Unofficial IRIS checkout payment gateway for WooCommerce. Accept payments via IRIS and manage order statuses efficiently.
Security History
What It Does
Checkout Gateway for IRIS adds a payment method to WooCommerce that lets customers complete purchases using IRIS, a Greek bank transfer system, by generating a payment request or QR code at checkout. Orders are tracked and updated through their status as the gateway processes the transaction. It is an unofficial, community-built integration rather than a first-party solution from a bank or payment processor.
Who It's For
This plugin is a good fit for small and medium Greek businesses running WooCommerce stores that already use or want to offer IRIS bank transfers as a payment option. It works well for service providers, restaurants, tourism operators, and B2B suppliers billing Greek customers who prefer direct bank-to-bank transfers over card payments. Stores with a predominantly Greek customer base will benefit the most from the IRIS integration.
Who Should Skip It
If your store sells primarily to customers outside Greece, or if you need a payment gateway with card processing, refunds, subscriptions, or strong dispute handling, you should look elsewhere. Merchants who require a vendor-backed solution with formal SLAs and banking partnerships will find this unofficial plugin too narrow and unproven for high-volume operations.
The Bottom Line
Checkout Gateway for IRIS is a specialized, recently maintained plugin that solves one specific problem: accepting IRIS bank transfers in a WooCommerce checkout. The overall quality score of 66.93/100 reflects solid compatibility and maintenance offset by a small install base and an unresolved support thread. It is worth considering only if IRIS is genuinely central to your Greek customer base; everyone else will be better served by a mainstream gateway.
Related Plugins
Pick this for German or EU-focused stores needing invoicing compliance, legal text, and broad European payment options rather than a single Greek-specific rail.
Choose this if your main gap is generating compliant invoices and packing slips, which often pair with B2B or cross-border orders independent of payment method.
Choose this when building buyer trust and product reviews is the priority, since the IRIS plugin does nothing for social proof or conversion optimization.
Pick Stripe if you need card payments, Apple Pay, SEPA, subscriptions, and a fully supported, widely trusted gateway for international customers.
Pick Mercado Pago if you sell into Latin America and need local payment methods, since it covers a completely different regional audience than IRIS.
