I want to integrate my business as a payment gateway with Shopify

Topic summary

A B2B company building a payment gateway for influencers and brands asks how to be added as a Shopify payment provider (i.e., be selectable at checkout as a payment option). “Payment provider/gateway” refers to services that process customer payments during checkout; B2B means business-to-business.

A respondent (not affiliated with Shopify) opines that Shopify typically partners with large, established payment processors handling very high transaction volumes. Given existing providers are major global companies, being listed as an official provider may be unlikely for a new or smaller brand.

Recommended next step: contact Shopify directly with detailed information about the service to assess feasibility. Other integration routes might exist, but no specifics are offered.

Outcome and status: no concrete technical guidance or decisions were provided. The question remains open with the key action being to reach out to Shopify.

This is just an opinion, but unless you have a large established brand as a payment provider Shopify is probably not going to be interested in offering it as an option. If you look at the currently available payment providers they are all major worldwide companies doing millions, or billions in transactions annually. As is Shopify, so they want to collaborate with other major brands and influencers. I do not work for Shopify, so like I said this is just my opinion.

It may be possible to integrate with Shopify in some way, but not sure on how that would be done. If you are serious about this idea, it would be best to contact Shopify directly with information about the services you offer and see what their response is. Good luck!
