In order to be successful in the e-commerce world, many brands prefer ready-made e-commerce infrastructures. The Shopify store, which offers a user-friendly interface and easy access to frequently used applications and modules in the e-commerce field, is the first choice of many businesses.
For businesses that implement their e-commerce operations with a Shopify infrastructure, the most important agenda item is how they will receive payment. In this article, we will answer the question, “How can you receive payment for your Shopify store?”
Creating a Shopify Account
If you want to start your business’s online operations or migrate your existing operations to Shopify infrastructure, the first thing you need to do is create a Shopify account .
At this stage;
- You decide which subscription package to choose according to your business needs,
- To start selling, you need to provide the documentation required by Shopify.
Once you have created your account, you can set up the basic settings of your store and start offering your products and services with your Shopify store .
Another step you need to take here is to decide which third-party providers you will work with. To do this, you need to complete an agreement with the shipping carrier, payment service provider, etc. that Shopify supports.
However, since Shopify does not support similar providers or features in every region, it is useful to thoroughly research which payment providers it works with and which apps it supports in your region.
Choosing Payment Provider
Türkiye is not among the countries supported by Shopify Payments, so you need to work with a payment institution for your business’s Shopify store.
However, if you are going to create an online store with Shopify Turkey, the number of organizations you can receive payments from is limited. Therefore, not every payment service provider you have an agreement with may be supported by Shopify. Therefore, it would be correct to determine which payment service providers Shopify supports and make a choice between these providers.
The alternative and more effective way to follow here is to use the Craftgate module in the Shopify App Store. Because Craftgate allows you to use the payment providers you have an agreement with through the Shopify store. In other words, even if you have an agreement with a virtual POS or payment institution that Shopify does not support in Turkey, you can use these providers when receiving payments in your Shopify store by activating the Craftgate module .
Thus, you can gain a competitive advantage in your Shopify store by taking advantage of the advantages offered by different payment service providers, such as additional installments, commission rates, etc.
Conclusion
Ultimately, choosing the right payment provider for your Shopify store is a critical step in ensuring the success of your ecommerce operations. However, if you operate in Turkey, you will have to work with a limited number of payment providers that Shopify supports.
However, with modules such as Craftgate that allow you to access any payment service provider you want, you can eliminate this limitation and offer your customers flexible and advantageous payment options.
