How to integrate Authorize.Net with Fluent Forms

Authorize.net is a global payment gateway that gives you Visa, credit card, and electronic payment services. With Fluent Forms, you can easily credit and debit your online payment.

Remember, Authorize.Net Integration is a Premium Feature of the Fluent Forms Plugin. So, you need the Fluent Forms Pro plugin to integrate this.

Enable Authorize.net Payment Method #

First, go to Global Settings from the Fluent Forms Navbar, open the Payment tab from the left sidebar, and click the Payment Methods option.

Now, go to Authorize.Net in the top navbar and click Enable Authorize.Net Payment Method. The Mollie Payment Method will be enabled globally for all forms. 

Configure Authorize.Net with Fluent Forms  #

Once you enable Authorize.Net, all the required settings will appear to configure Authorize.Net with Fluent Forms. 

Before starting the configuration, select any Payment Mode between Test (for test payments) and Live (for real payments), as both options follow the same process, e.g., we chose the Test Mode.

Then, you need to select Transaction Type, obtain the API  Login ID, Transaction key, and Webhook signature key from your Authorize.Net Account. 

Also, you need to set up the Authorize.Net Webhook Setup. Copy your website webhook URL from this page for later use.

Integrate Authorize.Net in Forms  #

Once you finish setting up your Authorize.Net payment method, you can easily add this payment method to any of your existing Payment Forms (i.e., a form where Payment Item and Payment Method fields are added).

Note: If you do not have any existing Payment Forms, read this Documentation to learn how to create one.

First, go to the Editor page of your desired form by clicking its Edit option.

Once you are on the Editor page, go to the Input Customization menu on the right side of the added Payment Method field by clicking the Pencil Icon.

Now, go to the Payment Methods, check the Authorize.Net option, click the Dropdown Arrow, and you will get the option.

• Method Label: Here, you can change the label based on your preference for your added payment method.

To learn more details about the Payment Method field, read this Documentation. 

Once you complete the edit, press the Save Form button to save all the changes.

To embed and display your form on a specific page or post, simply copy the shortcode from the top-right corner of the screen. Then, paste it into the content area of your desired page or post where you want the form to appear.

If you’d like to see how the form looks before publishing, click on the Preview & Design button in the middle of the page. This allows you to review and adjust the design before making it live.
