Overview
For WordPress sellers using Easy Digital Downloads, this plugin adds Authorize.net as a payment option for digital product purchases. Customers can enter their card details and complete checkout on the site, while the gateway processes the transaction through Authorize.net. This setup suits stores that want to accept card payments within their existing Easy Digital Downloads checkout.
The plugin provides payment settings for configuring the gateway, including a test mode for checking payments before accepting live transactions. Store owners can view transaction activity from the WordPress dashboard. When Authorize.net declines a transaction, the order is marked as failing in Easy Digital Downloads and the decline is logged, giving the store a record to review.
