Quick answer (for buyers)
If your merchant account runs on SecurePay (XML API) and you sell on Easy Digital Downloads, you need an extension that implements your processor product—not a generic gateway label. PatSaTECH maintains SecurePay (XML API) for Easy Digital Downloads with documented settings, sandbox-friendly testing, and ongoing compatibility work. What is SecurePay ? SecurePay is the go-to solution for over 20,000 businesses in Australia when it comes to accepting and managing online payments safely and securely.

Start with how to evaluate payment gateway plugins.
Who this is for
- Merchants whose processor paperwork names SecurePay (XML API), with API credentials matching the integration type on this product page.
- Easy Digital Downloads stores on HTTPS checkout, ready to sandbox-test before live keys.
- Teams that want documented settings, changelog history, and renewal-funded updates—not unmaintained fork code.
Who should skip (disqualifiers)
- You are not on SecurePay (XML API), or your boarding package requires a different integration than this extension documents.
- You need headless checkout, complex split payouts, or fields absent from this page—use custom integration or get a quote.
- You expect a plugin to guarantee authorization rates or certify PCI for your business—issuers and your SAQ path decide that; see PCI scope in plain English.
Dream outcome
SecurePay (XML API)-boarded stores: reliable checkout, refunds, and order/payment records in Easy Digital Downloads admin—without stale fork code or launch-weekend fire drills.
Obstacles → what this plugin addresses
| Obstacle (from support & go-lives) | How this extension helps |
|---|---|
| Digital checkout breaks after EDD or PHP updates | Maintained extension aligned to EDD payment hooks. |
| Processor mismatch on the MID | Confirm SecurePay (XML API) boarding matches this SKU. |
Proof & documentation
Less time and effort for your team
- Standard settings screen for keys, transaction mode, and display options as documented on this product page.
- Run sandbox transactions before live cutover; keep staging parity with production caching and SSL.
- Optional plugin installation support for scoped go-live help.
Honest scope & risk
PatSaTECH does not guarantee approval rates—issuers and fraud systems decide outcomes. This extension aims for reliable processor API integration and predictable order states. Confirm international and MCC-specific behavior with your processor. Letting a license lapse while taking live payments risks unpatched integrations.
Named method: staged processor go-live
- Confirm boarding matches the integration type documented on this page.
- Install on staging; enter sandbox credentials.
- Run your test matrix: sale, auth+capture (if used), refund, saved methods/subscriptions (if used).
- Switch to live keys; monitor first-day orders and gateway logs.
