I would like to know which gateway is the best to use from Armenia. I tried couple of them but they replied that they are not operating in Armenia. (Checkout.com, Payoneer, 2Checkout by Verifone)
Topic summary
A merchant in Armenia is seeking payment gateway recommendations for their Shopify store after being rejected by several international providers (Checkout.com, Payoneer, 2Checkout by Verifone).
Suggested Solution:
- ArCa payment gateway was recommended as Armenia’s most popular option
- Supports 13+ Armenian banks and the Idram payment system
- Offers secure, encrypted transactions for credit/debit cards
- A video tutorial is available for Shopify integration
Key Clarification:
A third participant noted the discussion likely concerns international sales from Armenia, not domestic transactions. ArCa works well for selling within Armenia, but the original poster may need a gateway that processes international payments while being accessible to Armenian-based merchants.
Status: The core question about internationally-compatible payment gateways for Armenian sellers remains unresolved.

I think this thread is more related to selling internationally from Armenia. Meaning is there a payment provider that is supported in Armenia which works internationally. ArCa system would work great if you are selling in Armenia, but when you are located in Armenia and want to sell internationally that’s a different story.
