To use it you need a vPOS agreement with Ameriabank; the bank issues the credentials that the plugin needs.<\/p>\n\n<h4>How a payment works<\/h4>\n\n<p>Once the plugin is configured, Ameriabank appears as a payment method at the checkout. The customer picks it, the shop sends them to the bank's secure payment page, and the bank returns them to the shop afterwards with the result. No card details ever pass through the shop.<\/p>\n\n<p>When the customer comes back, the shop asks the bank directly what happened before the order is marked as paid. The payment identifier, the order reference, the amount, the currency and the payment state all have to agree. An order is never marked paid on the strength of the return address alone.<\/p>\n\n<p>Completed payments can be seen both in the WooCommerce orders screen and in the console Ameriabank provides.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Features<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Card payments through Visa, Mastercard and ArCa<\/li>\n<li>Apple Pay and Google Pay as separate checkout options, each shown only on devices that can use it<\/li>\n<li>Saved cards, so returning customers can pay without re-entering their details<\/li>\n<li>Cancel a payment within 72 hours, and refund in full or in part, from the order screen<\/li>\n<li>Payments in Armenian drams, Russian roubles, US dollars, euros, Swedish kronor and British pounds<\/li>\n<li>Two-stage payments, where the amount is held first and captured later<\/li>\n<li>Recurring payments with WooCommerce Subscriptions<\/li>\n<li>Editable payment method name and description<\/li>\n<li>Test mode and a technical log<\/li>\n<li>Works with WPML and Polylang: the bank's page opens in the language the customer is browsing in, and the return, the order page and the e-mails follow the language the order was placed in<\/li>\n<li>Full support for WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage<\/li>\n<li>Works with both the classic checkout and the block based checkout<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>Apple Pay and Google Pay<\/h4>\n\n<p>Both are switched off by default and each has its own checkbox in the settings. Before switching one on, Ameriabank has to enable that functionality for your merchant account.<\/p>\n\n<p>If you use the bank's vPOS service, Apple Pay and Google Pay are available to you at no extra charge. You can apply for vPOS through the Online MyBusiness platform: https:\/\/ameriabank.am\/ameria-business\/en\/products\/acquiring\/vpos<\/p>\n\n<h4>No activation key<\/h4>\n\n<p>The plugin needs no identification step and no activation token. Every setting is available as soon as it is activated.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Contacting the bank<\/h4>\n\n<p>For credentials, terms and pricing, contact Ameriabank CJSC on 010 56 11 11 (card and payment infrastructure department) or at vpos.support@ameriabank.am<\/p>\n\n<h4>Requirements<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>A WordPress site with WooCommerce installed<\/li>\n<li>A vPOS agreement with Ameriabank

payment, and to confirm, cancel or refund a payment. The order number, order amount, currency, a short order description and your merchant credentials are sent for each payment. This is required for the gateway to work. Details of the vPOS service, and the form to apply for it, are at https:\/\/ameriabank.am\/ameria-business\/en\/products\/acquiring\/vpos<\/p>\n\n<p>When the plugin is installed, and again after each update, it sends a one-off notification to https:\/\/plugins.hkdigital.am containing four values: the site domain, the plugin version, the e-mail address of the administrator performing the installation, and whether the gateway is switched on. HK Digital uses this to provide support and to notify you about updates. It is sent once per version and never from front-end page loads. No IP addresses are collected, and no customer, order or payment data is sent.

It stores them in the WooCommerce payment method settings and sends them to the bank only when it registers or looks up a payment. For anything to do with how the credentials are issued and used, and with the bank's own console and pricing, please contact Ameriabank.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt id=\"do%20i%20need%20an%20activation%20key%20or%20a%20licence%20token%3F\"><h3>Do I need an activation key or a licence token?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>No. Nothing has to be entered to unlock the plugin, and it contacts no licensing service.

Apple Pay is shown on Apple devices in Safari; Google Pay elsewhere. Shop managers see both options whatever device they are using, so that the settings can be checked.<\/p>\n\n<p>Neither can be saved for future payments, so orders that save a card, and subscription renewals, always use the card form.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt id=\"the%20shop%20will%20not%20take%20payments%20in%20dollars\"><h3>The shop will not take payments in dollars<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>Multi-currency payments have to be enabled by the bank for your merchant account.

A payment can be cancelled within 72 hours of being made, which reverses it in full. After that, and at any time, you can refund the whole amount or part of it using the Refund button on the order.

The check was made against the order's already-changed status, so no cancellation request was ever sent.<\/li>\n<li>The 72 hour cancellation window was measured with the site's time zone offset applied to only one side of the comparison.<\/li>\n<li>Refunds now report failure instead of setting an invalid order status, and partial refunds are counted correctly.<\/li>\n<li>Deleting one saved card left the customer's remaining cards unreadable.<\/li>\n<li>The scheduled check for unfinished payments never ran because of a coding error.<\/li>\n<li>Removed a fatal error that could be triggered by any order on the site whose payment gateway is no longer installed.<\/li>\n<li>Diagnostic output during a subscription payment was stopping the scheduled task.<\/li>\n<li>The description sent to the bank is now plain ASCII; the bank's page rendered Armenian and Cyrillic as question marks.<\/li>\n<li>Added the response codes that were missing from the error table, in all three languages.<\/li>\n<li>When the shop cannot reach the bank, the reason is written to the log and to the order notes.<\/li>\n<li>Everything the plugin adds is now declared at the moment WooCommerce asks for it, so the payment options cannot be left out of the checkout by another plugin loading first.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>Other<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Removed the identification screen and the activation token.
