I wonder if there are any difficulties while integrating a few payment gateways to my online sellvia store? I don't have any problems with paypal only, but my customers asked to add a few different ways to pay since paypal is not convenient for everyone. So now I'm thinking about adding a few more different payment gateways and wanna ask someone with similar experience what payment gatewayes I should combine and how to avoid mistakes and difficulties with it
It’s about finding the right mix that suits your customers, maybe consider options like Stripe or Square. Just take your time to test everything out before going live to avoid any hiccups.
If PayPal is working smoothly, adding Stripe or Authorize.net is a great option—they're user-friendly and support many cards. The key is to check if all gateways integrate properly with Sellvia to avoid conflicts. Also, test the payment process before launching to ensure a seamless experience for customers
The main headaches I have seen with several gateways are order status and refunds. Each gateway sends its own webhook, so make sure your store only marks an order paid once, and log every callback so you can see duplicates. Keep the refund process in one place, because refunding from the wrong dashboard gets messy fast. Test each gateway in its sandbox with failed, cancelled and pending payments, not just the happy path. Also check that currencies and payout schedules match, otherwise reconciling at month end is painful. Start with two gateways and add more only when customers actually ask.
