Plaxswap Crypto Payment Gateway – Accept Bitcoin, USDT & More 1.0.6

This update fixes problems found in a full review of the add-on. Upgrade from Admin CP > Add-ons > Install/upgrade from archive.

• Pay opens the full checkout. Test payments can now be acted out (Paid, Partly paid, Expired and more) right from the payment page.
• Test and live notifications. A correctly signed notification for the other mode is accepted and ignored instead of being refused. Before you press Send test in your Plaxswap dashboard, switch the dashboard to the same mode as your payment profile.
• Fewer background checks. Finished payments (paid, expired, cancelled or failed) stop being checked, and open ones are checked less often as they get older.
• Switched-off keys. If Plaxswap refuses your API key, the payment profile pauses and the Admin CP shows a notice. Saving the profile again resumes it.
• Clear messages for members, for example when an upgrade costs less than the minimum (about $1) or the forum does not use https.
• Payments under review are activated automatically once the review clears.
• Short payments within your allowance (0.5% by default, up to 10%) count as paid; larger partial payments wait. Recurring upgrades are refused with a clear message (one-time payments only).
• PHP 8.4 and 8.5 ready.

The setup guide on the payment profile screen and in INSTALLATION.txt now uses the merchant dashboard's own button names, so each step matches what you see:

• Developers → API keys: choose New key, select Test and choose Create test key. Copy the key when it appears. It is shown only once.
• Developers → Webhooks: choose Add URL, paste the callback URL from your payment profile and choose Save.
• Choose Make a new secret for the signing secret, then Send test, and check that Delivery history shows Delivered.

No code changed. If your forum already takes payments, there is nothing else to do. To upgrade, use Install/upgrade from archive in the Admin CP and upgrade the existing add-on. Don't uninstall it first.

Version 1.0.4 brings the add-on in line with the new Plaxswap merchant dashboard. Only texts change: checkout, payment verification and activation work as before. Upgrade in place.

• Setup steps now point to Developers → API keys and Developers → Webhooks, where they sit in the new dashboard. The old direct links still open the right page.
• Your merchant wallet now holds 133 coins on 17 networks. Each coin has its own page with a Receive, Send and Swap button for every network.
• Activity lists every payment, send and swap in one place.
• Press Ctrl+K (Cmd+K on a Mac) in the dashboard to search payments, orders, coins and saved addresses.

Install: Admin CP → Add-ons → Install/upgrade from archive, then upload the 1.0.4 zip.

1.0.3 brings the Plaxswap merchant wallet to your forum payments. Every member payment still lands in your wallet in the coin they paid, and now you can do much more with it:

• Receive coins to your own deposit address per coin and network, with a QR code. Receiving is free.
• Send to addresses saved in your address book. New addresses can be used 24 hours after saving.
• Swap between coins inside your wallet, with the rate and every fee shown before you approve.
• Simple wallet fees: 0.3% same network · 0.5% same coin, other network · 0.7% different coin, plus the network fee.
• Security: authenticator or passkey on every send, anti-phishing code in every email, signed-in devices list, and sends paused for 24 hours after a security change or a new-device sign-in.

The add-on's code is unchanged apart from its version and texts (install guide and description). Upgrade in place from Admin CP → Add-ons → Install/upgrade from archive; do not uninstall.

Faster checkout. When a member presses Pay, the add-on now opens Plaxswap checkout straight away. There is no extra forum page before it any more. At checkout the member picks the coin they will send, then its network, and gets the exact amount, address and QR code.
The forum payment page is still there: it is where checkout sends the member back, and it shows the payment status until the purchase activates. Payment verification, fees and activation are unchanged.
Upgrade: Admin CP > Add-ons > Install/upgrade from archive, then choose the 1.0.2 zip. Upgrade in place; do not uninstall (uninstalling removes payment history).

Version 1.0.1 introduces a refreshed payment experience and a clearer connection guide for XenForo administrators.

• Redesigned checkout: A responsive purchase summary, clearer payment action, coin icons and readable payment-status steps.
• Guided merchant setup: Three steps explain how to create a test or live API key, connect payment notifications and check your first payment.
• Clearer API and webhook instructions: Separate explanations for the merchant API key and signing secret, with direct links to the relevant merchant dashboard sections.
• Copy your callback URL: The saved payment profile displays its exact notification URL with a copy button and matching setup instructions.
• Updated administration: Refined payment history and detail layouts make purchase activation, merchant credits and network transfers easier to review. Search, status and payment-mode filters remain available.
• Merchant wallet access: A direct dashboard link opens the merchant wallet for balances and withdrawal management.


Upgrade instructions
Install the 1.0.1 archive through Admin CP → Add-ons → Install/upgrade from archive. For a manual update, upload the contents of the archive’s upload folder to your forum root, then run the add-on upgrade in Admin CP.

Upgrade your existing installation in place. Existing payment profiles and saved credentials are retained; an already connected profile needs no new credentials. Do not uninstall the add-on to update, as uninstalling removes its invoice history.

New connections can follow the guide in their payment profile. Start with a test key and a forum administrator test purchase before enabling live customer payments. The archive also includes an installation and troubleshooting guide.
