Easy Digital Downloads Authorize.net Payment Gateway Addon 2.1.0
Wordpress Plugins Easy Digital Downloads 4.8 (2.5K reviews)
Easy Digital Downloads is a WordPress plugin that people use to sell downloads such as ebooks, software, and music. The Authorize.net Payment Gateway Addon from the Easy Digital Downloads team adds a new payment method to that setup. With this extension installed on your EDD store, you can accept credit card payments directly through Authorize.net. Authorize.net acts as the middleman between your store and the banks, and it processes the transaction when a customer pays. The key point here is that the whole payment process happens inside your own site. Customers fill in their card details on your regular EDD checkout page instead of being sent to some external payment page. That keeps the entire purchase flow contained and makes it easier for you to manage orders. The addon is distributed by the same people who build Easy Digital Downloads, so it is designed to work with the plugin's normal structure.

On the checkout screen, the addon adds Authorize.net as a payment option. A customer can choose it and enter their credit card information, including the card number, expiry date, and security code. Once the customer places the order, the addon sends those details to Authorize.net for processing. The response comes back within the same session, so the store can show a successful purchase message without any page jumps. This is especially helpful for digital storefronts where a fast, clean checkout matters. Because the addon is built specifically for Easy Digital Downloads, it uses the extension points that EDD already provides. That means the payment method appears in the standard EDD order flow, and order records are handled the same way they would be with any other EDD payment gateway. No separate plugin setup is required beyond connecting your Authorize.net credentials. Customers never get bounced to a third-party payment page, and that is one of the main reasons store owners pick this addon.
The download you get here is the same .zip file that the original author publishes for this addon. No modified code has been introduced, and the package has not been repackaged or renamed. You upload the .zip through the WordPress Plugins page, activate it, and then set up your Authorize.net API credentials inside the EDD settings. Once activated, the addon shows up as a new gateway in the EDD payment settings. This addon requires no special hosting configuration beyond what Easy Digital Downloads itself needs. The version included is a full functional version, not a trial or an older build. The file itself is identical to what you would receive from the official EDD site. The addon is supplied by Woocrack.com as a distribution channel, but the content comes straight from the developers of Easy Digital Downloads. So you are working with the real thing. Installation takes only a minute if you have already set up Easy Digital Downloads on your site.
For a person running a digital store, keeping customers on the site during checkout is often a priority. When a buyer is moved to a separate payment portal, there is a greater chance they become confused or abandon the purchase. With this addon, the checkout stays within Easy Digital Downloads, and the customer pays without ever leaving the store. That simplicity comes from the way the extension is designed: it plugs directly into EDD's payment gateway system. There are no custom pages to build and no additional shopping cart to manage. The addon does what it is meant to do, and no more. Since this is an official extension from the Easy Digital Downloads team, store owners can trust that it will work alongside other EDD addons and future updates. The result is a payment setup that feels natural for both the site owner and the customer. Purchases are recorded in the normal EDD orders list, so there is nothing unfamiliar to learn.
