Hosted storefront payments

Connect regional payment gateways to an Ecwid store

Connect supported Powertranz, MPGS, Lynk, or Wompi merchant accounts to an Ecwid storefront through Genius Checkout.

The connection

Ecwid and Genius Checkout

The Genius Checkout payment app sends an Ecwid order into a hosted payment flow and returns the final payment state to the store.

Merchants keep products, orders, and fulfillment in Ecwid while Genius Checkout manages the configured regional payment connection.

Available workflow

What the connection supports

  • Storefront payment option
  • Order and buyer detail handoff
  • Return to the Ecwid order-result page
  • Merchant-controlled gateway configuration

Implementation path

Connect without guessing at the gateway

Use the provider details issued for the merchant account. Test and live credentials must stay in their matching environments.

  1. 01

    Connect your merchant account

    Add the credentials supplied by your bank, gateway, or wallet provider to Genius Checkout. Test and live credentials stay separate.

  2. 02

    Connect the software

    Install or authorize the Genius Checkout integration for the platform. The connection keeps gateway credentials outside the store or CRM.

  3. 03

    Run a controlled test

    Use the approved test mode, verify the return flow and order status, then repeat the checklist in live mode with a permitted low-value transaction.

Before you start

What you need

Keep credentials out of email and screenshots. Enter them only inside the secure merchant configuration.

  • An Ecwid store eligible to install the app
  • A Genius Checkout merchant account
  • A configured and tested payment gateway

Merchant questions

Answers before you connect

Does Genius Checkout replace Ecwid checkout?

Ecwid creates the order and hands the payment to Genius Checkout. The integration sends the result back to Ecwid.

Which gateway should I select?

Select the gateway named in the merchant credentials supplied by your bank or provider.

Where do refunds start?

Available refund workflows depend on the app and gateway capability. Merchants can manage supported refunds from Genius Checkout.
