What payment gateways can ShopXray detect?

ShopXray's payment gateway detection identifies all payment methods configured on a Shopify store. This is valuable for understanding a competitor's checkout strategy and the payment options they offer to customers.

Detectable payment gateways include:

  • Shopify Payments (Stripe-powered)

  • PayPal

  • Shop Pay / Shop Pay Installments

  • Klarna

  • Afterpay / Clearpay

  • Sezzle

  • Affirm

  • Amazon Pay

  • Apple Pay

  • Google Pay

  • And other regional payment providers

Why payment gateway detection matters:

  • Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL): If competitors offer Klarna or Afterpay, they're reducing cart abandonment for higher-priced items. You may need to match this offering.

  • Market Localization: Payment methods reveal which markets a store targets. For example, iDEAL suggests the Netherlands, Bancontact suggests Belgium.

  • Conversion Optimization: Stores offering multiple payment options (credit card + PayPal + BNPL) typically see higher conversion rates. Understanding competitor payment stacks helps you optimize yours.

  • Trust Signals: Recognized payment brands like PayPal and Klarna act as trust badges that can influence purchase decisions.
