Getting Started with GateFuz

GateFuz is an enterprise, decoupled payment gateway engine and unified transaction ledger for WordPress. It operates 100% autonomously with zero required foreign dependencies (such as WooCommerce).

  • Decoupled Engine: Works with any theme, page builder, Gutenberg, or standalone custom post type.
  • Dual Key Credentials: Isolated Sandbox and Live Production keys for Stripe, PayPal, Razorpay, Mollie, Paystack, and Braintree.
  • Unified Ledger: Central database tables for transactions (wp_gatefuz_transactions) and subscriptions (wp_gatefuz_subscriptions).
  • Cryptographic Security: Strict webhook signature validation (HMAC-SHA256, SHA512, and certificate verification) plus client-side checkout amount HMAC hashing.

  1. Activate the Plugin Ensure GateFuz is installed and active under Plugins → Installed Plugins in your WordPress administration dashboard.

  2. Verify Database Tables Upon activation, GateFuz creates its two high-performance tables. Check GateFuz → Status & Logs → Health Diagnostics to ensure wp_gatefuz_transactions and wp_gatefuz_subscriptions are active.

  3. Configure Your Gateways Navigate to GateFuz → Gateways to input your API credentials and select whether each gateway should operate in Sandbox or Live mode.

  4. Deploy Checkout UI Add the GateFuz Payment Box Gutenberg block to any page, or embed the shortcode [gatefuz_checkout amount="49.00" currency="USD"].


Once installed, GateFuz provides an all-in-one administration command center displaying real-time financial telemetry, sales velocity analytics, gateway volume distribution, and recent transactions:
