Authorize.Net integration

This article describes how to find required information for IdeaRoom to set up your Authorize.Net integration. Authorize.net allows you to accept credit card payments from your customers.

To begin, you will set up an account with Authorize.net that includes the banking information where payments will be deposited. Note that your website must include required items for Authorize.net to approve your account.

These include the following:

• Return/Refund Policy

• Delivery/Shipping Policy

• Terms of Purchase

• Privacy Policy

• Display of Card Brand logos (such as VISA or Mastercard)

You can find examples of the policies by searching on Google or using an AI tool like ChatGPT.

Once you have an account established with Authorize.net, IdeaRoom will require three items from your Authorize.net subscription to create the security bridges required to take payments:

• API Login ID

• Transaction Key

• Public Client Key

See the information below on how to find these IDs and keys.
