Why online stores choose CC Payments

We install the plugin. You ship the orders.

Most ecommerce payment gateways give you API docs and a sandbox. We install the plugin on your store, configure the rates, wire up webhooks for order status, test the full flow end-to-end, and monitor it afterwards. Zero dev time for your team.

Our developers do the build

WooCommerce, Magento 2, Shopify, PrestaShop or bespoke. Our engineers install, configure and ship — even for custom themes and headless storefronts.

Higher conversion at checkout

Embedded card fields, Apple Pay and Google Pay one-tap, and saved-card tokenisation for returning shoppers. Every tap of friction removed.

Rates that beat the incumbents

Show us your last statement from Stripe, Worldpay, Adyen or Shopify Payments. In most cases we save you money on day one, especially on AOVs above £50.

Platforms

Drop-in plugins for every major ecommerce stack

Every ecommerce platform has its own payment quirks. WooCommerce needs a plugin that plays nicely with blocks checkout, WooCommerce Subscriptions and your existing email/SMS stack. Magento 2 needs a certified module with multi-store support, B2B pricing and admin MOTO. Shopify stores want a payment method that can sit alongside Shopify Payments and Shop Pay rather than replace them.

CC Payments ships all three — plus PrestaShop and a REST API for custom and headless builds — with the same managed-service model: our engineers do the install, the config and the test. You keep selling.

FAQ

Ecommerce payment processing — FAQs

What is the best payment gateway for a WooCommerce store in the UK?

The best WooCommerce payment gateway for a UK store depends on your average order value, product mix and payout needs. Stores with AOVs over £100 benefit significantly from offering Pay by Bank (Open Banking) alongside card — it costs 1% flat and eliminates chargeback risk. CC Payments provides a managed WooCommerce plugin that supports card (with Apple Pay and Google Pay), Pay by Bank, subscriptions and saved-card tokenisation, all installed and configured by our engineers. Rates typically beat Stripe, Shopify Payments and WorldPay on effective cost.

Do you provide a Magento 2 payment module?

Yes. CC Payments provides a certified Magento 2 payment module supporting multi-store setups, B2B pricing, admin MOTO, order status sync and all the major payment methods — card, Apple/Google Pay, Pay by Bank and subscriptions. Installation, configuration and testing is included in the managed service.

Can CC Payments work alongside Shopify Payments?

Yes. CC Payments can run as a secondary method in Shopify alongside Shop Pay and Shopify Payments — particularly useful for offering Pay by Bank on high-AOV baskets to save on fees and remove chargeback risk. Our team handles the app-based integration.

Do you support subscription billing and subscription boxes?

Yes. CC Payments supports recurring subscription billing with smart retries on failed payments, pause/resume, skip-a-box, automated dunning emails and a customer self-serve portal. This materially reduces involuntary churn versus legacy recurring billing solutions, and integrates cleanly with WooCommerce Subscriptions, Magento and custom ecommerce stacks.

Will I need my own developers to integrate CC Payments?

No. Integration is part of the managed service. Our engineers install and configure the plugin for your platform, wire up webhooks for order status, test the checkout flow end-to-end, and handle ongoing maintenance. This is what differentiates CC Payments from providers that simply hand you API documentation.

How do your rates compare to Stripe, Worldpay and Shopify Payments?

On effective cost, CC Payments commonly beats the headline rates at Stripe, Worldpay and Shopify Payments — especially for stores with AOVs above £50 or that offer Pay by Bank alongside card. The honest answer is we quote against your current statement rather than a rate card, so the comparison is against your real effective cost, not a headline number.
