WordPress payment and donation plugin with subscriptions, forms and multiple payment gateways

Paymattic turns to security hardening after months of gateway-parity features.

◆Current state
Paymattic is a WordPress payments and donations plugin that has spent the year matching dedicated donation plugins: Gift Aid, fee recovery, a GiveWP migrator, Xendit subscriptions and Stripe card updates. Its last three releases lean on security: 4.6.26 hardened Stripe, Razorpay and Mollie flows and paginated the user dashboard server-side, 4.6.27 fixed Stripe subscription security and added custom webhook headers, and 4.6.28 tightened output escaping.
◆Where it's heading
Three security-heavy releases in three weeks suggest an audit pass on the payment flows. Feature work has slowed to small developer options like webhook headers.
◆Prediction
Expect gateway-parity features to resume once the hardening pass ends; which gateway is next is unclear from the entries.
