The WooCommerce Skrill payment gateway extension sends payment through Skrill’s secure servers by either redirecting the customer to Skrill’s securely hosted payment page to enter payment information or by iframing this page on your own site. Since the customer’s payment information is handled by Skrill’s servers and not your own, a valid SSL certificate is not required and complex PCI requirements are eliminated. Skrill is designed to let you focus on selling and growing your business, not becoming a PCI expert.

Risk and Fraud Management
Skrill uses various security tests while processing payments, including AVS/CVN checks, black and white lists, and correlation checks. Because their security measures are so effective, Skrill offers full chargeback protection upon request. That’s peace of mind for your WooCommerce store.
