How to integrate Authorize.Net with Jotform?

Jotform has been making collecting payments through online forms easy for its users. And one of the most popular Payment Processing Apps that Jotform has is Authorize.Net. Setting up Authorize.Net payment integration with forms created in Jotform is as easy as 1, 2, 3.

Setting Up the Authorize.Net Payment Element

Adding the Authorize.Net element will automatically open the Payment Settings. If not, click the Wand icon on the right side of the Authorize.Net element to open it.

By default, this option is disabled. Related Guide: How to Test Authorize.net Payment Tool on Sandbox Mode.
• Authorization Only – the Auhorize.Net payment integration allows payment authorization or, also known as, two-steps payment processing.

• Emulator – the payment processing services that support Authorize.Net emulation can be set on this option. With this feature, Jotform may still be able to send the transaction to these Payment Gateways that are not currently supported. This is, by default, set to None.

Once everything is set up from the Payment Settings, click the Continue button at the bottom to add your products. If you have chosen User Defined Amount or Collect Donation options, click the Save button, and you’re done.
