WooCommerce Dwolla Payment Gateway 1.7.0
Wordpress Plugins WooCommerce.com 4.8 (2.0K reviews)
This is a WooCommerce extension developed by Woothemes that connects your online store to the Dwolla payment network. Dwolla is an online payment gateway that works directly with your financial institution, which means payments move from one bank account to another without the usual credit card rails. That direct transfer is what makes the payment experience safer, cheaper, and more efficient in many cases. The plugin adds Dwolla as a checkout option inside WooCommerce, so customers can choose to pay through the network instead of entering a card number. It is built specifically for WooCommerce, so it fits into the same setup and configuration flow as other payment gateways you may already use. For anyone running a WooCommerce store, this extension simply makes that alternative available without needing to build a custom integration or manage a separate checkout process. The result is a straightforward addition to your store that expands the payment options your customers see at checkout.
The main appeal of Dwolla is its cost structure. Transactions under ten dollars are free, and any transaction above that costs a flat quarter. That flat fee is a significant departure from the percentage-based fees that credit card processors typically charge, which can eat into the margin on both small and large purchases. There are no contracts, crazy fees, or hidden costs associated with the payment network. Because the money moves between bank accounts, there is no need to handle card numbers, which also removes the risk of credit card fraud and the burden of PCI compliance. Store owners looking to reduce payment processing costs will find that Dwolla offers a predictable and inexpensive alternative. For micro-transactions, in particular, the free pricing means you can sell items for a dollar or two without losing money to processing fees. The flat quarter fee applies to any purchase above ten dollars, so the math stays simple for you and your customers.
Several specific features stand out when you look at how this gateway works with your store. Free micro-transactions make it practical to sell low-priced items or digital goods without losing money to processing fees, and the absence of percentage-based fees means you do not have to worry about a large purchase eating into your profits. Eliminating credit card fees is another clear benefit, because you are not paying interchange rates or assessment fees that come with card payments. The risk of credit card fraud is also removed, because the payment method does not rely on credit card numbers at all. This also means you do not need to worry about PCI compliance, which can be a significant administrative burden. There are no contracts, crazy fees, or hidden costs, so the pricing you see is the pricing you get. When you add those factors together, the plugin will give your store a low-cost payment option that is straightforward to understand and maintain.
Developed by Woothemes, the extension is built specifically for the WooCommerce platform, which means it is designed to integrate cleanly with your existing store. The plugin itself is a standard WordPress installation package, so you install it the same way you would install any other plugin. Once active, it adds Dwolla to the list of payment options at checkout, giving your customers another way to pay without having to enter credit card details. For store owners, the value is in offering a payment method that is cheap, simple to understand, and free from the usual card processing complications. It does not replace other payment gateways; it simply adds an additional option for shoppers who prefer to use Dwolla. There is no need to change the way you run your store or to deal with an external payment page, because the entire checkout process stays within WooCommerce. The entire experience feels like a natural part of your store rather than a separate service.
