How to include offline payment processing system to a website?

For businesses or organizations looking to offer flexible payment methods, RegistrationMagic’s offline payment processing system is a powerful feature. It allows you to accept payments through non-digital channels—such as direct bank transfers, checks, or cash—without relying on services like PayPal or Stripe. This feature is ideal for those who prefer traditional banking over digital gateways or wish to offer more diverse payment options to their users.​

Offline payment processing system refers to any payment method handled outside of automated online processors. With RegistrationMagic, users can submit a form and then complete their payment manually—typically via bank transfer or in-person transactions.

This setup is particularly useful in scenarios where:

  • Businesses don’t want to use digital gateways like PayPal or Stripe

  • Users prefer traditional payment methods

  • Payment verification needs to be handled manually

Key Benefits of Using Offline Payments

1. More Control Over Transactions
You have complete oversight of the payment process, allowing you to verify funds manually before confirming registrations or access.

2. Custom Instructions
RegistrationMagic allows you to provide detailed payment instructions—such as bank account numbers, reference codes, and payment deadlines—within automated emails or form confirmations.

3. Easy to Set Up
No coding required. You can enable offline payments with just a few clicks inside your WordPress dashboard using the RegistrationMagic Premium plugin.

4. Support for Manual Verification
Since the payment isn’t processed automatically, you can check and confirm each transaction before approving any registration or submission.
