Available Payment Form Types
Jotform covers a wide array of payment structures that you can set up in just minutes.
Here are the available payment types:
- Sell Products
- Sell Subscriptions
- User Defined Amount
- Collect Donations
To learn more, see Order Form Types.
Common Configuration Options
Below are some of the most common features you might want to add to your payment form.
Adding email order confirmations
You can set up an Autoresponder to automatically send an email confirmation after your user submits a form. Email templates are fully customizable.
Implementing coupons, taxes, and shipping fees
Payment tools support coupons, taxes, and shipping. These features are optional and available at the end of the payment integration setup process.
Adding unique order numbers
There are several options available but the most commonly used feature for adding unique order numbers to submissions is the Unique ID widget.
To learn more, see How to Add Custom Unique IDs to Your Form Submissions.
Calculating the amount based on user input
Suppose you need to have real-time, dynamic payment forms. In this case, you can use the Form Calculation widget to calculate the total amount based on your form filler’s answers, then pass the calculated amount to your form’s payment field.
For example, you can assign the prices or calculation values to a Single Choice element’s options, add a Number element for a user-defined amount, and then use a Form Calculation widget to get the total.
Once the amount part is done, you can pass the calculation to the payment field. See demo form.
Implementing stock limits
You can enable stock control to manage and track the stock quantities of your products.
With Jotform’s built-in stock management feature, you can
- Set stock quantity for your products.
- Mark your products as “Sold Out” if they will be available soon.
- Receive out-of-stock emails for sold-out products.
- Choose to receive an email for products if the stock quantity for the product decreases below the predefined amount.
To learn more, see How to Enable and Manage Product Stocks in Payment Fields.
Enabling payment authorization
If you’re interested in two-step payments, it’s possible to authorize payment and capture it later with an “authorize only” integration type.
The “authorize only” payments are supported by PayPal Personal, PayPal Business, PayPal Pro, Square, Stripe, Authorize.Net, Braintree, CyberSource, and Eway. For more information, see How to Enable Payment Authorization.
Emulating Authorize.Net
If you want to use a payment processing service that is not currently supported but can emulate Authorize.Net, you may still be able to use it with Jotform.
To emulate Authorize.Net
- In the Form Builder, open the Authorize.Net integration settings by selecting the wand icon.
- In the settings panel on the right, scroll down and open Additional Gateway Settings.
- Select Emulator and choose a payment service from the menu.
The following services support Authorize.Net emulation:
- eProcessing Network
- GoEmerchant
- MerchantOne
- PayJunction
- USAePay

Does Jotform allow for Revolut payments?
More than a year ago
We need help adding Credit Card processing fees, so that we can pass those on to Square directly. For example one ticket is $1700. We want to pass the 2.9 % Square fees along to the customer. So if we collect $1749.30 from our customer, how do we pass the fees on to square and keep the $1700.
