Accept crypto payments in Gravity Forms with MakePay
The MakePay Gravity Forms gateway is built for WordPress forms that collect payments for registrations, bookings, donations, quotes, and services.
Gravity Forms is often used for workflows where a full store is not needed. A customer fills in a form, chooses options, and pays a calculated amount. MakePay adds a hosted crypto checkout step after submission while keeping the form entry inside WordPress.
The plugin can be enabled only for selected forms. That keeps ordinary contact forms untouched while paid forms receive MakePay checkout links and payment status updates.
How MakePay fits into a Gravity Forms submission
After a selected form is submitted, the plugin reads the calculated total, creates a MakePay payment link, stores the link on the entry, and redirects the visitor to checkout.
When MakePay reports a payment update, the plugin verifies the webhook signature and updates the entry payment status. Your existing Gravity Forms notifications, confirmations, and exports remain in WordPress.
Good use cases for form payments
Gravity Forms works well for event registrations, booking deposits, service quotes, donations, applications, and custom order forms where WooCommerce would be unnecessary overhead.
For each form, run a low-value test submission and confirm that the entry total, customer email, confirmation page, and payment status match your internal workflow.
Operations and recovery
Use Connect MakePay for normal setup. Manual API-key fields are available when a site needs a fallback connection method.
If a site domain changes, reconnect MakePay and confirm that the webhook URL is reachable from the public internet.
FAQ
Does the plugin change every Gravity Forms form?
No. MakePay runs only on the forms selected on the Forms > MakePay settings page.
Do I need WooCommerce for Gravity Forms payments?
No. The Gravity Forms plugin is for standalone paid forms. WooCommerce stores should use the WooCommerce gateway instead.
