Alternative Payment Methods for Commerce Web Stores

This information refers to SuiteCommerce, SuiteCommere MyAccount, and the Mont Blanc release of SuiteCommerce Advanced and later.

If you want your customers to use payment methods other than credit cards, you can create custom payment options that show up in your store and are accepted as valid payment methods for orders.

After you enable alternative payment methods, your customers can choose a payment option that communicates with an external payment gateway that is provided by a third-party company offering payment processing services.

Alternative payment methods are available to your customers in the following situations:

When choosing a payment method during checkout.
When paying for sales orders converted from a quote.
When paying an invoice.

After a user picks an alternative payment method, they're prompted to leave your website and go to a third-party payment site for authentication.

If approved, the customer comes back to your website at the Order Confirmation page. If rejected, they're sent to your Payment Method page to pick a different method. If the customer cancels payment on the third-party site, the payment event is canceled in NetSuite and they're sent to the My Account home page.

See Checkout for information about customizing checkout experiences on your Commerce website.

Perform the following actions to set up alternative payment methods using external payment processing on your website:
