Quick Guide: AGM's Authorize.net Payment Gateway Integration

You work hard to deliver beautiful artificial lawns for your customers, and you deserve prompt payment for it. That's why we're excited to announce AGM's new integration with Authorize.net. This integration can help streamline your entire payment process, from sending invoices to following up, receiving payments online, and more.

What is Authorize.net?

Authorize.net is a leading payment gateway used by over 430,000 merchants. It allows you to securely accept credit cards, debit cards, and electronic checks without having to deal with the complexities of PCI compliance and fraud prevention yourself.

By connecting Authorize.net with AGM, you can automate payment collection, reduce admin work, and get paid faster. Here are some of the powerful features at your fingertips:

Seamless Quickbooks Syncing

Don't waste time manually entering payment data into your accounting software. AGM can automatically sync all Authorize.net transactions with Quickbooks Online or Quickbooks Desktop. Customer payments can be matched to the correct invoices, and your books can always be up to date.

Automated Payment Reminders

Chasing down late payments is a thing of the past. With AGM, you can set up automated email and SMS reminders that prompt customers to pay their outstanding invoices. Include a "Pay Now" button that links directly to Authorize.net, so they can settle their balance in just a few clicks.

Opportunity Updates and Notifications

Keep your sales pipeline moving by enabling opportunity stage updates based on payment activity. For example, when a customer pays their deposit, AGM can automatically move them from "Quote Sent" to "Deposit Received" and notify your team.

You can also set up notifications for failed payments, so you can quickly reach out to the customer and resolve any issues.

Centralized Customer Payment Data

AGM can automatically log all Authorize.net payments in the corresponding customer's contact record. You'll have a complete history of their transactions, including invoice numbers, amounts, and dates.

This makes it easy to look up past payments, resend receipts, or issue refunds without having to dig through paper files or multiple systems.

Customizable Payment Forms

With AGM's drag-and-drop form builder, you can create branded payment pages that match your website. Embed these forms on your site or link to them from invoices and quotes.

Customers can enter their payment details, select from multiple payment options, and even set up recurring payments for ongoing services like monthly maintenance plans.

Increased Security and Reduced Liability

By using Authorize.net, you shift the burden of PCI compliance and fraud prevention to a trusted third party. Authorize.net maintains Level 1 PCI compliance, the highest level of security certification.

They also offer advanced fraud detection tools, customer data tokenization, and a $100,000 fraud liability protection plan. This gives you and your customers peace of mind that sensitive payment info is secure.
