WHMCS is a leading client management, billing & support solution for web hosts and service providers. By integrating the Haveno Payment Gateway, you can start accepting fully decentralized, private, peer-to-peer payments, without relying on any central payment processor.
π§ Plugin: HavenoPay for WHMCS
Status: In development
Version: 0.1.0 (Mocked Interface)
This plugin allows any WHMCS-based service provider to receive payment via the Haveno Network. Customers can settle invoices in Monero, fiat (via bank transfer), stablecoins, or any supported method through decentralized multi-hop payment routing.
π¦ Features
Feature | Description |
---|---|
Decentralized Payments | Accept payments from anyone, anywhere β no gateway, no middlemen. |
Multi-format settlement | Settle invoices using bank transfers, XMR, BTC, stablecoins, or even gift cards. |
Signed Webhook Notifications | Receive signed payment confirmations via the Haveno relay net (tamper-proof). |
Invoice Matching | Haveno creates a unique Offer-ID per invoice to guarantee invoice integrity. |
WHMCS Module Settings UI | Set accepted currencies, price oracles, offer timeout, and receive account details. |
Refund Offer Support (Future) | Optional refund flows using signed, bidirectional offers. |
No KYC Required | Preserve user and merchant privacy by eliminating third-party escrow or API calls. |
π How It Works (Technical Flow)
- Customer places order on your WHMCS-hosted site.
- WHMCS generates an invoice, and calls the
havenopay.php
payment module. - The module:
- Registers the invoice with Haveno
- Creates a signed payment offer visible on the Haveno P2P network
- Displays the Offer ID + amount + QR/URI for the customer
- Customer fulfills payment via their Haveno app (mobile or desktop).
- Once settled, a signed webhook is sent to your WHMCS install via your
webhook.php
. - The invoice is marked paid automatically β no polling required.
