Problem and result
How to Add Payment Gateway in Shopify: A Checkout That Takes Money From Day One
Many launches stall on payments: the wrong provider for the country, a method left off, a currency not supported or an account half verified. Connecting the provider properly and testing a checkout finds those problems before a customer does.
A store that cannot take payments yet
The provider is not connected, a currency or method is missing or verification stalled. Nobody has tested a checkout, so the first real customer finds the problem.
A checkout that has been proved
The provider is connected, methods and currencies are set and a test checkout has gone through. Fees and limits are written down from the provider's own page, with steps for a failed payment.
What is included
What Your Payment Set-Up Includes
When you add a payment gateway in Shopify, you get the connection, the settings and a test checkout.
Implementation checklist
- One payment provider chosen with you for your country and connected in Shopify
- Payment methods, currencies and express wallets set
- The checkout order of methods tidied
- Manual payment methods, such as bank transfer, worded clearly if you use them
- Payout details and schedule checked in the provider's settings
- A test checkout completed with the provider's test mode
- Fees and limits written down from the provider's own page
- A note on what to do when a payment fails
The provider's identity and bank checks must be completed by you, and approval is the provider's decision. Fees, limits and terms are theirs and change over time, so we note them from their page and do not quote or promise them.
See how it works
From No Way to Pay to a Checkout That Has Been Tested
Follow the proof. A test shopper adds an item, checks out with each method and the payment lands in your provider account.

What we need to get started
What We Need to Get Payment Gateway Setup Started
To begin the payment gateway setup you only need to pick an access route and answer the points below, and your live store stays untouched until you say go.
Collaborator access
Approve our collaborator request for the payment gateway setup from your Shopify admin, and you remain the owner and can revoke access the moment the work is finished.
No store yet? We build it first
If you are still planning your store, we build the payment gateway setup in a development store and pass it to you complete, with your plan chosen last.
Prefer to share a login?
A staff account works for the payment gateway setup if you prefer one, but a collaborator request is simpler to withdraw so it is our first suggestion.
Your sales
Tell us the countries and currencies you sell in and which provider you prefer.
Your accounts
Tell us whether the provider account exists and who completes its checks.
One decision maker
Someone with the final say on the payment gateway setup, so the two included revision rounds go as far as possible.
When you cannot decide how to give access for the payment gateway setup, tell us in the form that follows checkout and we will choose the simplest route with you.
