There is an action hook available for WooCommerce which is woocommerce_payment_complete. now create your own PHP function and add this function into the woocommerce_payment_complete action hook.

Below is a code example which implies the process of running your own PHP code after a successful payment:

<?php
add_action( 'woocommerce_payment_complete', 'code_for_payment' );
function code_after_payment( $order_id ){
  // Write your own PHP code that rns after payment success
}
?>

In the above code, we have created a function code_after_payment and add this in the action hook woocommerce_payment_complete.

   Hi, I want to ask you if that code will run automatically when the gateway send the update, and too where I get the $order_id, if that code runs in background?

   Thank you
