Easy Digital Downloads Authorize.net Payment Gateway 2.1.0
Description
Easy Digital Downloads Authorize.net Payment Gateway is a WordPress plugin add-on for Easy Digital Downloads that lets you accept credit cards directly on your digital storefront. It connects your store to your Authorize.net account so customers can pay during the checkout flow.
