    help question Is it time to add authorize.net as an option?

    Last year I launched a small zen store and it has done decently bringing in a few hundred dollars per month. Currently I use paypal for all of my payment processing.

    I've noticed a trend that approximately 10% of new customers sign up for an account and make it all the way through the checkout process, but then stop when it's time to head to paypal for payment.

    My only guess is that they don't want to use paypal. So I'm wondering, should I add authorize.net as an option? I'm not a high volume seller, so I'm not sure the additional sales would offset the higher costs.

    Any suggestions here on this or alternative methods would be greatly appreciated.

    Default Re: Is it time to add authorize.net as an option?

    Anything you do that will make checking out of your shop easier, faster, more secure, more 'familiar' will usually increase sales and conversions. I would highly recommend using AuthorizeNet. The module is in the core and ready to install as soon as you have your account information.
    Please do not PM for support issues: a private solution doesn't benefit the community.

    Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.
