Shopify payment providers

Topic summary

A dropshipping store owner from Egypt is experiencing persistent payment processing errors when customers attempt to make purchases. The error message states “there was an issue processing your payment method.”

Payment Gateway Issues:

  • Previously used Payomob as the payment gateway
  • Contacted Payomob, who stated they don’t support dropshipping
  • Attempted alternative providers including Paymob, Fawaterak, and others, but none worked successfully

Recommended Solution:
A community member suggests this may be a Shopify account-level issue rather than a payment provider problem. They recommend:

  • Contacting Shopify support directly through the Help Center
  • Using the AI chatbox to describe the issue
  • Requesting to chat with a support advisor for further assistance

The issue remains unresolved and requires direct intervention from Shopify’s support team to diagnose the underlying account or configuration problem.
