Wallet Up - Cash App, Venmo, PayPal, Zelle & QR Code Payments

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.
