Accept payments in WooCommerce using the Miden payment platform.

== Description ==

The Miden Payment Gateway for WooCommerce allows merchants to accept payments through the Miden platform using WooCommerce’s standard checkout flow.

The plugin redirects customers to a hosted Miden checkout page to complete payment securely. Once payment is completed, customers are returned to the store and the order status is updated accordingly.

This plugin requires WooCommerce to be installed and active.

== External services ==

This plugin connects to external payment services operated by Miden to create payment sessions and process customer payments.

The services are required to generate a hosted checkout payment link and to complete payment transactions securely. These actions cannot be performed locally within WordPress.

### Buzapay Payment Gateway API

**What the service is and what it is used for**
The plugin connects to the Buzapay Payment Gateway API, which is used by the Miden platform to generate hosted checkout payment links and process payment transactions.

**Service provider**
Buzapay (operated by Miden)

**Domain(s)**
- https://api.buzapay.com
- https://sandbox-merchant.buzapay.com

**What data is sent and when**
When a customer places an order and selects Miden as the payment method, the plugin sends the following data to the Buzapay API:
- Order amount
- Currency

- Customer email address
- Customer phone number
- Transaction reference
