Set Up The Verifone Hosted Cart On Your Shopify Store (NZ)

Learn how to integrate the Verifone Hosted Cart with Shopify to accept eCommerce transactions in New Zealand. This guide includes critical NZ-specific setup advice to complement Verifone's installation instructions.

What You'll Need

Install the Plugin

Follow Verifone’s official documentation to install and configure the Shopify plugin. We recommend using the manual setup method. While installing the plugin, make sure to follow the NZ-specific tips below.

👉 Go to Verifone’s Shopify Manual Setup Guide

While Verifone provides an Automatic Setup option for Shopify, we recommend following the manual setup process instead. This gives you more control over your configuration.

Tips for Installing the Plugin

Follow these steps before you begin the plugin installation process on Shopify.

Set your Verifone account region to New Zealand

In the plugin, set your account region to New Zealand.

Do not select any other region. The wrong region can cause configuration issues.

Use the correct Organisation ID

Go to Administration > Account Setup > Organisation, Company and Sites in Verifone Central.

  • Select your Organisation (not a Site or Account ID)

  • Copy the Organisation ID exactly as shown

  • Paste it into your Shopify plugin settings

Avoid IDs with "Account" or "Site" in the name. Choose the one linked to your eCommerce Payment Provider Contract.

Generate your Secure Card Capture Key

    To process ecommerce transactions you must generate a Secure Card Capture Key. You only need to generate the key, you don’t need to paste it into the plugin.

    • Log in to your Verifone Central account

    • Go to Administration > Organisation, Company and Sites

    • Select the organisation associated with your eCommerce Payment Provider Contract

    • Scroll down to the Secure Card Capture section at the bottom of the page

    • Click Create new public key

    This key must be created at the Account level, not Site level.

    Enable 3DS (3D Secure)

    NZ uses 3D Secure (3DS) instead of Verifone's global Fraud Protect.

    • Enable 3DS in your plugin settings

    • Enter your 3DS Contract ID (see Verifone Cloud documentation for where to find this)

    Select “Sale” as the transaction type

    In Card Payment Settings, choose Sale.

    Avoid other options unless advised by our support team. These can cause failed or misrouted payments in NZ.

    Limited support for APMs

    Alternative Payment Methods (APMs), like PayPal, are mentioned in global documentation but are not currently supported in NZ. Apple Pay or Google Pay may work on some setups, but requires additional wallet configuration and may not display correctly in iframe environments.

     Contact our support team if you're considering enabling Apple Pay or Google Pay.

    Test credentials

    • If you enable Test Mode, you must also enter valid test credentials.

    • Contact our support team if you need assistance with this

    Payment capture settings

    In Shopify:
    • Go to Settings > Payments

    • Under Payment capture, click Manage

    • Select Automatically capture payment for orders

    • Click Save
