Prestashop Integration Guide

Accept payments for your e-commerce through PrestaShop

Prestashop is a free and open source e-commerce option. It is written in the PHP programming language with support for the MySQL database management system. PrestaShop is currently used by thousands of stores worldwide and is available in 60 different languages.

For these reasons, Kushki sought to integrate its payment methods by creating a plugin that allows card payments with availability in several countries. You will find the installation and administration details below.
