BlockBee PrestaShop Plugin 2.0.0

Version 2.0.0 is a major update to the BlockBee PrestaShop plugin, bringing a completely rewritten payment flow, PrestaShop 8 and 9 compatibility, and a cleaner, more secure experience for both merchants and customers.

What is new in version 2.0.0

• Full rewrite on top of BlockBee Checkout Payments — customers are now redirected to pay.blockbee.io to complete their payment
• Webhook signature verification for improved security
• PrestaShop 8 and 9 compatibility
• Cronjob no longer needed

Why it matters

This is the most significant update to the plugin to date. The move to BlockBee Checkout Payments simplifies the entire payment flow — customers are redirected to a dedicated, hosted payment page, removing the need for complex storefront integrations. On top of that, dropping the cronjob requirement means less server configuration and fewer moving parts to maintain.

Webhook signature verification adds an important layer of protection, ensuring that only legitimate payment notifications are processed by your store.
