Overview

Authorize.Net on Salesforce

A custom payment gateway for Salesforce B2B Commerce checkout. We have shipped it across 7 client projects and 34 build tasks.

The value is what happens after the charge: matching payments to records, handling refunds, and keeping finance reconciled without manual work.

We build a hardened webhook pipeline: a public Apex REST endpoint on a Salesforce Site, signature verification on every event, and flows that turn raw Authorize.Net events into clean, reconciled records.

Every Authorize.Net build is delivered by a senior Salesforce architect on a fixed price, tested end to end in a sandbox, deployed to your org, and backed by 30 days of hypercare. You own the result: documented, source-controlled, and free of black-box middleware lock-in.

Why connect

Why connect Authorize.Net to Salesforce

What your team actually gets out of the integration.

Everything in one place

Authorize.Net data lives in Salesforce, so your team stops switching between apps and works from a single record.

Faster, cleaner reconciliation

Payments match to the right record automatically, so finance closes faster with fewer disputes.

No manual data entry

Automation replaces copy and paste between Authorize.Net and Salesforce, cutting errors and admin time.

Built by senior architects

A production-grade build with governance, testing, and support, not a brittle one-off script.

Live in weeks, at a fixed price

A senior architect scopes and ships your Authorize.Net integration on a fixed price, usually in two to six weeks.

Owned by you

Documented, deployed to your own org, and yours to keep. No black-box middleware and no lock-in.

FAQ

Authorize.Net Salesforce integration FAQs

How do I connect Authorize.Net to Salesforce?

We authenticate Authorize.Net using secure named credentials, map the fields to your Payment, build the automation, test it in a sandbox, and go live. Most builds run two to six weeks depending on scope.

Is the Authorize.Net Salesforce integration two-way?

We build it to match your process, one-way or two-way, depending on what you need.

How do you stop duplicate or failed payments?

Every event is signature-verified and idempotent, so duplicates are ignored, and each one is logged to an error object so nothing fails silently.

How long does a Authorize.Net Salesforce integration take?

Typically two to six weeks, depending on how many objects and edge cases are involved. We scope it up front and quote a fixed price.

How much does a Authorize.Net Salesforce integration cost?

Every engagement starts with a free discovery call and a fixed-price estimate, so there are no hourly surprises.

Do you keep our existing data and history?

Yes. We preserve your existing records and reconcile them during setup, so your reporting works from day one.

Which Salesforce objects does the Authorize.Net integration use?

Typically the Payment plus related Accounts, and any custom objects your process needs. We map every field during setup.

Can you build it in our sandbox first?

Yes, always. We build and test in a sandbox, then deploy to production via change sets or a CI pipeline, so there is no risk to your live org.
