How to Edit Payment Gateway Title and Description in WooCommerce

Setting up your payment gateways is one of the first things you should do when building your WooCommerce store. When it comes to paying for their goods, bank transfers aren’t always a safe or easy alternative.

Set Cash On Delivery ( COD ) By default payment option

Select the manage option on the cash-on-delivery option.

Steps to manage Cash on delivery option

• Enable COD: tickmark on eneble checkbox
• Title: Write the title shown to the customer on checkout
• description: Write info shown to customers when they choose the COD option.
• Instruction: write how that works
• Enable shipping methods

Paste this code in the functions.php file in your website theme.

<?php
add_filter( 'woocommerce_gateway_title', 'cxc_change_cod_payment_gateway_title', 25, 2 );

function cxc_change_cod_payment_gateway_title( $title, $gateway_id ){
	
	if( 'cod' === $gateway_id ) {
		$title = 'Cxc Cash on delivery';
	}

	return $title;
}
?>

add_filter( 'woocommerce_gateway_description', 'cxc_change_cod_payment_gateway_description', 25, 2 );

function cxc_change_cod_payment_gateway_description( $description, $gateway_id ) {

	if( 'cod' === $gateway_id ) {
