Anyone pulled off backend cloaking from WooCommerce to Shopify?

JankevicsGodhard · Jun 12, 2025

I’ve been researching some flows I’ve seen competitors use and trying to figure out how they’re doing it.
User fills out checkout info on a WooCommerce site (Site A), but instead of processing the payment there, it somehow gets passed in the background to a Shopify store (Site B), which creates a new checkout session with the same details. After that, the user either gets redirected or shown the Shopify payment page directly.
I’m guessing it’s done using some PHP + API or webhook logic, but not 100% sure. Has anyone here built something like this or know what tech stack would be best to pull it off?
Not looking for theory, would love to hear from anyone who’s actually implemented something similar or is open to helping build it. DM or reply. tg:lodewijkdieselhove

The solution to this involves integrating ..WooCommerce with Shopify using APIs and webhooks, where WooCommerce sends checkout data to a custom endpoint, which then uses Shopify's API to create a new checkout session and redirects the user to the Shopify payment page,
likely utilizing PHP, WooCommerce's REST API, and Shopify's REST API.

Quick question, is your main site built in PHP or something else? That would influence how you'd structure the API calls and session handling. I'd be happy to swap ideas if you're diving deeper into the integration.
