Why are customers unable to complete orders with test mode enabled?

Topic summary

Merchant reports customers reach checkout but don’t complete orders; third‑party gateway test modes (Adyen, Authorize.net) fail even though Shopify’s Bogus Gateway works.

Payments and eligibility:

  • Staff explains third‑party gateways are supported by their own teams; merchant should contact Adyen/Authorize.net directly. Shopify Payments is region‑specific and not available in Morocco. Using a UK setup requires meeting UK requirements.
  • For card payments without a PayPal account, enable PayPal “guest checkout” (region‑dependent) by linking a credit card in PayPal Business and turning on the feature; otherwise consider other Morocco‑supported gateways from Shopify’s list.

Currency/payout:

  • Store currency (customer checkout currency) can be changed in Settings > Store details. UK payout currency must remain GBP; only some regions support differing payout currencies.

Checkout abandonment:

  • Abandoned checkouts only appear if the customer entered information at checkout.

Site performance/domain:

  • Slow loading traced to duplicate A records on the root domain; remove the non‑Shopify A record via Namecheap. DNS changes may take up to 48 hours. Screenshots provided.

Billing card declined:

  • Ensure the card meets Shopify billing requirements and accepts charges in the store’s billing currency; otherwise contact the bank.

Shopify Payments verification:

  • ID submissions were rejected; underage/using another person’s ID is not acceptable. Must contact Live Support via the Help Center chat (screenshot provided) for account‑specific help.
