Payment integrations often come with unnecessary complexity, especially in no-code environments like Bubble. Between API configurations, compliance concerns, and security protocols, developers can spend countless hours just trying to make transactions work.
The Authorize.Net Payments Plugin for Bubble.io eliminates that complexity. Designed specifically for the Bubble ecosystem, this plugin enables secure, seamless payment processing without custom code or middleware.
What the Plugin Offers
This plugin acts as a native connector between Bubble applications and Authorize.Net’s trusted payment infrastructure. It includes all the key functionality required to handle customer billing in a secure and scalable way.
Developers can create and store customer profiles, manage credit card information, process payments instantly or on demand, verify API credentials before going live, securely retrieve or delete customer data, and choose between using app-level API keys or allowing users to connect their own Authorize.Net credentials.
The flexibility to toggle between centralized and decentralized payment flows makes the plugin especially valuable for marketplaces, SaaS products, and any app requiring dynamic payment ownership.
Features You’ll Love
The plugin is equipped with actions that mirror essential operations in a traditional payment system but are optimized for the Bubble environment. Each action is accessible via Bubble workflows and requires no code to implement.
Verify Connection: Validates Authorize.Net credentials to ensure the integration is properly configured.
Create Customer Profile: Generates a secure, reusable customer profile that can be linked with one or more payment methods.
Add a Payment Profile: Associates a credit card or payment method with a customer for future transactions or subscriptions.
Charge: Processes a payment using either saved payment data or newly provided card details.
Retrieve Customer Profile: Provides access to stored customer information and payment methods for backend use or customer support.
Delete Customer Profile: Removes stored customer data and associated payment profiles in response to account closure or compliance requests.
Dual Credential Mode: Offers the flexibility to use the app owner’s API credentials or let end users plug in their own. This feature is ideal for platforms supporting multiple vendors or service providers.
How It Compares to Other Solutions
Many developers turn to custom API integrations to build Authorize.Net workflows manually. While technically viable, this route often involves extensive documentation review, PCI compliance handling, and testing of complex authentication schemes. Errors are difficult to trace, and maintenance becomes an ongoing burden.
Other no-code payment plugins tend to limit the user to their own credentials, offer minimal customer data management, or fail to support verification and deletion features. Some lack proper documentation or fail under production loads.
In contrast, this plugin offers Bubble-native integration, full customer profile lifecycle management, credential flexibility, and built-in validation for production readiness.
It bridges the gap between ease of use and enterprise-level payment control, making it a practical option for teams that require reliability without complexity.

Common Use Cases

Marketplaces
Sellers can connect their own Authorize.Net credentials, allowing direct payments to their accounts. This setup supports multi-vendor business models with minimal friction.
SaaS Applications
Customer profiles can be created during onboarding, with card details saved for monthly billing. Recurring charges happen automatically without requiring user intervention each cycle.
E-Commerce Platforms
Buyers can store their cards for future purchases, enabling one-click checkout and reducing cart abandonment rates.
Subscription Services
You can combine saved payment methods with workflow logic to automate subscription plans, free trials, and renewals, entirely inside Bubble.
Why Use Authorize.Net?
While Stripe remains the default in many no-code tools, Authorize.Net maintains a strong presence in finance, healthcare, government, and legacy industries where compliance, reliability, and merchant stability are non-negotiable.
Many organizations already have Authorize.Net merchant accounts and prefer to continue using them. This plugin gives Bubble developers the ability to integrate Authorize.Net without limitations, allowing compatibility with long-standing business processes.
