Redirect Plugin for WooCommerce offers three flexible redirect options, all while keeping customers on your original domain:
- Redirect on “Add to Cart”/”Buy Now” Click
- Automatically sends customers to Website B’s checkout page after adding items to their cart.
- WooCommerce data (items, quantities, totals) transfers instantly.
- Ideal for single-product stores or quick purchases.
- Redirect on “Proceed to Checkout” Click
- Triggers the redirect when users click the checkout button on Website A.
- Preserves cart data and redirects to Website B’s checkout within the same tab/URL.
- Perfect for multi-step checkout flows.
- Redirect on “Place Order” Click
- Redirects users after they fill in billing/shipping details on Website A.
- All order data (customer info, cart contents) transfers to Website B for payment confirmation.
- Best for businesses requiring address validation before payment.
