Everything You Need to Know
Can I add PayHere to an existing travel website without changing my booking setup?
Yes. PayLexer connects PayHere with your existing WP Travel Engine installation, so you don’t need to rebuild your tours or change the way travelers make bookings. PayHere simply becomes part of your existing payment flow.
What happens between a traveler making a payment and the booking being updated?
Once the payment is confirmed by PayHere, PayLexer passes the relevant payment information back to WP Travel Engine so the booking can continue through its normal workflow.
How much technical work is involved in connecting PayHere?
Very little. PayLexer is designed to handle the connection without requiring you to develop an integration yourself. You follow the setup instructions, enter the required credentials, and configure the payment option on your website.
Could I offer PayHere alongside another payment gateway?
Yes. You don’t have to remove your existing payment options just to introduce PayHere. Where multiple gateways are enabled on your site, travelers can have more than one way to complete their booking.
What if I decide to add another payment gateway later?
You can expand your payment setup as your business grows. PayLexer supports multiple payment gateways, so adding another option doesn’t mean rebuilding your WP Travel Engine website or replacing everything you’ve already configured.
Does PayLexer process my payments?
No. PayHere handles the actual payment transaction. PayLexer serves as the connection layer between PayHere and WP Travel Engine, helping the two systems communicate without PayLexer holding your funds.
Where can I get help if something goes wrong?
If you run into trouble during setup or after your booking site is live, the PayLexer support team is available to help you work through the issue and get the integration back on track.
