📌 Detailed Overview
Take payments directly on your directory with the reliability of Authorize.net. This add-on plugs into
Directorist’s checkout so business owners can pay for submissions, featured placements, and plan renewals in seconds.
Tokenization minimizes card exposure at your server, while Sandbox mode lets you test end-to-end before going live.
Designed for real-world operations, you’ll find logical settings, clear error handling, and concise transaction notes.
Pair it with Directorist pricing plans to offer one-time fees or time-boxed visibility boosts. For agencies and builders,
GPL terms mean you can deploy across client sites without recurring license friction.
