Payments & access

A payment option is missing at checkout

Quick answer

Checkout hides any provider that isn’t fully set up, is switched off, can’t take your site’s currency or can’t renew the plan being bought. Start with that provider’s card in Gateways.

Check this first

  1. 1
    Open Gateways

    Go to Studio → Management → Payments and click Gateways. Read the chip on each card: Ready, Not configured or Disabled.

  2. 2
    Test the keys

    Expand the card and click TEST CREDENTIALS. You should see “Credentials look good”.

  3. 3
    Check what’s being bought

    A plan with Auto-renew on, or with free trial days, only offers Stripe and Square. PayPal is hidden.

  4. 4
    Check the currency

    Square only appears when your Square location’s currency matches your site currency in Studio → System → Settings → Locale → Region.
