About Hilt Pay for WooCommerce
From the official readme · v0.1.4Description
Hilt Pay uses X-Hilt-Key authentication, checks the connection with GET /v1/products?limit=1, lets merchants choose Hilt checkouts from GET /v1/products, and creates hosted checkout handoffs through POST /v1/products/{product_id}/handoff-link. Mapped Hilt templates should use the configured WooCommerce identity type, which defaults to CUSTOM.
Support and landing page: https://www.hilt.so/woocommerce
The plugin is free. There is no WooCommerce surcharge. Standard Hilt plan pricing and transaction fees apply.
Includes:
- WooCommerce offsite payment gateway.
- Admin settings for API base, API key, Hilt identity type, webhook signing secret, webhook URL, and connection health check.
- Minimum API key scope guidance: read + execute only.
- Product and variation selector for choosing the Hilt checkout/template that should fulfil each WooCommerce product.
- Hosted checkout handoff creation through POST /v1/products/{product_id}/handoff-link.

Checkout Blocks
The plugin declares Cart and Checkout Blocks compatibility and registers a no-build Checkout Blocks payment method bridge. It delegates processing to the WooCommerce payment gateway and expects WooCommerce to follow the returned offsite redirect URL.
