Prerequisites for secondary connection
Before setting up the process, we need to make sure these things are in place.
- Confirm that your payment provider is supported by Shopify for subscription billing.
- Check supported payment providers here
- Ensure that you are using the same payment provider account as on your legacy platform (Stripe, PayPal Express, etc.)
Step-by-Step guide to connect secondary payment method
Follow these steps to complete the process.
- Open the Loop app on your store from your Shopify admin.
- Navigate to Settings > Migrate payment methods
- Select the payment provider that you are trying to connect in the dropdown and then click on the Connect button.
This will redirect you to the OAuth authentication page for the selected provider. Ensure that you correct the same account that was linked to your legacy / external platform subscription app.
Verify connection
Follow these steps to complete the process.
- Navigate to Shopify > Settings > Payments and you will find the PSP connected right below your primary PSP as shown in the screenshot.
- Alternatively, the Settings > Migrate payment methods page in the Loop app will also show the same information.
