WooCommerce
Accept lower fees on your online payments in your WooCommerce store.

About Direct integration
WooCommerce is the highly customizable, open-source e-commerce platform built on WordPress, enabling merchants to build and manage powerful online stores. The Helcim Commerce plugin connects your store to your Helcim account, allowing you to accept all major credit card payments directly on your website. The plugin uses Helcim.js to securely handle credit card data during checkout, which reduces your PCI compliance scope while giving you access to Helcim’s transparent Interchange Plus processing rates.
