Everything You Need to Know
How does PayLexer know when to give customers access to their downloads?
PayLexer waits for payment confirmation from Checkout.com before notifying Easy Digital Downloads. Once the payment is confirmed, your store grants download access according to its normal workflow.
Why hasn't the customer received their download yet?
This usually means your store is still waiting for payment confirmation. Once PayLexer receives the confirmation from Checkout.com, Easy Digital Downloads completes the purchase automatically.
Do I need to connect PayLexer separately for every digital product?
No. Once Checkout.com is connected through PayLexer, the integration works across your entire Easy Digital Downloads store without additional setup for each product.
Can I test digital purchases before opening my store?
Definitely. Testing a few purchases before launch lets you confirm that payments, download delivery, and customer emails are all working correctly.
Does PayLexer process my payments?
No. PayLexer connects Easy Digital Downloads with Checkout.com, while Checkout.com securely processes every payment.
If I update my Checkout.com API credentials later, will I need to reconnect my store?
Not at all. Simply update the credentials in PayLexer and save your changes. Your existing store connection continues using the updated details.
Where can I get help if I run into problems?
If you need assistance during setup or after launch, the PayLexer support team is ready to help. You’ll also have access to documentation covering the complete integration.
What websites does PayLexer support?
PayLexer currently supports selected WordPress platforms, including WooCommerce, WP Travel Engine, Easy Digital Downloads, and FluentCart. Support for additional website platforms is planned in future updates.
How can I connect Checkout.com to my WordPress website?
If you’re using one of PayLexer’s supported WordPress platforms, the setup takes just a few minutes. Add your Checkout.com API credentials in PayLexer, connect your website, and enable Checkout.com. Most of the work is simply copying and pasting the required values.
Can I use the same Checkout.com account for more than one website?
Yes. A single Checkout.com account can be connected to multiple supported websites through PayLexer. You can manage them from the same PayLexer dashboard instead of setting up separate integrations for each one.
Does PayLexer process my Checkout.com payments?
No. Checkout.com processes every payment directly. PayLexer only creates and manages the connection between your website and Checkout.com. Your funds never pass through PayLexer.
Why use PayLexer instead of building my own Checkout.com integration?
Building a Checkout.com integration takes development time, testing, and ongoing maintenance. PayLexer lets you connect Checkout.com in 5 minutes and manage your payment gateway without maintaining custom code.
Is PayLexer free to use?
Yes. You can get started with PayLexer’s free plan, which supports up to five websites with no credit card required.
