Connecting PayFast, Bob Go, and Esquire XML Feeds in WooCommerce

Technical guide to wiring PayFast payments, Bob Go couriers, and Esquire supplier XML into WooCommerce for SA e-commerce.

Running hardware e-commerce in South Africa means integrating local payments, couriers, and distributor stock feeds. This is the stack LucrativeIT uses on lucrativeit.co.za.

PayFast

Install the official PayFast gateway, enable ITN webhooks on HTTPS, and test sandbox before go-live. Map order statuses so paid orders trigger fulfilment workflows.

Bob Go

Connect Bob Go for live shipping rates and waybill generation. Validate suburb/postal mappings β€” incorrect codes are the top cause of failed deliveries.

Esquire XML feed

Our lucrativeit-supplier-sync plugin ingests Esquire DataFeed XML into a staging table, applies margin rules, and publishes selected SKUs to WooCommerce. Schedule cron syncs and monitor cost-floor alerts before publishing.
