Can specific payment methods be applied to certain products?

[AdriaticTime]

Hello,

I offer products, both expensive and inexpensive. For the expensive items, I'd like to accept only wire transfer, for the items, let's say less than $2,000, I'd like to accept Credit Card. Is it possible to apply specific payment types to specific products?

Hey @AdriaticTime!

Your question is a great one, and I would be more than happy to explain.

I understand that being able to accept specific payment methods for specific products would be beneficial for your business, but regrettably, it would not be possible to restrict the availability of payment methods in this way. With that being said, I've come up with a few different workarounds that you may want to consider.

                                            Possible workarounds

• Creating a draft order here within your admin with a manual payment method as the payment option. This payment method involves sending your customer an invoice, which you can create on behalf of your customers. Your customer would be sent an email, with the order details, and a link to the online check-out where they can pay by credit card. Alternatively, you would be able to accept payment manually (such as a bank transfer, cheque, etc.) from the order listing. Customers would then pay via an eligible method.
  
  
• Consider creating a Products Policy page as shown here which outlines this information on each product payment type.
