## Description

TransX402 Paywall lets site owners sell individual articles with IDRX stablecoin
micropayments. Configure your TransX402 API key, set prices in IDR, and enable paywalls
per post.

This plugin requires a free TransX402 account and API key (sandbox or live). All
plugin code is fully available; payment settlement is provided by the TransX402 
service.

**Features**

 * Server-side settlement — your API key stays on the server
 * Payment history stored in your WordPress database
 * Return visits unlock via a signed HttpOnly access cookie
 * Preview modes: first paragraph, word count, or excerpt
 * Overlay, inline, and blur paywall styles
 * Paywalled content gated on singular views, REST API, RSS, excerpts, and search

**Source**

### External services

This plugin connects to external services to process payments and display admin 
links:

 * **TransX402 API** (`https://api.transx402.com`, or an admin-configured allowlisted
   facilitator URL) — payment facilitation and verification. The site sends the 
   API key (server-side only), payment signatures, and transaction hashes. No visitor
   API keys are exposed in the browser. Terms: [https://transx402.com/terms](https://transx402.com/terms).
   Privacy: [https://transx402.com/privacy](https://transx402.com/privacy)
 * **Block explorers** (`https://basescan.org`, `https://testnet-explorer.onchainfolio.
   com`) — used only in the WordPress admin payments list to link transaction hashes.
   No visitor data is sent to these services.

Service provider: Camp Investment / TransX402 — [https://transx402.com](https://transx402.com)

### Privacy

 * Stores payment history (payer wallet address, transaction hash, post ID, amount)
   in your WordPress database.
 * Sends payment payloads and transaction hashes to the TransX402 facilitator when
   a visitor pays.
 * Sets an HttpOnly, SameSite=Lax signed access cookie (Secure when the site uses
   HTTPS) after a successful payment so return visits can unlock content without
   re-paying.

### Credits

 * [@transx402/client](https://github.com/campinvestment/transx402-client) v0.2.5(
   MIT) — browser payment SDK, bundled at `assets/vendor/transx402.browser.min.js`.

## FAQ

### Do I need a TransX402 account?

Yes. Register at [dashboard.transx402.com](https://dashboard.transx402.com) and 
create a sandbox (`ipk_sandbox_…`) or live (`ipk_live_…`) API key. The plugin will
not settle payments without a configured key.

### Where do I find my merchant wallet?

Copy it from the TransX402 dashboard. It is also auto-detected after your first 
successful payment.

### Does the access cookie require a cookie banner?

The plugin sets an HttpOnly access cookie only after a successful payment so return
visits can unlock content. Site owners in the EU (or similar jurisdictions) should
disclose this cookie in their cookie policy / CMP if required for their region.

### What are the TransX402 terms of use?

See [https://transx402.com/terms](https://transx402.com/terms) and [https://transx402.com/privacy](https://transx402.com/privacy)(
or the terms linked from your TransX402 dashboard).
