How to choose the right payment gateway
When you decide to start your ecommerce business with Ecwid, there’s a lot to think about. Out of all the questions you may have when starting up your online business, one stands out: what online payment options are out there? And how will you get paid?
When opening your ecommerce business, it’s important to think through the best method of accepting online payments to find one that fits your needs. There is a choice between a whole bunch of systems for processing credit cards, called payment gateways. Each one is a type of middleman for ecommerce transactions. An online payment gateway connects your store’s customers to a secure payment processor which transfers money from their credit cards into your bank account. It essentially connects your store to the credit card networks, and is a necessary step in your ecommerce journey….that is…if you want to get paid.
Here we’ll discuss exactly what payment gateways are, which payment options are available to you, and help you choose which one is the right fit for your ecommerce store.
You use payment gateways all the time, probably without even thinking about it. Any time you buy something online, use your PayPal account, or even shop in a physical store (when you swipe your card at the coffee shop, for example), your information is being transmitted through a payment gateway. Even though online payment gateways are a part of our daily lives, selecting one for your ecommerce store can still feel daunting.
With so many providers out there, which one is right for you? When choosing the right provider, there are a few important questions to consider:
Luckily, with Ecwid, you have options: there are a variety of online payment gateways already set up and ready to go. Ecwid never will meddle with your store’s payments in any way and we never actually see the credit card numbers being processed by the gateway. Our platform simply connects you with a supported payment gateway provider or offline method established to transfer money from your customers’ accounts to yours!
What is a payment gateway?
Online payment gateways are simply services for conducting ecommerce payments. They’re similar to swiping your credit card at a physical store, using a card reader or cash
For your customers, what will this look like? It depends on the particular
Once the payment gateway verifies the card and completes (or declines) the transaction charge, they send that information to Ecwid. Both you and your customer will be sent confirmation of a successful purchase with updated order status.
From here you can move on to shipping your product, while the money is added into your merchant account, set up with the payment gateway provider. From there, it usually takes a couple of days to transfer into your bank account.
When all is said and done, you’ve conducted the full transaction with your customer in just a few seconds through your ecommerce
We’ve all heard about fraud threats and security breaches. Your customers are thinking about the security of payment transactions, so you should be too. Ecwid works only with secure and trusted payment gateways. There is an increasingly high standard of data encryption that payment gateway providers must comply with, called PCI. Many use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption and other security precautions in order to protect all data exchanged in a transaction.
Ecwid takes extra effort to secure your data: customers must input their information directly in the payment gateway website, so all charges are processed only on the payment side.
Which payment gateway is right for me?
Choosing a payment gateway is a big consideration, and there are many companies that may fit your needs. There are several criteria to consider when choosing a provider company, including ease, security and reliability.
The top four qualifications for a payment gateway are:
If you are new to ecommerce you may want to use a more common, universal payment gateway, like PayPal. If you have a banking relationship that has a standard merchant account they usually work with Authorize.net SIM. Your business might work best with an international gateway, like 2Checkout, to accept worldwide payments. Or you can select a
You also need to make sure they’re the right fit for your business. What if you’d like to keep your user in your store, rather than redirecting them to the payment gateway website? Some store owners may prefer an
Finally, you have to consider the cost of a payment gateway that fits the needs of your business. Every gateway has a different fee structure and offers different features. Consider what your top priorities are for your payment gateway. Accepting international payment? Low transaction fees? No monthly charge?
Many payment gateways charge flat transaction fees, while
How do online payment options work?
If you’re selling items in a retail store, you receive a payment at the time you complete a transaction. This payment might consist of cash, a credit card or check and is given to you on the spot.
When selling online, there is an online payment method, which represents an immediate transfer of money from a buyer’s account to a seller’s. If you sell items online, the process of accepting online payments involves three parties:
With Ecwid, you won’t have to do any programming to accept online payments. After a buyer clicks the Continue button during the final checkout step, he or she will arrive at a secure payment gateway site. Here, the buyer can choose an online payment method and submit the payment, and Ecwid will transfer the customer and order information (order total, tax amount, shipping cost, and shipping/billing address) to the payment gateway.
The payment gateway connects the buyer’s online payment method to your bank account. That way, money is charged to the buyer, or the transaction is declined (e.g. if a buyer’s online payment method includes incorrect information or there are insufficient funds in a buyer’s bank account.) The payment gateway sends a transaction confirmation back to Ecwid, which will accept the confirmation and update the order status in the control panel. Ecwid then will notify the store owner and customer about the order status via email. Most importantly the merchant account is what sends this money minus any fees to your bank account.
Which payment gateways work on Ecwid?
With all our supported online payment gateways, the technology is automatically integrated into Ecwid, so you won’t have to do any programming. You can quickly set up your payment gateway, get your store launched, and start working. Ecwid supports only known and trusted gateways with a strong security reputation, ensuring the protection of you and your customers’ financial information.

Three popular payment gateways
supported by Ecwid
Stripe
Stripe offers
You can get in touch with a Stripe service agent directly with their 24/7 worldwide support via phone, chat, and email. Stripe is secure, trusted, and always has something new to offer.
PayPal
PayPal is widely used and available in 190 countries. It offers a variety of plans to meet merchant needs, no matter the size of their business. PayPal is also easy to use. It has name recognition and is considered reliable. For businesses with a high sales volume, PayPal discounts transaction fees.
There are many different plans under PayPal — Standard and Express Checkout are simple to start but lead the customers away from your site. They also have native gateways (Advanced and Payflow) which keep the customer on your site but require monthly fees and take more time to set up.
Authorize.Net
Authorize.Net is the original payment gateway and has been in business for twenty years. As such, it’s a trusted name in POS and works as a gateway to most of the traditional banking systems. It has a lower transaction fee than average at just $0.10 and accepts international transactions, all major credit cards, and other payment methods.
Authorize.Net is only available to businesses in the U.S., Canada, U.K., Australia, and Europe.
In conclusion
When it comes to getting paid, you need to choose a payment gateway with low or reasonable fees, one that works securely, and in a
