If your store runs on a supported e-commerce platform, use Float’s official plugin instead of building a custom integration — you get the same hosted payment flow with a configuration-only setup.

WooCommerce

Float payment gateway plugin for WordPress/WooCommerce.

Shopify

Float as an additional payment method on Shopify checkouts.

Magento

Float payment module for Magento / Adobe Commerce.

​
How plugins work

Under the hood every plugin uses the same flow documented in these docs: it creates a checkout, redirects the shopper to Float’s hosted payment page, and consumes the signed callback to update the platform’s order status. That means everything in How Float works — statuses, fulfilment rules, refund windows — applies to plugin merchants too.

​
Setup

  1. Request credentials from your Float account manager — you’ll receive plugin configuration values for sandbox and production.
  2. Install the plugin for your platform (your Float contact will provide the package or listing link and a platform-specific setup guide).
  3. Enter your credentials in the plugin settings and enable test mode to run against the sandbox.
  4. Place a test order end to end, then switch to production credentials.
Float maintains test shops for each supported platform and can provide access during your onboarding for verification.

​
Refunds from your platform

Plugin merchants can request refunds through the Float merchant portal, or via the refunds API if you have API credentials. The same constraints apply — refunds are possible from 1 to 100 days after the original transaction.

​
When to go custom instead

Choose a custom API integration when you:
  • run a bespoke storefront or native app checkout,
  • need programmatic refunds wired into your own back office, or
  • are a platform integrating Float on behalf of multiple merchants — see Intermediaries.
