Hi There!

What country are you located in?

Hey there, @Alaa_Almayah

Bo here from Shopify Support!

That is a really great question. As the country where your business operates is not supported by Shopify Payments, you should review the list of other payment gateways that Shopify supports, you can select your country from the list to see the payment gateways that are available to your country specifically.

All the Best,

Bo

thanks for your email,
i found the list of countries in middle east that iraq should be one of
them but my country (iraq) is not one of them,
note that iraq is very promising country and i can make many many sales so
please help me activate payments so my customers can purchase my products
successfully

You can create a Manual Payment method and use Cash on Delivery so that your customers can checkout and pay you, Tap & Payfort (the two leading players in the MENA region for that are unavailable for Iraq).

what should i write on additional details box and payment instructions box.
can you please explain more about this payment option.

Just keep them Empty, this is how it will look:

Moving forward when a customer places an order he will be shown this option which tells him that he will pay in Cash on Delivery.

so the customer will not pay until he receives his products right?
and how he will pay then?

Try searching for NassPay. it might be the solution. also if you just write " Payments Gateways in Iraq" it should give you some other options.

@Al That will depend on you, you should have local couriers that handle this like Aramex for example. As for NassPay and other online gateways are not supported by Shopify so he won’t be able to use them unless the gateways pass Shopify’s certification and makes them available.

40+ Payment Providers: Choose from leading payment gateways in your region, like PayPal, Stripe, and PagSeguro. Accept secure payments via major credit/debit cards and digital wallets from customers around the world.

I think that Wix is a good Shopify alternative with more than 40 Payment Providers from leading payment gateways in your region like PayPal, Stripe, and PagSeguro. It accepts secure payments via major credit/debit cards and digital wallets from customers around the world. Additionally, Wix is a drag and drop website creator with more than 700 free appealing templates are available for you to choose from. Those eye-catching templates cover different aspects and are easily modified for selling purposes. It sounds attractive ?

I have read this comparision Wix vs Shopify, very helpful. Highly recommend.
