Overview
Sites that run a points system on myCred often need a way for visitors to buy points directly. buyCRED PayFast adds PayFast as a payment gateway for that purpose. A visitor picks a point package, pays through PayFast, and the plugin handles the rest. Payments are encrypted, and the checkout is meant to be short and clear for the customer.
The plugin works inside the myCred ecosystem, so points are credited and managed automatically after a successful transaction. Admins can configure pricing, point packages and promotional offers, and review reports in the WordPress dashboard. It suits sites that reward loyal visitors, run a points-based economy or sell points alongside an online store. Developers can extend it with hooks and filters.
