WooCommerce and SSL

  • Hi,

    I am wondering about SSL and WooCommerce. What I have now is WooCommerce and a 3rd party plugin which will bring customer to another payment website where the customer will enter their payment details etc. After everything finish, they’ll be directed back to my store, and everything is complete.

    The payment website itself is 3rd party website, and has its own SSL cert. Since WooCommerce/WP only acts as mediator of transactions, do we need SSL for checkout page, etc? Do any 3rd party payment website transmit credit card details to WooCommerce that need protection?

    Thanks.

    If your gateway is offsite, SSL is not required.

    However, as a customer I would still expect you to use SSL regardless to make me feel safe. Consider it anyway.
