Developed a custom WordPress/WooCommerce plugin to integrate PayScrow’s escrow payment system into KlassifiedMall.com — a multi-vendor e-commerce platform. This plugin replaces standard checkout methods with a secure escrow flow, ensuring that funds are held in trust until transaction conditions are fulfilled, fostering trust between buyers and sellers.
The plugin leverages PayScrow’s REST API to automate transaction initiation, status syncing, and fund release notifications. Built for compatibility with WooCommerce’s checkout structure, it incorporates hooks, secure API authentication, and dynamic status updates that align with order lifecycles. Designed for flexibility and future scaling, it sets the foundation for possible white-label or SaaS plugin use cases.
This project showcases advanced skills in API integration, secure payment processing, and WooCommerce customization — all packaged in a clean, scalable plugin ready for potential adoption by PayScrow or related e-commerce platforms.
