For developers
Two WordPress actions let you add your own scripts and styles to the Blink payment form: wc_blink_custom_script and wc_blink_custom_style.
add_action('wc_blink_custom_script', function () {
wp_enqueue_script('my-handle');
});
add_action('wc_blink_custom_style', function () {
wp_enqueue_style('my-handle');
});With Direct integration, the plugin loads Blink's hosted fields script to turn card details into a payment token on Blink's servers.
