Connect Your Authorize.net Account

Connecting your organization's Authorize.net account allows your members to use their credit or debit card to make payments through AMO—for purchases including events, membership, your online store, donations, or generic invoices. Members will never be taken to the external PayPal site; they'll stay on the same page as their registration, creating a seamless checkout process.

Before You Begin

Create an account with Authorize.net, if you haven't already (linked here). Authorize.net offers multiple options for payment gateway services, all of which integrate with AMO.

To connect your Authorize.net account to AMO, you will need your Authorize.net API Login ID and Transaction Key. To find this information in your Authorize.net account, follow these steps:

1. Log in to Authorize.net.
   
   
2. Select My Account.
   
   
3. Select API Login ID & Transaction Key.
   
   
4. Answer the security question.

Your API Login ID and Transaction Key will be displayed; keep this window/tab open, or write the information down elsewhere.

Connect Your Authorize.net Account to AMO

One you have your Authorize.net API Login ID and Transaction Key, switch back to AMO and go to Financial Information > Credit Card Settings.

1. Select "Authorize.net" from the Processing Company drop-down menu;
   
   
2. Enter your Authorize.net API Login ID into the Account Login field in AMO.
   
   
3. Enter your Authorize.net Transaction Key into the Account Password field in AMO.
   
   
4. Select Update Credit Card Settings to save changes.

A green confirmation message will appear at the top of the screen when changes have been successfully saved.
