FreedomPay HPP Plugin for BigCommerce

The FreedomPay HPP Plugin for BigCommerce enables merchants to redirect customers to FreedomPay’s secure Hosted Payment Page to complete checkout.

With this method, no payment data is collected on the merchant’s site—customers are sent off-site to a PCI-certified environment, minimizing compliance burden and security risk.

FreedomPay’s Hosted Payment Page (HPP) is a secure, redirect-based checkout solution that helps merchants offload the responsibility of collecting and securing sensitive payment information. Instead of capturing payment data on the merchant’s website, customers are redirected to a FreedomPay-hosted form to complete their transaction.

With HPP:

• Customers are redirected to FreedomPay’s secure Hosted Payment Page to complete checkout

• No payment data is entered or stored on the merchant’s site, minimizing PCI scope (SAQ A eligible)

• Multiple payment methods are supported: cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, and more

• Optional features like tokenization, 3DS, and Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC) are available

• Merchants can trigger Capture, Refund, and Void actions directly from the BigCommerce admin panel

HPP uses FreedomPay’s Freeway APIs for all post-transaction operations and system integration.

When installed and configured, the add-on:

• Adds FreedomPay payment methods (Card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, etc.) to the BigCommerce checkout

• Redirects customers to FreedomPay’s secure Hosted Payment Page to complete payment

• Routes payment data through FreedomPay, not BigCommerce, significantly reducing PCI scope

It also allows merchants to:

• Choose which payment methods to offer

  • Enable optional features like tokenization, 3D Secure (3DS), and Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC)

  • Trigger Capture, Refund, or Void operations directly from the BigCommerce admin panel

• FreedomPay’s Freeway APIs power all administrative actions like refunds, captures, and voids.

HPP enhances your BigCommerce checkout with added security, flexibility and control, while reducing compliance effort.

Whether you're focused on reducing compliance risk or enabling more payment options, these use cases highlight where HPP delivers value in your BigCommerce store:
