• Diners Club
• Discover
• eftpos Australia
• Japan Credit Bureau (JCB)
• Mastercard
• Visa

Mastercard and Visa can be accepted by merchants in every country. Other brands have some restrictions, but they are few and rarely encountered in practice.

Express checkout methods allow customers to pay even faster using their phone or any compatible device. WooPayments has the following built-in express checkout methods:

• Apple Pay
• Google Pay
• Link by Stripe
• WooPay

Please also see the Apple Pay and Google Pay compatibility page for more information.

You can change the order in which the WooPayments payment methods are shown in the checkout using a code snippet. Please see the example code below.

add_filter( 'option_woocommerce_gateway_order', 'my_custom_gateway_order', 1 );

function my_custom_gateway_order( $ordering ) {
	return [
		'woocommerce_payments_klarna' 	=> 0,
		'woocommerce_payments_affirm' 	=> 1,
		'woocommerce_payments'		=> 2,
	];
}

There are a few things to be aware of when using such a snippet:

• Our support staff cannot help write, modify, or troubleshoot custom code. The snippet above is merely an example for educational purposes.
• Any payment methods you have enabled but not assigned to a specific index will be added to the end of the list.
• Using a priority higher than 1 may result in the snippet not working.

If you’re looking for other payment providers, such as PayPal, Authorize.net, or Square, those (and others!) are available as separate extensions.
