You might want to disable PayPal for non-local customers or enable a specific gateway for only one country… Either way, this is a very common requirement for all of those who trade internationally.
Here’s a simple snippet you can further customize to achieve your objective. Simply pick the payment gateway “slug” you want to disable/enable (“paypal”, “authorize”, “stripe”, etc.) and the country code (US, ES, IE, etc.) and then apply your conditional rules in the plugin below.

You don’t feel confident with coding? You need more control over your payment/country exclusions? You don’t want to purchase yet another bloated, expensive plugin? Great!
Business Bloomer WooCommerce Toggle Payments By Country is a mini WooCommerce plugin, without the usual hassles. One feature. Lifetime license. No annoying subscriptions. 1 plugin file. A few lines of code. No banners. No up-sells. No WP notifications. Use it on as many websites as you like. Lifetime support. 1-page documentation. A single and easy admin dashboard.

Quick demo:
As you can see the settings are pretty straight forward. Select a payment method you wish to hide/show from the left, and the country that should trigger that from the right. Add more rules if needed. Simple!
Advanced “Payment Gateways by Country” WooCommerce Plugin
If you don’t feel 100% confident with coding, I decided to look for a reliable plugin that achieves the same result of this snippet (and more).
In this case, I found the WooCommerce Conditional Payment Gateways plugin to be the most complete when you need to enable/disable payment gateways based on certain criteria. You can create unlimited “rules” and use, for example, cart totals, billing country, shipping country, user role and much more to define which payment gateway shows and which not.
But in case you don’t want to use plugins and wish to code (or wish to try that), then keep reading 🙂
How to add more than one country?
Hello Anish, thanks so much for your comment! Yes, this is definitely possible, but I’m afraid it’s custom work. If you’d like to get a quote, feel free to contact me here. Thanks a lot for your understanding!
This is no longer compatible with WooCommerce 6.2.1. If you have the snippet in your functions.php and you try to update from 6.2.0 to 6.2.1 it will try, but won’t work – the update will still be available and your WooCommerce version will remain at 6.2.0. Comment out this snippet and the WooCommerce update suceeds. Any idea what the magic is to make it work correctly with 6.2.1? I think “WC()->customer->get_billing_country()” is causing the issues.
That’s weird, unless 6.2.1 has a bug? Let me know
Yes, I have the same issue.
This is normal if no customer is loaded. In this case, WC() -> customer is null, instead of the WC_Customer object.
I recommend adding the following line;
if(!is_object(WC()->customer) OR !method_exists(WC()->customer,'get_billing_country') ){ return $available_gateways; }The complete code:
add_filter('woocommerce_available_payment_gateways', 'bbloomer_payment_gateway_disable_country'); function bbloomer_payment_gateway_disable_country($available_gateways) { if (is_admin()) return $available_gateways; if(!is_object(WC()->customer) OR !method_exists(WC()->customer,'get_billing_country') ){ return $available_gateways; } //Deactivate Invoice if country is not Switzerland if (isset($available_gateways['invoice']) && WC()->customer->get_billing_country() <> 'CH') { unset($available_gateways['invoice']); } return $available_gateways; }Thanks a million!
Impecable!!
Thank you!
I was looking for a way to find the gateways IDs and I found this perfect snippet!
Great!
Hi Rodolfo,
following Your snippet I added the following code:
add_filter( 'woocommerce_available_payment_gateways', 'bbloomer_payment_gateway_disable_country' ); function bbloomer_payment_gateway_disable_country( $available_gateways ) { if ( is_admin() ) return $available_gateways; if ( isset( $available_gateways['authorize'] ) && WC()->customer->get_billing_country() == 'IT' ) { unset( $available_gateways['authorize'] ); } else { if ( isset( $available_gateways['paypal'] ) && WC()->customer->get_billing_country() <> 'IT' ) { unset( $available_gateways['cod'] ); } } return $available_gateways; }but in error log I find the following error:
08-Nov-2020 20:05:35 UTC] PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function get_billing_country() on null
Any idea?
Thank You very much for Your attention
Ale
Uhm, was it a guest order, so there was no “customer”?
I’m having the same error, is there a way to check first if we have a
and if we do, call
? And get rid of the error?
Thank you Rodolfo!
Sure!
if ( WC()->customer ) { // code here }Hi Rodolfo,
unfortunatly after the latest update of woocommerce this snippet doesn’t work anymore. In addition (as You wrote before) it doesn’t manage guest checkout.
I’m so sorry…
Thx for Your support
Ale
Sure?
To troubleshoot, disable all plugins but WooCommerce and also switch temporarily to “Twentytwenty” theme (load the snippet there in functions.php) as explained here: https://www.businessbloomer.com/lesson/trwm4l01/
Once you do that, does it work? If yes, you have a problem with your current theme or one of the plugins.
Hope this helps!
Try this code instead (it excludes payment methods based on Geoip user location):
add_filter( 'woocommerce_available_payment_gateways', 'geo_country_based_available_payment_gateways', 90, 1 ); function geo_country_based_available_payment_gateways( $available_gateways ) { // Not in backend (admin) if( is_admin() ) return $available_gateways; // ==> HERE define your country codes $allowed_country_codes = array('PL'); // Get an instance of the WC_Geolocation object class $geolocation_instance = new WC_Geolocation(); // Get user IP $user_ip_address = $geolocation_instance->get_ip_address(); // Get geolocated user IP country code. $user_geolocation = $geolocation_instance->geolocate_ip( $user_ip_address ); // Disable payment gateways for all countries except the allowed defined coutries if ( in_array( $user_geolocation['country'], $allowed_country_codes ) ) { unset( $available_gateways['paypal'] ); } return $available_gateways; }Hi! I am using the following:
add_filter( 'woocommerce_available_payment_gateways', 'bbloomer_payment_gateway_disable_country' ); function bbloomer_payment_gateway_disable_country( $available_gateways ) { if ( is_admin() ) return $available_gateways; if ( isset( $available_gateways['wpg_paypal_express'] ) && WC()->customer->get_billing_country() == 'AR' ) { unset( $available_gateways['wpg_paypal_express'] ); } if ( isset( $available_gateways['woo-mercado-pago-basic'] ) && WC()->customer->get_billing_country() != 'AR' ) { unset( $available_gateways['woo-mercado-pago-basic'] ); } if ( isset( $available_gateways['woo-mercado-pago-custom'] ) && WC()->customer->get_billing_country() != 'AR' ) { unset( $available_gateways['woo-mercado-pago-custom'] ); } if ( isset( $available_gateways['woo-mercado-pago-ticket'] ) && WC()->customer->get_billing_country() != 'AR' ) { unset( $available_gateways['woo-mercado-pago-ticket'] ); } return $available_gateways; }But im getting an error, wich is caused by this particular code. Its on the WordPress Rest API. Any way to solve this?
Which error did you get?
Hi, same error here.
(500) Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function get_billing_country() on null in …
I’ve used get_shipping_country instead because we need to avoid people to ship in certain countries. (using billing, ad user can place an order billing in his country and ship in another country)

Thank you for this great Snippet!!!
You’re welcome!
Hi Rodolfo, why you put for the same method id ‘isset’ and ‘unset’?
if ( isset( $available_gateways[‘authorize’] ) && WC()->customer->get_billing_country() ‘US’ ) {
unset( $available_gateways[‘authorize’] );
So I first check if it exists
i am using 4 payment gateway so how to modify this code
i need this
1.paypal & bitpay – worldwide
2.stripe – us,uk,canada,

4,payumoney – India Only
5.Bank Transfer – India,Saudi arabia
Please Help Me

Hello,
I want to disable payment method COD oitside india. Is the below code is correct?
function payment_gateway_disable_country( $available_gateways ) { global $woocommerce; if ( isset( $available_gateways['cod'] ) && $woocommerce->customer->get_country() != 'IN' ) { unset( $available_gateways['cod'] ); } return $available_gateways; } add_filter( 'woocommerce_available_payment_gateways', 'payment_gateway_disable_country' );Please help
Looks good to me, yes 🙂
Hi there! Have been using this code successfully, but now i’m getting this php error:
“get_billing_country was called incorrectly. Customer properties should not be accessed directly. “.
I’m using your latest update. What am I missing?
Hi Dani, weird. If you disable the snippet do you still get the error or not?
When it is disabled we don’t get this error
Hi Dani, I can’t replicate the error. I just tested this again with Storefront theme and it works perfectly. Maybe your theme (or another plugin) is messing/conflicting with my snippet?
To troubleshoot, disable all plugins but WooCommerce and also switch temporarily to “Twentyseventeen” theme (load the snippet there in functions.php) – does it work? If yes, you have a problem with your current theme or one of the plugins.
Hope this helps!
R
Fantastic ! Thank you so much.
You’re welcome!
Woocommerce version 3.5.6 no longer displays payment method ID’s in Woocommerce/Settings/Payments. Where can I find them.
Blog post updated.
thank you. works still great for me in woocommerce 3.5.3
Great!
Hello
How can i restict for currency or many currences? For examples EUR and GBP ?
Hey Michael, thanks for your comment! That will depend on the currency switcher plugin you use 🙂
Woocommerce->Settings->Checkout is not there anymore? Anywhere else where I can find the gateway ids?
Robin, thanks for your comment! You’re right 🙂
It’s now WooCommerce->Settings->Payments
Hello,
Is it possible to restrict per zone?
I have 10 zones in my country im sending too.
Some of them i want to restrict payment methods.
Is that possible?
Hello Pepijn, thanks so much for your comment! Yes, this is possible – but unfortunately this is custom work and I cannot provide a complementary solution here via the blog comments. If you’d like to get a quote, feel free to contact me here. Thanks a lot for your understanding! ~R
Doesn’t seem compatible with the last WooCommerce version unfortunately. First statement seems to disable the payment method for all countries, second statement doesn’t seem to take effect at all.
Hey Luke, works for me 🙂 Try switching to a default theme and disabling all plugins but Woo, then test again. Let me know
Its working!! Thank you very much Rodolfo!
You’re welcome 🙂
Hi 🙂 Great snippet, I like it and it is working smoothly.
I have multiple countries to be avoided of a specific payment methods. I tried to use || operator on the list of countries, but it broke up. Any ideas how to implement it?
Thanks there !

Hi there, thanks 🙂
I finally realized how to pull it through:
add_filter( 'woocommerce_available_payment_gateways', 'bbloomer_payment_gateway_disable_country' ); function bbloomer_payment_gateway_disable_country( $available_gateways ) { global $woocommerce; if ( is_admin() ) return; if ( isset( $available_gateways['officeguy'] ) && ($woocommerce->customer->get_billing_country() == 'GR' || $woocommerce->customer->get_billing_country() == 'GR' || $woocommerce->customer->get_billing_country() == 'GR' || $woocommerce->customer->get_billing_country() == 'GR' || $woocommerce->customer->get_billing_country() == 'GR' || $woocommerce->customer->get_billing_country() == 'GR' || $woocommerce->customer->get_billing_country() == 'GR' || $woocommerce->customer->get_billing_country() == 'GR' || $woocommerce->customer->get_billing_country() == 'GR')) { unset( $available_gateways['officeguy'] ); } return $available_gateways; }** Change ‘GR’ to the countries you wish to avoid
Nice 🙂
Hi There,
This one is working from me for long time. i wanted one PG for only One specific Country. Now , I would like to add one more PG in same list for same country only . What do i need to add in snippet ?
Thanks
Hi Kumar, thanks so much for your comment! Yes, this is possible – but unfortunately this is custom work and I cannot provide a complementary solution here via the blog comments. Thanks a lot for your understanding! ~R
Looking good! Thanks a lot for the snippet and guide.
🙂
I used the snippet with Woo 3.3.1 is still working but in somehow it doesn’t permit the WP menu section to display
You’re right Marwa 🙂 Snippet has now been revised.
I had the same problem, seems that
if ( is_admin() ) return;
does the trick.
But I still find this error in my phpo error log:
PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function get_billing_country() on null in /…../wordpress/wp-content/themes/vantage-child/functions.php:
Hey Louis, can you try the latest version please?
Using the latest code and got “Instant ‘woocommerce_available_payment_gateways’ – assumed ‘‘woocommerce_available_payment_gateways’’ on line 20 Notice: Use of undefined constant ‘payment_gateway_disable_country’ – assumed ‘‘payment_gateway_disable_country’’ on line 20
on the line 20 is add_filter(‘woocommerce_available_payment_gateways’, ‘payment_gateway_disable_country’,10,1 ); or add_filter(‘woocommerce_available_payment_gateways’, ‘payment_gateway_disable_country’ );. We’ve tested both situation. What do we miss?
Marketa , thanks for your comment! Maybe your theme (or another plugin) is messing/conflicting with my snippet?
To troubleshoot, take a look at this tutorial to see how to troubleshoot: https://businessbloomer.com/woocommerce-troubleshooting-mistakes-to-avoid/
Finally, can you try switching temporarily to “Twentyseventeen” or “Storefront” theme and let me know if it works?
Hope this helps!

Hi, we are using this great plugin and it worked really good until we moved our site on a new hosting and upgraded wordpress, woocommerce and php to the last version…… i mean, the snippet is still working but in somehow it doesn’t permit the WP menu section to display… i mean, if i quit your snippet from the function.php the WP menu displays and works without problems… if i put the snippet… well….it doesn’t.
Ciao Angelo, thanks so much for your comment! I just retested this on the latest version of WooCommerce and you’re right, it gave error. I’ve now posted the correct snippet, valid for Woo 3.0 and above 🙂
Grazie mille Rodolfo!! 🙂 … i check the page and i think you’are having problem with the [/php] shortcode: is not detecting the code as “code” … check it out.
PS: the snippet now works great!!
Thanks a million!
Ciao Rodolfo,
is possible to disable ALL payment methods (and so avoid order) for a specific shipping zone, or for the “rest of the world” zone?
I want so sell only in some specific CAP in italy, and not in the ones outside that area (is a local service).
Is that possible?
Ciao Omar, thanks so much for your comment! Yes, this is possible – but unfortunately this is custom work and I cannot provide a complementary solution here via the blog comments. Thanks a lot for your understanding! ~R
Hi Rodolfo,
I want to hide a payment gateway when a company name is entered. Unfortunately after entering a company name the payment options are not reloaded and therefore [paymentmethodXY] is still available.
Do you know how i can trigger a reload of the payment methods so [paymentmethodXY] is gone?
Thanks a lot.
Best Regards,
Toralf
Hey Toralf, thanks so much for your comment! Yes, this is possible – but unfortunately this is custom work and I cannot provide a complementary solution here via the blog comments. Thanks a lot for your understanding! ~R
Hi Great Rodolfo. Do you think there is way to hide a payment gateway based on city?
Thanks in advanced
David, thanks so much for your comment! Yes, this is definitely possible – but unfortunately this is custom work and I cannot provide a complementary solution here via the blog comments. Thanks a lot for your understanding! ~R
Hi Rodolfo,
the code works fine on the frontend page. But I get an error message “PHP Fatal error: Call to a member function get_country() on null” and I don’t see my subscriptions anymore on the admin page.
Any suggestions are very appreciated.
My code:
function bbloomer_payment_gateway_disable_country( $available_gateways ) {
global $woocommerce;
// 1. Get current country
$ccountry = $woocommerce->customer->get_country();
// 2. Check if current country is in your array of countries
$enabledcountries = array("DE");
if (in_array($ccountry, $enabledcountries)) {
$itsenabled = true;
} else {
$itsenabled = false;
}
// 3. Original function
if ( isset( $available_gateways['bacs'] ) && !$itsenabled) {
unset( $available_gateways['bacs'] );
}
return $available_gateways;
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_available_payment_gateways', 'bbloomer_payment_gateway_disable_country' );
Eric, thanks so much for your comment! Unfortunately this is custom troubleshooting work and I cannot help here via the blog comments. Thanks a lot for your understanding! ~R
Hi Rodolfo,
I understand it. Meanwhile I found on github an approach, that inserts an is_admin-check before restricting the payment gateways. With that code I could see the subscriptions again.
I just want to let you know, that I nevertheless disabled the function, because it somehow interferes with WooCommerce Subscription. Renewal payment orders aren’t handled properly. Orders are created but not further processed.
Thank you though
Eric
Ok Eric, no problem 🙂
Hello, i got this code working, thank you very much.
But i got 1 question and 1 sort of beauty mistake.
The mistake, when my customers goes to checkout, every payment gateway is there, when they switch countries it changes.
Exemple (standard country is The Netherlands), when they go to checkout 4 payment options are available, but when i switch to Germany and then back, the 2 (correct) payment options are left. You know how this is possible.
The other is a question, i got multiple payment methods. But 1 i need to have more countries, is that possible with this line and how do i have to adjust this line?
} if ( isset( $available_gateways['paypal'] ) && $woocommerce->customer->get_country() <> 'MT' ) { unset( $available_gateways['paypal'] );Sorry, i believe the mistake where all payment methods were available was my bad (cookies and history) haha.
But the second one is very much needed. I am not really a php writer, haha. Thanks in advance.
Hey Maikel, thanks for your comment! Just add more of these:
Hi,
I’m using this code, it works flawlessly but Stripe is throwing some cosmetic errors, which do not resolve until a refresh at checkout, I’m attaching screen shots below.
If my user is changing from India to any other country, the code defaults to displaying Stripe and PayPal as the payment option, but in this case, Stripe will not load properly. Highlighting them in the images attached below.
add_filter('woocommerce_available_payment_gateways', 'payment_gateway_disable_country'); function payment_gateway_disable_country($available_gateways) { global $woocommerce; if (isset($available_gateways['payu_in']) && $woocommerce->customer->get_shipping_country() <> 'IN') { unset($available_gateways['payu_in']); } else if (isset($available_gateways['paypal']) && $woocommerce->customer->get_shipping_country() == 'IN') { unset($available_gateways['paypal']); } if (isset($available_gateways['stripe']) && $woocommerce->customer->get_shipping_country() == 'IN') { unset($available_gateways['stripe']); } if (isset($available_gateways['cod']) && $woocommerce->customer->get_shipping_country() <> 'IN') { unset($available_gateways['cod']); } return $available_gateways; }When shipping country is changed from India to any other country. This is how stripe loads and it doesn’t get fixed unless the page is refreshed. (Doesn’t auto detect Card Type or input dates properly)
https://imgur.com/a/fk13y
Ideal loading of Stripe (notice auto detection of card type and proper input of dates)
https://imgur.com/a/Gepgz
Would appreciate if you could help fix this.
Warm Regards.
Pramathesh, thanks so much for your comment! Yes, this is possible – but unfortunately this is custom work and I cannot provide a complementary solution here on the blog. Thanks a lot for your understanding! ~R
thank you for the awesome work … once again you saved me from a lot of trouble
Cheers Manos! 🙂
Hi,
Excellent snippet!
I’m looking for, to improve your snippet code
I’d wish to disable all payments for some specifics countries (France & Belgium, by example) and add a common text in replacement of inital Purchase details OR replace “PURCHASE” text button by another text like “CONTACT RESSELLER” with a custom link.
Here, what I did for the moment
function payment_gateway_disable_country( $available_gateways ) { global $woocommerce; if ( isset( $available_gateways['authorize'] ) && $woocommerce->customer->get_country() <> 'FR' && 'BE' ) { unset( $available_gateways['authorize'] ); } else if ( isset( $available_gateways['paypal'] ) && $woocommerce->customer->get_country() == 'FR' && 'BE' ) { unset( $available_gateways['paypal'] ); unset( $available_gateways['bacs'] ); unset( $available_gateways['cod'] ); echo "<table class="shop_table woocommerce-checkout-review-order-table"></table>"; echo "<input class="button alt" name="woocommerce_checkout_place_order" id="place_order" value="Payer avec PayPal" data-value="Commander" type="submit"><input id="_wpnonce" name="_wpnonce" value="a55446108f" type="hidden">"<input name="_wp_http_referer" value="https://www.anotherwebsite.com" type="hidden">"; } return $available_gateways; } add_filter( 'woocommerce_available_payment_gateways', 'payment_gateway_disable_country' );Thanks alot for your helping!
Cheers,
Nico.
Hey Nico, thanks so much for your comment! Yes, this is possible – but unfortunately this is custom work and I cannot provide a complementary solution here on the blog. Hopefully I will have time to create a snippet soon 🙂 Thanks a lot for your understanding! ~R
I think that you’ll have to break this into two steps because the ‘woocommerce_available_payment_gateways’ occurs before the template file is processed i.e. you cannot display something at this point.
To disable all gateways you can simply return an empty array from the function.
Hello Rodolfo,
By the way We want Stripe Payment Gateway only available in Australia and not available outside Australia here is my code
function payment_gateway_disable_country( $available_gateways ) { global $woocommerce; if ( isset( $available_gateways['stripe'] ) && $woocommerce->customer->get_country() 'AU' ) { unset( $available_gateways['stripe'] ); } return $available_gateways; } add_filter( 'woocommerce_available_payment_gateways', 'payment_gateway_disable_country' );Regards,
Hannah
Hey Hannah thanks for your comment! Are you saying your code doesn’t work? Sorry, it’s not clear what your question is 🙂
Hi Rodolfo,
can you please tell how and where to implement this function? I have now in wp/wp-includes/functions.php but I doesn’t work. In my opinion this function must be called from somewhere but where?
Thanks for reply, Ivan
Hey Ivan, thanks for your comment! No, you should never edit WordPress core files 🙂 You can place this in your child theme’s functions.php file – if you need more guidance, please take a look at this video tutorial: https://businessbloomer.com/woocommerce-customization-hangout/. Thank you!
Hi!
Help me! How to hide a specific payment method in the checkout page?
Erik, you should be able to do that from the WooCommerce settings 🙂 Thanks for your comment and let me know if this helps!
I just need to hide on the checkout page. Leave in the payment profile 🙂
Excuse me for my bad English ( I am from Italy :))
Hey Erik, I’m not sure what you mean by “payment profile”. Maybe a screenshot might help? Let me know
Hi, thanks for your codes, works fine but there is a small issue here. When i set the city name: New York, then check out with the same names but with different formats like new york, NEW YORK, NeWyoRk,…. it doesn’t work, the customer has to type the exact name: New York in order to work. Help please!
Hello there and thanks for your comment! This snippet limits shipping by country, so it wouldn’t work with cities. Are you using another snippet?
Hi.
I need a coding if you can help me in this case.I am new for all.
I want to enable cash on delivery (COD) option only for one state and two other cities. So in this case what would be coding.
Please reply soon. Thanks in advance.
Hey Mohammad, thanks so much for your comment! I’m afraid I cannot provide a free solution right now, but I’ll make sure to add this to my to-write list of WooCommerce resources. Thanks for your understanding 🙂
Hello Rodolfo Melogli,
Thanks for providing great solution worked for me too.
But facing issue: the code does not work if shipping and billing countries are different.
thanks,
Vicky
Hello Rodolfo Melogli,
I mean to say it should work for billing address only but if shipping address selected than it should work for shipping address only and not for billing
thanks,
Vicky
Hey Vicky thanks for your message! I think this is as simple as using “get_shipping_country()” instead of “get_country()”. Try that and let me know 🙂
Hello,
Thanks for positive and quick reply.
As per your reply I guess than it will only work with Shipping Address but it should not be the case instead
By default it should check with billing address but if different shipping address check box is checked than it should verify or check with shipping address only.
The thing you asked to change will only work when shipping address checked.
Hope you are getting what I am trying to say.
Thanks
Vicky
No problem Vicky 🙂 Have you tested the new snippet already? I believe “get_shipping_country()” is the same as Billing Country in case shipping is not selected – give it a go!
Hi,
followed this instructions I managed to enable Bank wire payment for one country only.
I would need to make it for two, but I’m getting an error.
I would like to add AT and DE.
What I have to change in third row, where do I have ” ‘AT’ ” ?
function payment_gateway_disable_country( $available_gateways ) { global $woocommerce; if ( isset( $available_gateways['bacs'] ) && $woocommerce->customer->get_country() 'AT' ) { unset( $available_gateways['bacs'] ); } return $available_gateways; } add_filter( 'woocommerce_available_payment_gateways', 'payment_gateway_disable_country' );Thanks for your help !
Hey Tomko, thanks for your question! You can do this:
..... if ( isset( $available_gateways['bacs'] ) && ( $woocommerce->customer->get_country() == 'AT' || $woocommerce->customer->get_country() == 'DE' ) ) { .....Hello, i want to disable the payment method “invoice” for all countries except for Germany. I have adapted the code from above.
/** Kauf auf Rechnung für das Ausland deaktivieren */ function payment_gateway_disable_country( $available_gateways ) { global $woocommerce; if ( isset( $available_gateways['invoice'] ) && $woocommerce->customer->get_country() 'DE' ) { unset( $available_gateways['invoice'] ); return $available_gateways; } add_filter( 'woocommerce_available_payment_gateways', 'payment_gateway_disable_country' );But it do not work. I get the message:
Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /homepages/37/d591495225/htdocs/***/themes/vendipro/functions.php:1) in /homepages/37/d591495225/htdocs/***/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 1228
Please, help me! Thank you a lot.
Hey Jonas thanks for your comment 🙂 From what I see you have a missing ‘==’ before ‘DE’:
/** Kauf auf Rechnung für das Ausland deaktivieren */ function payment_gateway_disable_country( $available_gateways ) { global $woocommerce; if ( isset( $available_gateways['invoice'] ) && $woocommerce->customer->get_country() == 'DE' ) { unset( $available_gateways['invoice'] ); return $available_gateways; } add_filter( 'woocommerce_available_payment_gateways', 'payment_gateway_disable_country' );Let me know 🙂
Thank you for your help. I have simply copied the code from your answer, but it appears again an error message. Did you have any idea what it could be ?
Jonas, thanks for your feedback! What error are you getting?
Hi again
I forgot to mention, I would like to make changes when customer changes the language (i have WPML) not when they choose county address.
Br, Marko
Got it, short for Slovenia in woocommerce is SI not with litle L but with big i.
Is it possible to add like I asked before on base what kind of language is chosen?
Br, Marko
🙂 Thanks for your feedback Marko!
Hi,
nice code. I want to unset cod for ever country except Slovenia but nothing works. But it does unset cod for every language. I think something is wrong in array(“Sl”) part.
I tried this:
function bbloomer_payment_gateway_enable_country( $available_gateways ) {
global $woocommerce;
// 1. get current country
$ccountry = $woocommerce->customer->get_country();
// 2. check if current country is in your array of countries
$enabledcountries = array(“Sl”);
if (in_array($ccountry, $enabledcountries)) {
$itsenabled = true;
}
// 3. original function
if ( isset( $available_gateways[‘cod’] ) && !$itsenabled ) {
unset( $available_gateways[‘cod’] );
}
return $available_gateways;
}
add_filter( ‘woocommerce_available_payment_gateways’, ‘bbloomer_payment_gateway_enable_country’ );
and this
function payment_gateway_disable_country( $available_gateways ) {
global $woocommerce;
if ( isset( $available_gateways[‘cod’] ) && $woocommerce->customer->get_country() ‘Sl’ ) {
unset( $available_gateways[‘cod’] );
}
return $available_gateways;
}
add_filter( ‘woocommerce_available_payment_gateways’, ‘payment_gateway_disable_country’ );
with different types of language “short tags” like “Sl_sl”, “SL”, “Slovenia”……
tnx, br
This works great, thank you so much!! Is it possible to restrict gateways based on country only for certain products? I want to restrict authorize_net_cim_credit_card but only on certain non-virtual products.
Thanks for your feedback Chris! Sure, you should be able to check if a certain product ID is in the cart before running my function. I suggest to check this blog from Remi Corson, it will send you in the right direction: https://www.remicorson.com/woocommerce-check-if-product-is-already-in-cart/. Thank you!
Thank you Rodolfo!
I used the version to enable!
It worked perfectly!
Awesome!

Is it possible to disable gateway discounts if a specific shipping method is choosen?
Example: When someone pays me in Bank transfer(bacs) they get x amount of discount. If they reach y total cost of items, they get frees hipping, but i dont want them to get this bacs discount if they have free shipping.
Is it possible? Do you have any idea?
Thanks
Lotrai, thanks so much for your feedback! Yes, this is possible – but unfortunately it’s pretty custom and I cannot provide this solution on the blog. If you would like to get a quote, feel free to go here. Thank you! R
Hi Rodolfo Grt Post Helped me a lot. Although instead of country i wanna try this out with postal codes Make COD option available for certain pins…How to do that ?
Amit, thanks for your query! You can get the postcode via $woocommerce->customer->get_shipping_postcode() – and then make the function run only if that variable equals e.g. “90210”. Hope this helps!
Sorry I’m not very PHP savvy, what is code if I only want to enable COD for certain countries? From my understanding, the code in your post will disable for certain countries. I need for multiple so please put a few sample countries in the code.
Thanks so much!
Hey there thanks for your feedback! To enable COD only for certain countries you can use the following workaround (let me know if it works!):
function bbloomer_payment_gateway_enable_country( $available_gateways ) { global $woocommerce; // 1. get current country $ccountry = $woocommerce->customer->get_country(); // 2. check if current country is in your array of countries $enabledcountries = array("UK", "US", "IE", "AU"); if (in_array($ccountry, $enabledcountries)) { $itsenabled = true; } // 3. original function if ( isset( $available_gateways['cod'] ) && !$itsenabled ) { unset( $available_gateways['cod'] ); } return $available_gateways; } add_filter( 'woocommerce_available_payment_gateways', 'bbloomer_payment_gateway_enable_country' );Hi Rodolfo.
Thank you for your code. I can’t make it work with my storefront child theme, only in the storefront theme… It’s no deal breaker, but is it possible to make it work in the child theme?
Obrigado! 🙂
Hi Miguel, thanks for your query 🙂 This is very weird, it should work in the parent or child theme no problem. Maybe you have an error in your child theme’s function.php and therefore the function you added is not loaded?
Hello Rodolfo,
I’ve tried your code on my website but I can’t make it work.
I have 3 countries : FR, BE & CH.
I have 3 payment gateways : cod, cheque & bacs.
I need the 3 gateways to be available for France and I want CH & BE to only use the cod gateway.
Hope it’s clear and you can help me fix this 🙂
Have a nice day !
Hi again,
I finally figured out how to deal with my problem by using this code :
function payment_gateway_disable_country( $available_gateways ) {
global $woocommerce;
if ( isset( $available_gateways[‘cheque’] ) && $woocommerce->customer->get_country() ‘FR’ ) {
unset( $available_gateways[‘cheque’] );
}
if ( isset( $available_gateways[‘bacs’] ) && $woocommerce->customer->get_country() ‘FR’ ) {
unset( $available_gateways[‘bacs’] );
}
return $available_gateways;
}
add_filter( ‘woocommerce_available_payment_gateways’, ‘payment_gateway_disable_country’ );
Thanks for sharing your knowledge with this article 🙂
Awesome Camille, thanks for the feedback!
Hi Rodolfo,
I have been trying out your code and cannot seem to get it to work on https://www.menorcameva.com. What I want to achieve is to remove the “Cash on Delivery” payment option when a client is not in Spain.
This is the code I have used:
function payment_gateway_disable_country( $available_gateways ) {
global $woocommerce;
if ( isset( $available_gateways[‘WC_Gateway_COD’] ) && $woocommerce->customer->get_country() ‘ES’ ) {
unset( $available_gateways[‘WC_Gateway_COD’] );
}
return $available_gateways;
}
add_filter( ‘woocommerce_available_payment_gateways’, ‘payment_gateway_disable_country’ );
It does not seem to be doing anything. Any ideas? Could it have something to do with the version of WooCommerce that we are using?
Hope you can point me in the right direction.
Best regards,
James
James thanks for your feedback!
1) please change all the WC_Gateway_cod with cod
2) please add <> to this line: if ( isset( $available_gateways[‘WC_Gateway_COD’] ) && $woocommerce->customer->get_country() <> ‘ES’ ) {
Hope this helps!
Rodolfo,
The “” between get_country and ‘ES’ did not seem to paste correctly from my code editor. I noticed after hitting the submit button 😉
After the change from WC_Gateway_cod to cod it now works like a charm.
Thanks.
Awesome 🙂
Hi Rodolfo, is it possible to hide all payment methods if customer choose local pickup? So the customer can pay in store…
Thanks a lot
Good question Dario, I’ll write a blog post about this maybe. For now I suggest you to use the Cash on Delivery (COD) payment gateway – and disable all the others if local shipping is chosen.
Its working perfectly fine rest of all countries as well !!
Thank you.
Awesome, thanks Muhammad!
This code is working perfectly fine only if i chose country “US”, rest of all countries are not working.
Thank you Muhammad! Would you be able to send me a copy of your code so that I can take a look? It should work with all countries. Thank you!
Hi Rodolfo, how can i enable just 1 specific payment gateway for 1 country? I want to have customers from holland, to give them the option to pay by invoice.
Like to hear from you.
Greetings carlo
Hello Carlo, thanks for your comment! If you want to “enable” a gateway for a specific country, that’s equivalent to disabling that gateway for every country excluded Holland. Just use this:
function payment_gateway_disable_country( $available_gateways ) { global $woocommerce; if ( isset( $available_gateways['YOUR_GATEWAY_ID'] ) && $woocommerce->customer->get_country() <> 'NL' ) { unset( $available_gateways['YOUR_GATEWAY_ID'] ); } return $available_gateways; } add_filter( 'woocommerce_available_payment_gateways', 'payment_gateway_disable_country' );The code works! Thanks Rodolfo. I tried another option, but i can’t get it worked:
I have also groups with groupricing, for normal B2C users, and for B2B users. Now i want to offer this payment gateway only to people from NL and logged in with B2B account. Can you make a suggestion for me how to solve this?
Thaqnks in advance!!!!
Thank you Carlo! You might want to use something like “if ( is_user_logged_in() && current_user_can( ‘administrator’ ) ) {}”… but of course it depends on the group plugin you’re using. Hope this helps!
