Recebimento Fácil – Multicaixa payment by reference for WooCommerce

“Pagamento por Referência” at Multicaixa, or home banking services, is one of the most popular ways to pay for services and (online) purchases in Angola.

Allows the generation of a payment Reference the customer can then use to pay for his WooCommerce order in Kwanzas, through an ATM, the Multicaixa Express app, at PSP (Payment Services Providers), or a home banking service.
