## Popis

PayStage helps marketplace operators protect buyers and vendors by holding online
payments until the buyer confirms delivery. When an order is paid online, PayStage
marks the order as held, keeps funds in your configured flow until the buyer confirms
receipt, and then completes the order so the vendor is paid.

PayStage works with:
 – Dokan Multivendor (40,000+ active installs) – WCFM Marketplace(
10,000+ active installs) – MultiVendorX / WC Marketplace (5,000+ active installs)–
WooCommerce Product Vendors (official WooCommerce extension)

The plugin is built for stores running Dokan (Lite or Pro), WCFM Marketplace, MultiVendorX,
or WooCommerce Product Vendors on top of WooCommerce. Admins can see PayStage status
on each order, configure how long the buyer has to inspect the purchase, and release
payment manually if needed.

Typical flow: the customer places an order and pays online; PayStage records the
hold; the buyer opens the order in My Account and confirms delivery when satisfied;
the order can then complete and the vendor payment proceeds according to your marketplace
rules. If something goes wrong, the buyer can open a dispute; admins use the PayStage
Disputes screen to choose a resolution (full refund, full release to vendor, or 
split), with email notifications to the parties involved.

### External services

This plugin does not send order or customer data to PayStage servers or other third-
party APIs. Notifications use WordPress `wp_mail()` (delivered according to your
site’s email configuration).

A bundled Stripe PHP SDK exists under `vendor/` for possible future use; PayStage
does not call Stripe or other payment APIs in this version.

### Vendor Terms Template

PayStage requires marketplace operators to disclose payment hold
 terms to their
vendors. Copy and adapt the following template for your vendor terms of service:

**Payment Hold Policy**

When a buyer places an order on our marketplace, your payment
 for that order will
be held for [X] days (the „Inspection Period“) to allow the buyer to confirm delivery.
During this period you will not be able to withdraw these earnings.

Payment will be released to you when:
 – The buyer confirms delivery of the order,
OR – The Inspection Period expires with no buyer action

If the buyer opens a dispute during the Inspection Period, payment
 will remain 
on hold until the dispute is resolved by our marketplace administrators.

This policy exists to protect buyers and maintain trust on our
 marketplace. By 
selling on our marketplace you agree to these payment terms.

## Instalace

 1. Upload the `paystage` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`, or upload the plugin ZIP
    via Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin.
 2. Activate PayStage through the Plugins menu in WordPress.
 3. Ensure WooCommerce and a supported multi-vendor plugin (Dokan, WCFM Marketplace,
    MultiVendorX, or WooCommerce Product Vendors) are installed and active.
 4. Go to WooCommerce > PayStage to set the inspection period and other options.
 5. Place test orders as a buyer and vendor to confirm hold, confirm delivery, and 
    dispute flows on your staging site before going live.

## Nejčastější dotazy

### Does PayStage work without Dokan?

PayStage requires at least one supported marketplace plugin: Dokan Multivendor, 
WCFM Marketplace, MultiVendorX, or WooCommerce Product Vendors.

### Does PayStage work with WCFM Marketplace?

Yes. PayStage supports both Dokan and WCFM Marketplace. Install PayStage alongside
either plugin and it will automatically detect which marketplace platform you are
using and integrate accordingly.

### Does PayStage work with MultiVendorX?

Yes. PayStage detects MultiVendorX automatically and integrates with its vendor 
commission and withdrawal system to hold payments until buyers confirm delivery.

### Does PayStage work with WooCommerce Product Vendors?

Yes. PayStage supports the official WooCommerce Product Vendors extension. It automatically
detects the plugin and integrates with its vendor commission and payout system to
hold payments until buyers confirm delivery.

### Which multi-vendor plugins does PayStage support?

PayStage supports Dokan Multivendor, WCFM Marketplace, MultiVendorX (formerly WC
Marketplace), and WooCommerce Product Vendors. These four plugins cover the majority
of WooCommerce multi-vendor marketplaces. If you use a different platform, use the
paystage_should_hold_order filter to integrate with it.

### Does it work with Cash on Delivery?

No. PayStage buyer protection only applies to online payment methods. COD orders
are excluded automatically.

### What happens if the buyer never confirms delivery?

Payment is automatically released to the vendor after the inspection period (default
7 days, configurable in PayStage settings).

### Can the admin release payment manually?

Yes. Admins can release payment from the order detail page at any time.

### Is this compatible with WooCommerce HPOS?

Yes. PayStage is fully compatible with WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage.
