Mixed results, with issues
Since switching to eWay via this plug-in, we've had numerous customers complain about not being able to make payment. It's not affecting everyone, as orders are still rolling in from other customers. The plug-in causes a number of errors that show up in the server error logs. What's worse, is after disabling the plug-in I can't for the life of me get it to stop loading its assets on the checkout. Have disabled Cloudflare caching, cleared server level caching, cleared Wordpress level caching (all 15 plus times), and it still loads its assets during checkout. Not something I've ever come across before. It's seems impossible to get this plug-in to go away. Next I'll have to delete it, to see if it then stops affecting our checkout. Very odd. I prefer the eWay implementation from WebAware. However, we could use that as it was supported by a checkout plugin we use (FunnelKit), so we had to switch to this buggy eWay plugin. Now looking at dropping eWay entirely due to the issues with this plugin.

Problematic
We previously used the non native eway plugin by webaware. Worked fine. Moved to this one and it started putting payments through as recurring subscription payments. We do not offer recurring sub payments never have, have no software on our website to do with this and never will. eway said to ask woo commerce. Woo commerce took no liability and told us to disconnect all the plugins move to storefront theme etc and trouble shoot despite the non native plugin working perfectly. Every time woocommerce gets involved with a payment gateway plugin it does not work properly. Stripe is problematic, woocommerce paypal is problematic. Which is why from now on I will never use any of them.

Bug in the plugin
I've been emailing WooCommerce about this bug for about 6 months. Big shame on WooCommerce for not taking care of this issue. Despite several update releases from them, it is still yet to be fixed, so here is the bug and the fix. When using with a multi-currency site, you will get problems with payments and the amounts charged. To fix it: /plugins/woocommerce-gateway-eway/includes/class-wc-eway-api.php on line 203. This: 'CurrencyCode' => get_woocommerce_currency(), Should be this: 'CurrencyCode' => $pre_wc_30 ? $order->get_order_currency() : $order->get_currency(),
