What is Authorize.Net?

Authorize.Net is a payment gateway that lets businesses accept credit cards, debit cards, and eChecks online, over the phone, and in person through a virtual terminal. It is one of the longer-established gateways in the US market and is commonly paired with a separate merchant account or bundled with one through its All-in-One plan.

Authorize.Net charges a flat monthly gateway fee plus per-transaction fees that vary by plan, and offers recurring billing, a Customer Information Manager for storing payment profiles, digital invoicing, and an Advanced Fraud Detection Suite with more than 200 configurable rules. It integrates with many shopping carts and ecommerce platforms and provides 24/7 support.
