If you operate an eCommerce site targeting customers in Southeast Asia, incorporating suitable payment methods is vital. One standout option is GrabPay, a digital wallet gaining traction in countries like Singapore, Indonesia, and Malaysia.

As we have observed in our experience of building numerous eCommerce sites with WordPress, having the right payment options can significantly enhance sales. A smooth checkout process is essential, and offering a preferred digital wallet like GrabPay can improve convenience for users.

In this guide, we’ll explore two simple methods to set up GrabPay payments in WordPress, making it easy for your customers to check out.

Why Set Up GrabPay Payments in WordPress?

For businesses aiming to serve Southeast Asian customers, integrating GrabPay is a wise choice. It is a well-established digital wallet widely used for everyday transactions, which can lead to greater customer satisfaction.

Utilizing GrabPay also allows businesses to engage with Grab’s ecosystem, including GrabRewards, a loyalty program that encourages shopping. Customers earn points with each transaction, promoting return visits and potentially increasing spending.

GrabPay is user-friendly, permitting wallet top-ups via credit cards, bank transfers, or local payment methods. Payments can be completed quickly with just a few taps on a smartphone, and the app supports QR code scanning for easy transactions.

Let’s delve into the methods for setting up GrabPay payments in WordPress.

Method 1: Set Up a GrabPay Payment Form in WordPress

This method is ideal for those who want to add a GrabPay payment form to their WordPress site without creating a full online store. It works well for instances like accepting donations or membership fees.

The most straightforward way to implement a GrabPay payment form is through the WP Simple Pay plugin. It is beginner-friendly and allows for easy creation of payment forms.

To get started, install and activate the WP Simple Pay plugin. After activation, you’ll encounter a setup wizard. Follow the prompts, including entering your license key and connecting the plugin to your Stripe account.

Next, proceed to configure your email preferences for payment notifications and invoices, followed by creating your payment form.

Select the “GrabPay Payment Form” template to customize your form. Input relevant details like form title, description, and payment settings. Ensure to set the currency to a Southeast Asian currency to display the GrabPay option.

Once set, publish your payment form and either create a new page or incorporate it into an existing post using the WP Simple Pay block.

Method 2: Set Up GrabPay as a Payment Option in WooCommerce

For those using WooCommerce, enabling GrabPay in your store requires installing the Stripe Payment Plugin for WooCommerce. After activation, link your Stripe account to the plugin.

Go to the WebToffee settings page in your dashboard and enable GrabPay as a payment method. Customize your order button text and ensure your customers understand that GrabPay is limited to Southeast Asia.

After saving your changes, customers will see GrabPay as an option during checkout.

Bonus: Accept SEPA Payments in WordPress

Similar to GrabPay in Southeast Asia, SEPA (Single Euro Payments Area) is a popular payment method in Europe. It streamlines euro transactions, making it easier and cheaper for users across member countries.

If you wish to accept SEPA payments, you can also do this with the WP Simple Pay plugin, which offers a dedicated template for SEPA direct debits.

By setting up GrabPay or SEPA payments, you ensure that your WordPress site accommodates your customers’ needs, potentially driving sales and enhancing user experience.
