Essential information for online vape shops
This page discusses some essential topics for anyone who sells a regulated product, like electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS). You can learn more about Tasker Payment Gateways LLC on our About Us page.
Below we cover high-risk payment integrations for the top shopping carts like Shopify and WooCommerce- plus some insider tips on how to connect notoriously hard-to-integrate site builders like Weebly, Squarespace, and Wix.
We also discuss expanding your online smoke shop’s product offers to grow your profits. Lastly, we cover which site requirements are needed to sell vape items and how to get started accepting payments.
Wix, Weebly, Squarespace, WooCommerce, and Shopify payment alternatives for e-liquids
The vast majority of vape and e-liquid website owners can accept credit cards on their existing website without switching platforms or rebuilding their sites – if they have the right information and payment partners.
Some site platforms, like Wix or Squarespace, require special knowledge – and careful setup procedures- to be “vape friendly.”
Others, like Shopify, BigCommerce, Magento, or WordPress/WooCommerce, are a bit more straightforward.
Regardless of your platform, you must ensure that the payment gateway and the merchant account it connects to are both ENDS-friendly.
Without both pieces, your business is at risk of having its payment accounts shut down. You can read more about the difference between a payment gateway and a merchant account on our home page or our high-risk Authorize.Net page.
As an A+ rated Better Business Bureau accredited business, we will also assist you, one on one, with the integration of a payment gateway and a recommended merchant account into your shopping cart.

Expand your vape site’s products, and increase your profits
Our trusted, independent vape payment experts will assist you with merchant processing alternatives to Square, PayPal, Wix Payments, WooCommerce Payments, and Stripe.
Unlike “out of the box” payment gateways, the solutions our partners recommend are not only vape and nicotine friendly, but they also allow vape website owners to expand their product line. Many e-cig and e-juice businesses have expanded into online CBD, online pipes & glass, along with cigars and loose tobacco.
In addition to application, approval, and integration support, your dedicated representative’s goal will be to remain your personal human contact for as long as your vape site accepts credit cards. Our partners are available via text, email, or phone should you have any questions – even years down the road.
Are there payment processors for vape delivery services?
Yes, there are stable, experienced payment processors that allow vaporizer delivery businesses to accept credit cards for nicotine e-liquids, batteries, vaporizers, and vape pods online. These processors also allow businesses to accept payments for local deliveries, curbside pickup, and retail.
Since the expansion of the PACT act and its massive impact on the online ENDS industry, many vape website owners who previously shipped directly to consumers have instead turned their online ordering system into an “order online for pick-up or local delivery” service.
Demand for payment gateways and merchant accounts that allow the online ordering of “local pickup or delivery” ENDS has increased dramatically, and we have put a focus on helping vape website owners accept credit cards for vape delivery as simply as possible.
Vape business owners are mirroring the many thousands of restaurants and retail stores that have added curbside pickup and local delivery via a streamlined online ordering system combined with local delivery.
Often business owners that are looking to expand into local vape delivery are existing website owners struggling to navigate the onslaught of recent regulations. Others are existing retail stores simply looking to make shopping easier for their clients.
We offer payment processing options for online vape sales and local vape deliveries that work with all major shopping carts and site builders, including BigCommerce, Shopify, WooCommerce, Wix, Weebly, Prestashop, Squarespace, Craft CMS, Magento, OpenCart, and osCommerce.
Accepting credit cards online for vaporizers or e-juice? Marketing matters, as does age verification
To be approved for e-commerce credit card processing, you must be diligent in how you market your products and how you verify your customers’ age. Use common sense, and follow standard trademark best practices – most importantly, consult a qualified attorney with any questions.
You should not use images or product names that mirror other companies’ trademarks. You should not market in a way that could be considered marketing to children.
We have seen hundreds of sites that use familiar kids’ cereal images and slightly modified logos. That is asking for trouble. Again, if your product looks like it would be attractive to kids, you must change it. If your site does not use a tested, independent age verification service, you must implement one.
If you need a 3rd party age verification program, our clients have been happy with Agechecker.net. Feel free to check them out. 
Fast approval, no reserve, vape merchant accounts strike a balance
Many processors have long, challenging approval periods. Others rush through approvals so quickly that they often turn around and shut down payment processing shortly after approval.
To ensure that there are no adverse impacts on your cash flow, we recommend you work toward obtaining a “no reserve” processing gateway combo, even if you are a start-up.
We also recommend you read reviews and learn what our clients’ experiences have been by visiting sites like BBB and TrustPilot.
Payment gateway integration for ENDS businesses
Along with a tested, vetted, stable, vape-friendly merchant account recommendation, the best high-risk payment gateways allow the absolute vast majority of vape merchants to integrate with the software or cart they choose. Regardless of your cart’s internal or “preferred” processing or gateway restrictions, there are usually simple solutions.
Don’t switch website platforms or shopping carts without investigating all the integration options available.
Our dedicated new account specialists manage the entire process for our merchants from start to finish and make sure they are up and running, integrated, and selling with solutions that work for them. Our variety of solutions makes it easier than ever for vape and e-liquid merchants to integrate with hundreds of carts and software packages.
Tasker Payment Gateway’s preferred gateway providers and merchant account recommendations not only allow online vape merchants and do not consider them a prohibited category- they appreciate the business!
We have options to integrate with nearly every major shopping cart or development system out there, ASecureCart, Shopify, osCommerce, BigCommerce, CubeCart, Joomla, WordPress, Zen Cart, Magento, Shift4Shop, WooCommerce, PrestaShop, Squarespace, Wix, and dozens more. You name it, and we can probably help!
By providing added service and one on one dedicated “concierge setup support” for the vape market, we strive to service an industry that often feels shunned or under-served. Please contact us anytime; we are always happy to help answer questions.
We enjoy assisting start-ups as well as established merchants. If you are new to selling electronic cigarettes, puff bars, disposable ENDS, and nicotine online, you should read our continually updated “vape payment processor updates” post and seek qualified legal advice from an attorney as well. (We are not lawyers and cannot provide any legal advice.)
Let us help you set up a vape-friendly payment gateway for your ENDS website

Electronic cigarette sites and e-juice business owners will receive respectful, personalized, one on one concierge-level support.
Payment gateways for vape and e-liquid dropshippers
Tasker Payment Gateways LLC knows that finding the right vape-friendly payment gateway is hard if you dropship. Our dedicated, independent vape payment gateway experts will help you set up a high-risk payment gateway that works for you.
Vape sites using WooCommerce work best once it’s integrated with Authorize.Net while also using an e-cigarette-friendly merchant account on the back end. We also recommend using a tested plug-in with tons of installs and reviews, like the ones we recommend here.
Vape and e-liquid business owners using Magento, PrestaShop, or BigCommerce to accept credit or debit card payments can integrate with a vape-friendly Authorize.Net account and merchant account. This type of solution offers native integration and becomes vape-friendly when it’s all set up correctly. Contact us anytime for vape payment processing recommendations.
Shopify can be a terrific vape store site builder as it allows for Authorize.Net integrations and even recurring billing. All you need is to connect it to a high-risk-friendly merchant account on the back end.
You can learn more about our Shopify and Authorize.Net solutions here. We also wrote an article on Shopify Payments and the challenges some site owners face. You can learn about that subject here.
Squarespace, Weebly, and Wix are all compatible with both vape e-commerce and Authorize.Net. In order to accept payments safely and successfully, you need to know that a third-party solution is required. In our experience, we’ve found that Foxy.io is an excellent solution that makes all the parts work together.
