Changing payment method name at checkout

When you add several online payment methods, they often receive the same "Credit or debit card" name by default. Creating specific payment method names will help you to quickly learn from the order details, how the order has been paid for, and filter orders by these payment methods.

To edit the name of the payment method:

1. From your Ecwid admin, go to Payment.
2. Find the payment method you want to change.
3. Click Actions, then click Edit.
4. In the Appearance options tab, enter the payment method name in the Payment method name at the checkout field.
5. Save the changes.

Sorting payment methods at checkout

To encourage customers to pay with a certain payment method, you can put that method in the first place in the list of payment methods. Thus, it will be selected by default at the checkout.

To set the order in which payment methods appear at checkout:

1. From your Ecwid admin, go to Payment.
2. Click Actions → Sort next to any payment method.
3. Drag and drop payment methods to put them in the desired order.
