Bold Cashier is a powerful checkout solution that offers additional payment methods, extensive customization, a long list of integrations, and much more straight out of the box.
Bold Cashier uses its own processes to charge and capture your customer's orders. This allows it to be integrated with many of our other apps (including Bold Subscriptions), along with an entire suite of third-party applications.
This article is relevant to Bold Cashier on Shopify. If your store is using Bold Checkout, please visit the articles relevant for BigCommerce or commercetools.
Alert
Bold Cashier is currently unavailable for installation on Shopify due to Shopify's re-evaluation and newly created restrictions for third-party checkouts.
If you installed Bold Cashier prior to January 20th, 2020, it will continue to function as expected until it's been uninstalled from your store. Bold Cashier cannot be reinstalled.
Bold Cashier is otherwise also available for BigCommerce and commercetools.
Alert
If you installed Bold Cashier prior to May 1st, 2021, you will continue to pay a 0.5% transaction fee.
Bold Cashier is free to download, but does charge a 1.0% transaction fee on all orders processed through Bold Cashier. Transactions may also be subject to fees charged by the payment gateway.
How Bold Cashier charges the transaction fee is dependant on which payment gateway you are currently using.
Pricing while using Stripe
With Stripe, Bold Cashier's transaction fee is taken off of your customer's order prior to the payment being deposited into your bank account.
Stripe's payouts contain the transaction fees that were deducted from your customer's purchases made through the Cashier checkout.
Bold Cashier will send you a summary of the previous month's fees on the 1st of each month.
Pricing while not using Stripe
With other payment gateways, Bold Cashier requires you to add a credit card in order to be charged Bold Cashier's transaction fee. Other payment gateways do not support the same fee structure that Stripe offers.
Because of this, you will be charged on the 1st of each month (at approximately 10:00am CST) after your store's revenue's been deposited.
Once you've set Bold Cashier up and are ready to start selling, you will need to enable the app. This can either be fully enabled or partially enabled (via development mode).
