DSK Bank gateway connects HikaShop shops to Bulgarian card payments

A paid HikaShop payment gateway for shops using DSK Bank to process card transactions.

It sends a HikaShop customer to DSK Bank's hosted payment page, then returns them to the shop after payment.

This problem exists because Joomla core does not provide an online shop, card checkout, or bank-specific payment integration. HikaShop supplies the commerce and payment-method framework, but each processor still needs a connector for its API and notification process. A template override can change checkout markup; it cannot replace that transaction layer. According to the listing, this plugin goes beyond a basic redirect by handling bank notifications, checking the merchant key and order amount, and supporting payment holds, later capture, refunds, and cancellation of held funds. It also claims Visa and Mastercard support, 3-D Secure through the bank, a sandbox, and English and Bulgarian payment pages.

The likely audience is a Bulgarian HikaShop shop with a DSK Bank e-commerce merchant account, HTTPS hosting, and a need to let the bank handle card authentication. A site using another acquirer, a non-HikaShop store, or one that accepts only offline payments has no obvious use for it.

This is a paid download; the listing gives no price. The developer is Hikari Software Team, whose directory profile shows 76 other extensions, while this listing has no reviews. Before installing, confirm the bank-account requirements, API credentials, notification setup, refund and capture rules, support terms, and whether the documentation covers your DSK contract. The listing claims Joomla 4, 5, and 6 compatibility, PHP 7.4 minimum, and all HikaShop editions, but those claims have not been independently tested here.
