Monek Checkout connects your WooCommerce store to Monek’s secure payment platform. Version 4.0 introduced the WooCommerce Checkout Blocks experience, and version 4.3 restores support for the classic shortcode checkout and the Order Pay page so every checkout flow can take Monek payments.
The plugin mounts Monek’s hosted payment fields directly inside your checkout — Blocks or classic — with optional express wallets on the Blocks checkout. Customers stay on your site while their card details are captured securely. Merchants benefit from a guided setup that walks them through collecting API keys, enabling Apple Pay, and optionally confirming payments via webhook.

Key features:
* Secure embedded payment fields rendered inside WooCommerce Checkout Blocks.
* Optional Apple Pay and other express wallets when configured in Monek Merchant Portal.
* Payment Confirmed order status triggered by verified webhooks for added assurance.
* Simple configuration steps designed for non-technical store owners.

Checkout compatibility

This plugin works with both the WooCommerce Block-based Checkout and the classic ([woocommerce_checkout] shortcode) checkout, including the Order Pay page. The embedded Monek card form renders and completes payments on all of them.
Express Checkout / Apple Pay is available on the WooCommerce Block-based Checkout only. On the classic checkout the standard embedded card form is shown.

Configuration

1. Gather your API credentials from Monek Merchant Portal

Sign in to the Monek Merchant Portal and navigate to Settings -> Integrations page.
Under the WooCommerce Integration tab, create a new integration. Provide a display name and your domain (e.g. example.com). The domain name is required for Express Checkout and can be disabled later from the WooCommerce plugin settings if needed.
As a final step, copy the access (public) key, secret key and webhook url key before closing the pop-up window.

2. Add the credentials in WooCommerce

In WordPress, go to WooCommerce Settings Payments and select Monek.
Enter the access key, secret key and webhook url key values.
Save your changes.

3. (Optional) Use Apple Pay

Your website domain is listed against the access key you created in Monek Merchant Portal.
You can disable Apple Pay at any time by unticking Express Checkout from the plugin settings.
Test checkout from a supported Apple device or browser. The Apple Pay button will appear automatically once Apple confirms the domain.

4. (Optional) Use a webhook for Payment Confirmed

Webhook confirms payment, and the plugin updates the order status to Payment Confirmed. Use this status to track orders that have securely completed the Monek payment flow.
If you prefer to manage order status updates manually, you can remove the Webhook URL Key from the plugin settings.
