Hey @tnrogers – Hey thanks for your question! It would be super sweet if it could run both but unfortunately it doesn’t. It would be difficult for us to both support our plugin and WooCommerce at the same time.
To answer your question about which Authorize system our plugin uses: It uses AIM – it’s fully supported moving forward and integrates nicely: https://developer.authorize.net/api/upgrade_guide/
I hope this helps answer your questions! Please let me know if you have anymore.
Hi Devon,
Thanks for your reply.
Can I use two different Authroize.net plugins?
I need to have an Authorize.net plugin to run the WooCommerce store. With that, I was thinking of using CIM. And then your plugin uses AIM. See https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/authorize-net-extension-comparison

That shouldn’t be a problem @tnrogers. They should run fine alongside each other.
That’s great.
My client has an existing website and store which continues to run while I develop a new website on a separate domain name. When everything is ready to go, I will transfer all files to a new server account, and connect it to their existing URL.
Will I be able to get the donation plugin working in advance on the development site, and then have it work on the new URL when we go live?
I’m suggesting they get the plus bundle, which is $25/month, but paid annually. So that’s $300 paid to get the site set up. Would we have to pay that again a few days later as the ultimate URL is different than what we started with?

Hey @tnrogers – You can definitely get it up and running on the DEV site first. Just don’t activate your license until you get to the LIVE site. The Plus bundle is definitely the best way to go. Please redirect any other pre-sale questions here: https://givewp.com/contact-us/ as WP.org doesn’t allow questions about premium products.
The clients website collects donations for a sister org. There will be two forms, one for each org. Is that OK to do, or will it get complicated?
Hi @tnrogers — if you have two websites and both are collecting donations via PayPal Standard, you’ll just enter the PayPal email address in both sites and it will process just fine. If you need to see IN PAYPAL which site the donation comes from, I’d suggest making your Form Names unique to the website so you can more easily distinguish.
Thanks!
Thanks Matt,
The two forms will be at the same website, collecting donations for two different nonprofit organizations.
I’m probably going to be using the Authorize.net plugin.
Tom
If they are two different organizations, then you’ll have different gateway credentials for each account (I’m assuming). That will be no problem at all.
Thanks!
The question is if one WooCommerce website can offer two different donation forms (one each for two different orgs). The proceeds would have to be clearly marked as from one org or the other. The money would all be processed via one Authorize.net account.
To me, it’s like offering two different products, and the SKU numbers are different.
Tom
You can do that as well with Give and Authorize.net. You can put the same credentials in both sites, and there is a “Statement Descriptor” that is generated from your website that can help distinguish as well. It’s harder to do that with PayPal Standard — I didn’t realize you were using Authorize.net.
If you have more specific questions about our Authorize.net add-on, I’d encourage you to reach out to us here: https://givewp.com/contact-us
Thanks!
