FAQs
When do I use the Cashier E-mail field?
When do I use the Cashier E-mail field?
The cashier’s email is used to determine when to present the card reader option at the checkout:
- If the cashier’s email is entered, the card reader option is only shown if the logged-in user is the cashier. This will also help to avoid showing the card reader option to your online checkout store users.
- If you have more than 1 POS setup in your physical store, the cashier email can be used to map the reader with the POS.
Does HitPay send an email after the WooCommerce order is confirmed
Does HitPay send an email after the WooCommerce order is confirmed
No, HitPay does not send an email confirmation to your customer if the payment is made through WooCommerce. This is because WooCommerce, by default, sends an email to your customer with the order details. To prevent duplicate emails, HitPay does not send an additional email to your customers. As a merchant, you will receive a payment alert email.
Why does my charges `webhook status` show as failed?
Why does my charges `webhook status` show as failed?
If you are using a payment plugin, after every successful payment, a webhook is sent to your store to acknowledge the payment confirmation. Your order is marked as paid through this webhook.A webhook status showing as "failed" indicates that Hitpay failed to communicate with your server. This can happen for the following reasons:
- Your store may have a security feature that blocked Hitpay's request.
- Your server was unavailable during this time.
- Production:
3.1.13.32,52.77.254.34 - Sandbox:
