## Description

eDebit Direct Draft adds a payment gateway to WooCommerce that allows merchants 
to accept Draft payments through the eDebit Direct payment service.

When a customer selects eDebit Direct Draft during WooCommerce checkout, the plugin
creates a payment session with the eDebit Direct service. The customer is then redirected
to the eDebit Direct hosted payment application to complete the payment process.

The plugin provides the WooCommerce integration and communicates with the eDebit
Direct service. Payment processing, bank-account connectivity, account verification,
and related downstream functionality are handled by eDebit Direct’s services.

The plugin does not directly integrate with Yodlee. Any Yodlee or other third-party
bank-connectivity functionality used by eDebit Direct is managed by eDebit Direct
and its service providers.

### Key Features

 * WooCommerce Draft payment gateway integration.
 * Redirect customers to the eDebit Direct hosted payment application.
 * Secure communication with the eDebit Direct service over HTTPS.
 * WooCommerce order and customer information can be transmitted to eDebit Direct
   when a payment is initiated.
 * Supports WooCommerce checkout integration.
 * Supports WooCommerce Checkout Blocks.
 * Merchant configuration through WooCommerce payment settings.
 * Uses eDebit Direct API credentials configured by the merchant.
 * Payment result handling and WooCommerce order status updates.

### External Service

This plugin communicates with the eDebit Direct service to create and process payment
sessions.

The plugin communicates with the following eDebit Direct application:

https://app.edebitdirect.com/

The eDebit Direct service is used when a customer selects the eDebit Direct Draft
payment method and initiates a payment.

During payment processing, the plugin may transmit information required to create
and process the payment session. This may include:

 * WooCommerce order ID
 * Order amount
 * Customer first name
 * Customer last name
 * Customer email address
 * Customer phone number
 * Billing address
 * City
 * State
 * Country
 * ZIP/postal code
 * Payment method information required by the eDebit Direct service

After the payment session is created, the customer is redirected to the eDebit Direct
hosted payment application to complete the payment process.

The eDebit Direct service may use third-party services for payment processing, bank
connectivity, account verification, or related functionality. Such functionality
is provided and managed by eDebit Direct and is not directly integrated into this
WordPress plugin.

When the eDebit Direct Draft payment method is used, the plugin sends information
