Description

Wallet Up is the easiest way to accept peer-to-peer payments on WordPress. Add Cash App, Venmo, PayPal, Zelle, and Meta Pay to any page, post, or WooCommerce checkout with a simple shortcode or the built-in payment gateway.

Customers scan a QR code or click a payment link — no merchant account, no monthly fees, no middleman. Payments go directly to your Cash App, Venmo, PayPal, or Zelle account.

Accept Cash App Payments on WordPress

Generate a Cash App QR code that customers scan to pay you instantly. Works on any page via shortcode or at WooCommerce checkout as a payment gateway.

Accept Venmo Payments on WordPress

Add Venmo as a payment option with auto-generated QR codes and deep links that open the Venmo app directly on mobile devices.

Accept PayPal Payments Without a Business Account

Use your personal PayPal.me link to accept payments via QR code. No PayPal Business account or API keys required.

Accept Zelle Payments on WordPress

Bank-specific QR codes that open directly in your customer’s banking app — Chase, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Citi, Capital One, and more.

WooCommerce Payment Gateway

Wallet Up registers as a full WooCommerce payment gateway. Customers select their preferred payment method at checkout, scan the QR code, and confirm payment. Orders are tracked automatically.

Grouped mode — all methods under one “Wallet Up” gateway
Individual mode — each method as its own checkout option
Mixed mode — choose which methods appear individually vs. grouped
WooCommerce Blocks — fully compatible with the new block-based checkout
Per-method discounts — offer percentage or fixed discounts for specific payment methods
Custom titles, descriptions, and instructions per payment method

QR Code Payments

Every payment method automatically generates a scannable QR code. Customers scan with their phone camera — no app download required. QR codes are styled to match your brand with customizable colors, sizes, and logos.

Shortcode System

Embed payment buttons and QR codes anywhere with simple shortcodes:

[walletup method="cashapp" amount="25"]
[walletup method="venmo" amount="50"]
[walletup method="paypal" amount="100"]
