Hide Payment Methods for Shipping Methods in WooCommerce

If you want to hide specific payment methods for selected shipping methods you just need to add a small code snippet into your functions.php file. An example could be if you want to hide the cheque payment for the local shipping method you can use this:

function we_gateway_disable_shipping( $available_gateways ) {
 
    global $woocommerce;
   
    if ( !is_admin() ) {
         
        $chosen_methods = WC()->session->get( 'chosen_shipping_methods' );
         
        $chosen_shipping = $chosen_methods;
         
        if ( isset( $available_gateways ) && 0 === strpos( $chosen_shipping, 'local_pickup' ) ) {
            unset( $available_gateways );
        }
         
    }
     
	return $available_gateways;  
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_available_payment_gateways', 'we_gateway_disable_shipping' );

If you do not know the name of your WooCommerce Payment method you want to hide you can inspect the checkout page like this:
