Authorize.net plans, side by side
Every published tier in ascending order of price, with the number of features each one lists. An absence here means the record does not itemise it, not that the tier lacks it.

| Gateway Only | $25/month | 6 | +$0/month, 4 more features |
| Gateway + eCheck | $25/month | 7 | +$0/month, 6 more features |
What each tier adds
The set difference between each tier's feature list and the one beneath it. Where a tier lists nothing new, the vendor has either stopped repeating the inherited list or the tier raises limits rather than adding capability, the record does not distinguish the two, so this page does not either.

Before you pay for Authorize.net
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: 3 tiers between $25/month and $25/month, with the jump itemised above. With no free tier on record, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to compare Authorize.net against the tools that do have one before committing.
Authorize.net runs on not recorded. The full record is on the Authorize.net review, and the rest of the category is under best e-commerce tools.

- Does Authorize.net have a free plan?
- Not on the record we hold: Authorize.net is listed as subscription. Whether a free trial is offered is not something this record captures, so check the vendor's site.
- What is the difference between All-in-One and Gateway Only on Authorize.net?
- Gateway Only costs $25/month against $25/month, and adds payment gateway only, for existing merchant account holders, transaction rate 10¢ per transaction + 10¢ daily batch fee, multiple payment types supported.
- Is the Gateway + eCheck plan on Authorize.net worth it?
- That depends entirely on whether you need what it adds, which on the published record is payment gateway with echeck support, echeck rate 0.75% per transaction, credit card rate 10¢ per transaction + 10¢ daily batch fee, echeck minimum monthly fee $10. It costs $25/month against $25/month for All-in-One. Softwr has not used either tier, so this page can tell you what changes, not whether it is worth the difference to you.

- 7 of the 8 e-commerce tools listed alongside Authorize.net have a free tier: UnoPIM, Instacart, Temu, Vinted, Shein.
- What am I actually paying for with Authorize.net?
- The record we hold does not itemise what each tier includes beyond the plan names and prices. The Authorize.net review carries whatever feature detail is available.
- Does Authorize.net charge per user?
- The record carries a price and a billing period for each of its 3 tiers, but not the unit that price is charged in. Per-seat and flat-rate billing look identical in this data, so check the vendor's page before budgeting for a team.
- Are these Authorize.net prices current?
- They are what the catalogue entry holds, refreshed when the entry is. Vendors change pricing without notice and nobody at Softwr re-verifies each tier by hand, so treat this as a structured summary and the vendor's own pricing page as the authority.
