Kartra Payment Gateway Options

Updated November 7, 2024

One of the coolest things about Kartra is its natural integration with 5 powerful payment gateways - it makes it super easy for you to receive payments from your customers.

So, let's dive into the 5 (plus one bonus) payment gateways that Kartra supports, and why they're worth checking out:

All credit card processing will incur a fee, those fees are deductible on your taxes!

1. Stripe - this guy is like the cool kid in school, everyone loves him! He's easy to use, super secure, and always reliable. With Stripe, you can accept payments in multiple currencies, set up recurring payments, and even detect fraud. Plus, he has a ton of developer tools and APIs to help you integrate him into your website or app. Stripe is the payment gateway I use and recommend.

   Stripe’s fees can be found here.

2. PayPal - you probably already know this one, he's a classic! With PayPal, you can send and receive payments, manage subscriptions, and process refunds with ease. And, with top-notch security features like fraud protection and buyer protection, you can trust that your business and your customers are in good hands.

   Paypal’s fees can be found here.

   ‼️IMPORTANT - while a great option, integration with Paypal reduces a number of Karta features, you can read more about that here. You can also NOT use a personal Paypal Account as a payment gateway.

3. Authorize.Net - this guy is the real deal, with a ton of features for your business. You can accept credit card and electronic check payments, manage subscriptions, and process refunds with ease. And, with security features like fraud detection and SSL encryption, you can rest assured that your business and your customers are protected.

   Authorize.net’s fees can be found here.

4. Braintree - this guy is a great all-rounder! You can accept credit card and PayPal payments, manage subscriptions, and process refunds with ease. And, with security features like fraud protection and SSL encryption, you can feel confident that your business and your customers are protected.

   Braintree’s fees can be found here.

5. Square - Square is the new kid on the block, but don't let that fool you - she's got some serious skills! With Square, you can accept card payments, set up recurring payments, and manage your transactions from one central place. And, with top-notch security features like PCI compliance and encryption, you can trust that your business and your customers are safe and secure.
   Square requires a Social Security Number during their activation process to ensure that their users are US Citizens. NO SSN No Stripe account.

   ‼️IMPORTANT - Square does not work with Bump Order Pricing

Copied and pasted from the limitations within order bumps

Due to the complex nature of processing two independent transactions simultaneously, there are a few limitations to the bump offer feature:

1. The main offer and the bump offer cannot be of the exact same dollar value.

2. Both the main offer and the bump offer must be configured under the same payment gateway.

3. PayPal is not supported, so don't use bump offers if you've activated PayPal as a payment method for either the main product or the bump offer.

4. Square is not supported, so don't use bump offers if you've activated square as a payment method for either the main product or the bump offer.

5. The bump offer box is very minimalistic from a display point of view within the checkout form. As such, it doesn't display advanced billing items such as shipping or sales tax. Instead, the bump offer will inherit them from the main offer.

6. Again, due to the minimalistic display of the bump offer box, no discount coupon field will be displayed for the bump offer.

Once you’ve established a payment gateway, you can connect your gateway to Kartra. Kartra has provided integration documentation on how to incorporate your chosen payment gateway. When reviewing the documentation, just note that some of the connected providers systems have changed and while the steps are all the same they may look slightly different.

Kartra DOES allow for multiple payment gateways to be connected. You can even connect one credit card gateway +/or Paypal to any of your products.

If you need any assistance connecting your payment gateway, you are welcome to schedule a Strategic Session to get this connected together.
