Authorize.net Payment Gateway Integration
Get paid properly. We connect the gateway to your store or booking system, configure the fraud filters and recurring billing, and test every path before a real customer finds the broken one.
Take Card Payments Without Rebuilding Your Store
A payment gateway is not a shopping cart. It sits between your website and your merchant account, authorizes the card and moves the money — which means you can keep the store, booking form or invoicing system you already have.
The work is in the wiring: the right integration method for your platform, fraud settings tuned to your order profile, and a checkout that does not lose people on the last step. That is what we do.
- Works with WooCommerce, Shopify, PrestaShop, Magento and custom carts
- Hosted or on-site checkout, depending on your PCI scope
- Recurring billing for subscriptions and payment plans
- Card, eCheck and digital wallet payments
Everything Included in Our Gateway Services
Setup, integration, and the configuration work that separates a checkout that takes money from one that quietly declines it.
Gateway Setup & Configuration
Account connected, API credentials issued and stored properly, and transaction settings, receipts and merchant notifications configured from the start.
Cart & Platform Integration
Connected to WooCommerce, PrestaShop, HikaShop, Magento or a custom-built checkout, using the integration method that fits your platform.
Hosted or On-Site Checkout
A hosted payment form keeps card data off your server and shrinks your PCI scope. On-site keeps the customer inside your design. We explain the trade and set up whichever you choose.
Recurring Billing & Subscriptions
Automated Recurring Billing configured for memberships, payment plans and subscriptions — including retry logic and expiring-card handling, which is the part that usually gets skipped.
Fraud Detection Suite
Address, card-code, velocity and IP filters set to your actual order profile — tight enough to stop chargebacks, loose enough not to decline your real customers.
Testing, Go-Live & Support
Sandbox transactions through every path, live low-value test orders and refunds before launch, then support when a payment does something unexpected.

A Checkout That Does Not Lose the Sale
Most abandoned checkouts are not a pricing problem. They are a form asking for too much, an error message that does not say what went wrong, or a payment step that redirects somewhere that looks like a different company.
We keep the payment step short, on-brand and clear about failures, and we test declines as carefully as approvals — because the declined customer is the one who leaves.
A Processor That Has Been Doing This Since 1996
This is one of the oldest and most widely supported gateways on the internet, owned by Visa and used by hundreds of thousands of merchants. Practically every cart and booking platform has an integration for it, which keeps you from being cornered later.
It also keeps your merchant account choice open. The gateway works with most acquiring banks, so you can shop your processing rates without rebuilding the checkout every time you move.
How a Gateway Integration Runs With Us
Payments get settled first — everything else follows from them.
Payments & Scope
We review what you sell, how you are billed today, and what your PCI scope needs to be, then pick the integration method that fits.
Setup & Credentials
Gateway account connected, API credentials issued and stored securely, and transaction, receipt and notification settings configured.
Integrate & Test
Connected to your cart or checkout, fraud filters tuned, then tested in the sandbox and with live low-value transactions and refunds.
Launch & Support
Go-live, staff shown how to find, capture, void and refund a transaction, then support when something unusual comes through.
What Pairs Well With a Payment Gateway
A gateway needs a store around it. These are the services most clients set up at the same time.
WooCommerce
Turn a WordPress site into a full online store, with the gateway wired straight into checkout.
Shopify
Hosted and managed for a monthly fee, with payment options configured and tested for you.
PayPal
Offer a second, familiar payment option alongside cards. Many stores convert better with both.
eCommerce Hosting
Hosting sized for checkout traffic, with SSL, backups and the PCI considerations handled.
Payment Gateways: Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a payment gateway and a merchant account?
The gateway authorizes the card and passes the transaction along. The merchant account is the bank account that receives the money. You need both, and they are usually billed separately. We work with whichever merchant account you already have.
How much does it cost?
There is a monthly gateway fee plus a small per-transaction fee, and your merchant account charges its own processing rates on top. We do not mark those up — we quote the integration work and you keep your own processing relationship.
Which platforms can you connect it to?
WooCommerce, Shopify, PrestaShop, Magento, HikaShop, VirtueMart, most booking and membership systems, and custom-built checkouts through the API. If your platform has an existing extension we configure it; if it does not, we build the integration.
Will card data touch our server?
Not if you use the hosted payment form or the drop-in card fields, which keep card entry inside the gateway’s own components and dramatically reduce your PCI scope. We recommend that route for most businesses and explain the trade-offs if you want the fully on-site version.
Can we take recurring or subscription payments?
Yes. Automated Recurring Billing handles memberships, payment plans and subscriptions, including retry logic and expiring cards. We configure the schedules and the failure handling, not just the happy path.
How do we deal with fraud and chargebacks?
The Fraud Detection Suite gives you address, card-code, velocity and IP filters. Set too tight they decline good customers; set too loose they cost you chargebacks. We tune them to your actual order profile and revisit after the first month of live orders.
Do you help after it is live?
Yes. Gateway settings change, cards fail in new ways, and platform updates occasionally break a payment plugin. We stay on for the changes and re-test the checkout after every major update.
