The payment gateway isn't available in your store

If you encounter the message "isn't available in your store" when attempting to add a payment gateway to your online store, it may be due to a currency incompatibility issue. This error message typically indicates that the currency you have set for your store is not supported by the payment gateway you are trying to add.

To resolve this issue, you will need to change your store currency to a currency that is compatible with the payment gateway you want to use. Once you have updated your store currency, you should be able to successfully add the payment gateway and start accepting payments through your online store.

Changing your store's currency is a straightforward process.

  1. Head to the Settings β†’ General in your TapCommerce admin panel.

  2. Click on the "Standards and formats" settings.

  3. Next, from the dropdown, menu select the currency you want to set for your store.

Note that, if you've already received an order, you cannot change the store currency.
