  • Third-Party Solution

Authorize.Net® enables all types of merchants to accept secure and reliable credit card and electronic check payments quickly and easily. We offer flexible application programming interfaces (APIs) with no licensing or developing fees, and have numerous certified third-party options that offer quick and secure integration methods. Choose one of the three processes below to get started.

  1. Do It Yourself
    Our easy-to-implement Simple Checkout allows customers to purchase single items (in any quantity) using our hosted payment form. Simply enter appropriate item information, and HTML code is created to insert Donate or Buy Now buttons into your Web site.

    Merchants and developers with Web expertise and resources who are able to perform their own integration can find time-saving resources such as sample code, documentation, troubleshooting tools, FAQs, and everything else they need to get started in our Developer Center.

  2. Contract a Certified Developer
    If you need the expertise and convenience of a Web developer to implement your payment gateway integration, we highly recommend you choose an Authorize.Net Certified Developer. Our Certified Developers must meet rigorous integration standards and provide samples of successful integrations.

  3. Select a Pre-Integrated Solution
    Choosing a pre-integrated product is often the easiest and most practical integration method. There are several Authorize.Net solutions that enable you to submit transactions right away, as well as hundreds of certified, third-party solutions. Our Certified Solutions meet the highest security and integration requirements, including our preferred Advanced Integration Method (AIM).

    • Web Merchants – Authorize.Net Certified Shopping Carts automatically connect your Web site to the payment gateway, allowing you to accept payments immediately.
    • Retail and Mobile Merchants – Ready-to-go point-of-sale (POS) solutions include our own Virtual Point of Sale as well as numerous third party card swipe terminals, software, self-service kiosks, and mobile devices. A list of our partners' Certified POS Solutions can be found in our Certified Solution Directory.
      • Mail Order / Telephone Order (MOTO) Merchants – Authorize.Net Payment Gateway accounts come standard with browser-based Virtual Terminal and Batch Upload capabilities for submitting transactions any time. To process payments, you simply log into the Merchant Interface.
