Setting up Airwallex in PremiumPress

Activate the free plugin, then open your theme’s payment settings and add your Airwallex credentials:

• Client ID — Airwallex → Account → API keys. Sent as x-client-id when authenticating.
• API key — Sent as x-api-key to obtain a short-lived bearer token (cached).
• Webhook secret — Recommended — enables reliable confirmation. Add a webhook in Airwallex → Developer → Webhooks

One-time payments. Recurring is possible via a saved customer + consent — see the Airwallex docs to extend this. Amounts are in major currency units. The plugin requires PremiumPress 12.
