Accepting Payments: An Overview

4 min read
Important:
You must upgrade your site to a Premium or Studio plan that supports payments in order to accept payments. 
Accept payments for goods or services directly through your site. Wix offers different payment methods and providers depending on your location. In most countries, you can select one or more of Credit Card, PayPal and Manual payments to appear on your checkout page. This gives your customers more ways to pay. 
Depending on the availability and choice of your payment provider, you may also offer alternative options to your customers such as Apple Pay, cryptocurrency payments, recurring payments, BNPL (buy now, pay later) payments, Point of Sale, payments for CBD products, and more.

Third-party payment providers

If your business is not in a location covered by Wix Payments, or if you'd prefer to use an alternative payment provider, Wix has partnered with over 70 other providers around the world to offer you all the benefits they have to give. Providers operate in different regions and you can view a complete list of the providers available in your country

Alternative payment options

Different providers offer a variety of payment services; some of the most popular of which are detailed below. Wherever possible, Wix Payments works to fulfil all your payment needs. If a service is unavailable with Wix Payments in your location, we do our best to offer another provider that can help, and we're always adding more. 

Installment payments

Boost your sales by allowing your customers the choice to pay in a series of installments. This option to 'buy now, pay later' is an increasingly popular option for customers who want to make a purchase, but prefer to pay in manageable chunks rather than a lump sum.  
Once you’ve connected an installment solution, shoppers will automatically see this payment option available on your product pages and checkout. They’ll see how many installments are available and the amount due for each payment.
Installment providers are available worldwide. Check out the installment providers available in your country.

Recurring payments

If you have a subscription service that requires your customers to renew their payment on a regular basis, you'll need a payment provider that supports recurring payments.  
Recurring payments can be used across many Wix apps such as Wix Stores, Wix Video, Pricing Plans and Recurring Invoices. See a list of available providers that allow recurring payments

Cryptocurrency payments

You can accept Bitcoin payments using Bankful as a payment provider in Wix. This gives your customers an opportunity to purchase your goods and services with a unique and blockchain secured digital payment method. 
Even if you already accept payments with another provider such as Wix Payments, you can still add Bankful to handle your Bitcoin payments without having to disconnect your Wix Payments account.
