Set Up Online Payments (Authorize.Net, CARDZ3N, PayPal)

Step-by-step instructions

1. 1 Open Company Profile

   In the left sidebar, click Configuration → Company Profile. Scroll to the Online payments section.

   

2. 2 Choose your processor

   Most coin dealers use Authorize.Net or CARDZ3N because Stripe commonly blocks coin/currency merchant accounts. PayPal is optional. You only need one card processor.

3. 3 Set up Authorize.Net (recommended)

   Log in to your Authorize.Net merchant portal. Copy your API Login ID, Transaction Key, and Public Client Key. Back in SpotPro, paste each into the labeled fields under Authorize.Net.

4. 4 Or set up CARDZ3N

   If your processor uses CARDZ3N, enter your CARDZ3N credentials in the labeled fields. The checkout experience is the same — customers enter card details on your extracoins.com page without leaving your site.

5. 5 Add PayPal (optional)

   For PayPal, create a PayPal Business account. Copy the REST Client ID and Secret from the PayPal developer portal. Paste into the PayPal fields. Checkout redirects to PayPal — you do not need PayPal to accept cards.

6. 6 Enable fraud filters

   In your Authorize.Net merchant portal, open Fraud Detection Suite. Enable Shipping-Billing Mismatch and Address Verification (AVS). SpotPro also blocks PO Box ship-to addresses at checkout.

7. 7 Click Save

   Scroll to the bottom of the Online payments section. Click Save. Wait for the green confirmation.

8. 8 Place a test order

   Click Ecommerce → Open My Store. Add a low-priced item to your cart. Proceed through checkout — enter test billing and shipping addresses that match. Complete payment with a real card.

   

9. 9 Confirm payment in your processor dashboard

   Log in to Authorize.Net (or your processor). Confirm the test transaction appears. Note the transaction ID.

10. 10 Refund the test order

    In Ecommerce → Orders, find the test order. Process a refund through your payment processor. Never leave test charges on a real card.

11. 11 Go live

    Once the test passes, your store accepts real payments. Share your yourname.extracoins.com URL with customers. Never key card numbers over the phone — send customers to your online checkout.
