Description
The addon Authorize.net connects the checkout of Restrict Content Pro to the Authorize.Net gateway, processing subscription payments with a credit card directly on your site without redirecting the subscriber to an external page. Designed for those who operate restricted content sites and memberships in the United States, it’s a natural choice for those who already maintain an account on Authorize.Net and want to keep the billing flow within their own domain.
