Supported payment methods

The following payment methods are supported by the Shopify plugin:

Payrexx Pay

Payrexx Pay Plus

External Payment Providers

Pricing information

For payments processed through Shopify, a fee of 0.35 % per transaction applies, in addition to the Payrexx transaction fees. Additionally, Shopify charges transaction fees depending on the Shopify plan selected.

Setup

In this section, you will learn how to install the plugin and configure it on both Payrexx and Shopify pages.

Installation

Open the plugin installation link or click on the link on the presentation page in the App Store.
Select the store you want to install the app to.
Click "Install" in the upper-right corner to initialize the installation process.

Next, you will see an overview of the Payrexx Payment App. The app requires certain access rights. Click on the "Install" button if you agree with the app accessing this data.

Following the installation, you will be redirected to the configuration page (on the Payrexx side) of the plugin. For authentication, you will need to enter the following information from the Payrexx dashboard or your platform's dashboard:
- URL of the platform (e.g. payrexx.com)
- Instance name *
- API-Key (see section "Configuration - Payrexx")
Save the values by clicking the "Save" button in the bottom right-hand corner. * The instance name is the name of your Payrexx account. You will find it at the beginning of the URL when you are logged into your account: INSTANCE.payrexx.com.

If the entered data is correct, you will be redirected to the next configuration page. Here, you can choose which payment methods you want to make available in your shop. These settings will only affect the display of payment methods at your shop's checkout. The display of payment methods in the payment gateway is configured in the Payrexx dashboard (see point 7).

Open the payment provider and payment method settings of your Payrexx account. Only select the payment methods that have already been selected in Shopify (point 6). If this is not the case, you may see more payment methods in the payment gateway than at the checkout in the shop.
Click the "Activate" button to complete the integration. In this article, you will find an example of how payment methods can be configured within the Payrexx account for Payrexx Pay and Payrexx Pay Plus.

Configuration of Payrexx

Make sure you're logged in to your Payrexx account before you begin. If you don’t have a Payrexx account yet, you can register now.

Navigate to API & Plugins and add a new Shopify integration from the e-commerce section.

Enter your Shopify store URL (ending with myshopify.com) and activate the new integration. You will need the Payrexx "API Key" and "Instance Name" during the plugin configuration step.

Configuration of Shopify

During installation, you will be guided through all configuration steps. If you wish to update settings at a later time, you can do so at the following locations:

Payment Method Configuration: Settings > Payments > Payrexx

Plugin Configuration: Settings > Payments > Payrexx > More Actions > Manage

Refunds

Refunds should only be issued via the Shopify Admin Dashboard. This ensures that the information is synchronized between both platforms. If you issue a refund in the Payrexx merchant backend, it will be processed correctly but will not be transmitted to Shopify.

Manual Order Creation

If you wish to manually create an order for a customer, the recommended method is Purchase on Invoice. However, since this payment method is not supported by the Shopify plugin, you must create the respective order not in Shopify, but in the Payrexx merchant administration.

Order Process from the Customer's Perspective

The following sequence outlines the ordering and payment of a product in a Shopify store with an integrated payment solution from Payrexx:

The customer selects a product and adds it to the shopping cart:

After entering the address details and reviewing the shopping cart, the customer proceeds to checkout:

The customer is redirected to Payrexx and selects the preferred payment method from the list; in this example, Visa:

The customer enters their email address and card details and completes the order:

The payment in the Shopify store is thereby successfully completed.
