GamiPress WooCommerce Points Gateway is an official GamiPress add-on that turns the point types registered on your site into a fully functional payment gateway within WooCommerce. Designed for stores that already use GamiPress's gamification system, this add-on allows your customers to complete entire purchases by spending the points they have accumulated, without needing to resort to traditional payment methods like PayPal or Stripe.
How it works is simple and straightforward: each point type you have configured in GamiPress is automatically registered as a new payment gateway in the WooCommerce checkout section. You define the conversion rate between points and currency, and the add-on automatically performs the conversions on each purchase. For example, if you set a conversion of 100 points per dollar, a customer can complete a $10 purchase by spending 1,000 points from their balance.
Its most notable features include the ability to enable any point type as a payment gateway, configure different conversion rates for each point type, and award points to the product seller when the store operates with multiple vendors. Additionally, the add-on automatically restores the user's points when a refund is processed, and displays the total points required both at checkout and in the order details.
This add-on is designed for full payments, meaning the customer must cover the entire purchase total with their points. If you are looking to allow partial payments or discounts at checkout, GamiPress offers a complementary add-on called WooCommerce Partial Payments. The add-on is fully compatible with WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS), ensuring its proper functioning in the most recent versions of WooCommerce.
Ideal for online stores, membership sites, course platforms, and communities looking to incentivize user loyalty, GamiPress WooCommerce Points Gateway turns gamification into tangible value that your customers can redeem directly in your store.
