Accept.js support
You can now enable Accept.js support for improved security in credit card payment processing! When Accept.js is used, customer credit card information is no longer sent directly through your server and instead is handled directly by Authorize.Net, meeting the lower level PCI SAQ A-EP compliance level. The customer doesn’t see a difference in the checkout process, but payment data is more secure behind the scenes.
You can learn more about Accept.js here.
Support for automatic refunds & voids
Shop employees can now process refunds for an order paid for with Authorize.Net AIM directly from within WooCommerce – no more logging into your merchant account to process refunds! Speed up your store management by creating full or partial refunds from the “Edit Order” screen and sending the transaction automatically to Authorize.Net by clicking “Refund via Credit Card”.
If the transaction has not been captured or settled, a transaction void will be performed automatically instead to cancel the order.
Authorize.Net Emulation for other processors
It’s possible to use the WooCommerce Authorize.Net AIM extension with other gateways that support Authorize.Net emulation (such as eProcessing Network). You’ll need to enable the Authorize.Net Emulator gateway to use Authorize.Net emulation.

Full Support for Authorize.Net eChecks
Customers with US bank accounts can checkout using their bank account information for a checking or savings account. To use this feature, you must have an active Authorize.Net eCheck account.

Capture Charges directly from WooCommerce
Some users choose to set the payment gateway to only authorize charges rather than authorize & capture them. However, this requires the user to then log into the payment gateway admin to capture charges. This extension allows you to optionally capture previously authorized transactions directly from the WooCommerce Edit Order screen rather than logging into your Authorize.Net control panel to do so. Simply edit the order, select the “Capture Charge” action, and charges will be captured through Authorize.Net.
