Shopify is enhancing its payment platforms and processing functionality. In response, Authorize.net is developing a new connection to the updated Shopify platform. This article provides information to help you plan ahead for this change. The changes to your Shopify account will need to be made by your Shopify Administrator, but the process will be quick and easy.

Steps for the Migration

The migration process will involve a few steps: installing the new application, activating the new application, and deactivating the old application. Future communication will provide all necessary details. To continue offering existing and new customers the option to pay by card at checkout via the Authorize.net gateway, you need to install the new Authorize.net payments app and deactivate the old one on your Shopify dashboard.

Impact of the Migration

If you update in time, there will be no changes for you or your shoppers. However, you should take action as soon as possible. The legacy Authorize.net payment gateway via Shopify will be decommissioned in the future. If you do not update by this date, your payment card option at checkout will disappear. Refunds will not be impacted by this change. You will still be able to process refunds after deactivating the old gateway integration.

Recurring Billing

At this time, the new integration does not support Subscription (Recurring) Billing feature. If you are utilizing this feature, please do not take the action of migration until you receive further updates from us that it is available.

Customer Information Manager

The new Shopify connection will not support CIM. There are no plans to support any connection with CIM.
