In order to add new payment method to WPJB, you need to do few things. Create new WordPress plugin, create class that will extend WPJB_Payment_Interface and apply filter that will register new payment method.

The functionality is in beta phase, so it might slightly change in the future.

Below you can download working example that will add Payment by cash to WPJobBoard, the only thing you need to do is upload it to wp-content/plugins directory and activate “WPJobBoard Mod” plugin in wp-admin/plugins.php section.

If everything will be ok, in Add Job form “Payment Method” field should appear with options “PayPal” and “Pay by cash”.
