External Services

This plugin includes an internal script to manage device verification within the WooCommerce store environment.

The script helps ensure session consistency and transaction security.

  • Purpose: To track device sessions and enhance security during checkout and payment processing.
  • Data Sent:
    • Cookie Name: wc_whitelabelname_device_id
    • Data Stored in Cookie: A unique device identifier (hashed value).
    • When the Cookie is Set: The cookie is set when the checkout page is accessed and updated during payment processing.
    • Where the Data is Processed: All operations occur locally within the WooCommerce store and are not transmitted to external services.
  • Conditions for Use: The cookie is only set if the customer initiates a checkout session.

No personal data is sent to third-party services; all information remains within the WooCommerce store for internal verification purposes.

very bad plugin, always many Versions behind. Right now 13.02.2025 they support woocommerce which is 5 month old only. When you want to apply major security updates then the plugin doesnt work anymore.not how a payment provider should care about his product.

Wir haben über ein das Jahr PostFinance Checkout Plugin benutzt. Fazit: Das Plugin ist schlecht entwickelt, hinkt immer unzähligen WooCommerce Aktualisierungen hinterher und bei jedem Plugin Update muss man Angst haben das etwas wieder nicht funktioniert. Nie wieder. Mein Tipp an euch: Rennt so schnell wie möglich zu Datatrans, dort habt ihr mit mameDEV einen kompetenten Entwickler hinter dem WooCommerce Plugin das perfekt funktioniert, und sollte doch mal etwas nicht ganz bei der Integration mit einem Zahlungsmittel funktionieren, wird sofort auf Probleme eingegangen und diese umgehend mit einem Update gelöst. Seit dem läuft bei uns alles reibungslos.

Plugin is constantly lagging behind the WooCommerce releases. After every update, there is a risk that things will no longer work.

Jamais à jour et depuis plus d’un an avec la dernière version de woocommerce, on dirait que l’équipe ne se soucis aucunement du problème !? Bon, on dirait que cela bouge car il y avait de grandes différences de versions et aujourd’hui c’est mieux : “The plugin PostFinanceCheckout has been tested up to WooCommerce 9.3.1 but you have installed the version 9.3.2. Please notice that this is not recommended.”
