Deactivate Payment Gateway Per Product – Manage High-Risk Payments
Deactivate Payment Gateway Per Product – Manage High-Risk Payments is a professional WooCommerce plugin designed to give store owners full control over which payment methods are available for each product based on price, risk level, and business strategy.
This solution is specifically built to protect WooCommerce merchants from high-risk transactions, chargebacks, fraudulent disputes, frozen balances, and permanent payment gateway suspensions on platforms such as PayPal and Stripe.
Understanding High-Risk Payments in WooCommerce
WooCommerce is one of the most flexible eCommerce platforms in the world, but its default payment system treats all products equally. Whether a product costs $5 or $5,000, the same payment methods are usually available at checkout.
This creates a major problem for merchants selling high-ticket or high-risk products.
Payment gateways like PayPal and Stripe allow customers to open disputes weeks or even months after a transaction. In many cases, sellers lose the dispute even if the product has already been delivered.
Official documentation confirms this risk:
PayPal – Customer Disputes, Claims, and Chargebacks
Stripe – How Disputes and Chargebacks Work
Repeated disputes can lead to:
- Temporary account limitations
- Frozen balances
- Increased processing fees
- Permanent account bans
Once a PayPal or Stripe account is banned, recovery is extremely difficult or impossible.
Why Per-Product Payment Control Is Essential
Not all products carry the same level of financial risk.
Low-priced products under $30 typically have minimal impact if a dispute occurs. High-ticket products over $300, however, can result in devastating losses from a single chargeback.
This plugin allows WooCommerce merchants to apply intelligent payment rules based on product price, making risk management automatic and scalable.
How the Plugin Works
Deactivate Payment Gateway Per Product introduces conditional logic into WooCommerce checkout.
You define price-based rules that determine which payment gateways are available for each product.
Example logic:
- Products under $30: All payment methods enabled
- Products between $30 and $299: Selected gateways enabled
- Products over $300: High-risk gateways disabled
For high-risk products, you can enforce safer alternatives such as cryptocurrency payments, which do not allow chargebacks.
Practical Example
A WooCommerce store offers three payment methods:
- PayPal
- Stripe
- Cryptocurrency
The store sells both low-cost and high-ticket products.
| Product Price | Enabled Payment Methods | Risk Level |
|---|---|---|
| Below $30 | PayPal, Stripe, Crypto | Low |
| $30 – $299 | Stripe, Crypto | Medium |
| $300+ | Crypto Only | High |
This configuration dramatically reduces exposure to disputes while maintaining flexibility for lower-risk orders.
