Inquiry Regarding Usage of Shopify Payment Gateway Across Multiple Stores

[DVK123]

Dear Shopify Community,

I hope this message finds you well. I am encountering a challenge and seek your valuable insight and assistance. Could you please advise if it is possible to use a single Shopify payment gateway across two distinct stores that I manage? Any guidance or shared experiences on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your time and support.

Warm regards,

Hi, @DVK123.

Welcome to the Shopify Community.

Could you advise where your store is based? The reason I ask is that Shopify Payments is only available to stores in certain countries/regions. 

In regard to your question, it is not possible to use a single Shopify Payment gateway across two distinct stores that you manage. Each Shopify store has its own separate payment settings and configurations. Therefore, you will need to set up and configure the payment gateway separately for each store.

Each store will also need to meet the following:

• Shopify Payments eligibility and bank account requirements.
•  Comply with all applicable laws, regulations, and the Shopify Payments terms and conditions for your country and industry.
• Your business type and products aren't prohibited.

Let us know if you have additional questions!

Hi, Victoria

Thank you for your swift response and the clarity provided on setting up Shopify Payment gateways for distinct stores.

To clarify, my business operates in the United States. I understand from your email that each store requires a separate payment gateway setup due to individual configurations and settings. My primary query revolves around whether the same business information, such as LLC and bank account details, can be utilized for setting up the payment gateways for two different stores.?

Your guidance on whether using identical business information for multiple stores is permissible and compliant with Shopify’s regulations and requirements would be greatly appreciated. I aim to ensure that all setups are in line with the applicable laws, terms, and conditions to avoid any discrepancies or issues down the line.

Looking forward to your response and further guidance on this matter.

Best Regards,

Thanks for your questions, @DVK123.

Yes, that's correct. Each store would need to have their own Shopify Payments account. In regard to your question, you can use the same information over multiple Shopify Payments accounts. You'll need to ensure that you're providing the supporting documents requested for the region that you're applying for.
