Why warning message: Sorry, it seems that there are no available payment methods for your state, appearing in WooCommerce checkout?

You can see the mentioned warning message on the WooCommerce checkout page. It can be frustrating because your customers cannot complete the purchase of the advertised products from your WooCommerce store 😔.

sorry, it seems that there are no available payment methods for your state - Active Payments WooCommerce

Why does this message appear?

Because in WooCommerce, you need at least one payment method enabled thus available for clients. If no payment gateways are installed, you can use WooCommerce default options like Direct bank transfer, Check payments, and Cash on delivery.

👉 In the next paragraph, I will show you how to configure WooCommerce to avoid annoying warning messages on the WooCommerce checkout page 💪.

How to set up a payment method in WooCommerce?

If you see a warning message in WooCommerce, Sorry, it seems that there are no available payment methods for your state; that is what you should do:

How to enable cash on delivery in WooCommerce for specific shipping methods?

  1. Create a shipping method for Poland.
  2. Go to WooCommerce → Settings → Payments.
  3. Choose Cash on Delivery and click Manage.
  4. In the Enable for shipping methods field, choose a shipping method.

That's it. Now only customers from Poland can pay via COD in your store.

Sometimes the shipping methods chosen in the "Enable for shipping methods" field may cause the method to hide from other countries. Please remember that. For example, if the order was from the US, cash on delivery would not appear.

Active Payments WooCommerce - a plugin to configure payments and shipping in one place!

Now I write a few words about the genius plugin Active Payments WooCommerce ⭐.

Imagine that you have a few different payment methods in your shop and can conditionally display them for shipping options. Great, isn't it 😊?

  1. First, visit our store and purchase Active Payments WooCommerce.
  2. Install the plugin on your website → here you can find a quick tutorial.
  3. Go to the plugin settings.
  4. You will see a table with all payments and shipping methods.
  5. Choose which payment method should appear for each shipping method.

How does it work? Let's take a look:

Conditional shipping and payments methods - Active Payments WooCommerce

Watch our video, where we set up Active Payments from scratch and connect payment methods with shipping methods in the WooCommerce checkout. We show how to hide prepaid options when the customer chooses cash on delivery, how to add a fee to a selected payment method, and where to look when the "no available payment methods" message keeps coming back after configuration.

As you can see, now you can configure and show specific payment methods for different shipping methods more easily and in one place ⭐!

One more thing! The Active Payments WooCommerce plugin will also let you enable additional fees based on the payment gateway.

The end of Woocommerce sorry, it seems that there are no available payment methods for your state message.

I hope you find this article helpful 😊. Please remember that you can try all our plugins for free in our demo. Also, for more pieces of information, visit our blog. If you have any questions let us know. Good luck with your store!
