Do I need an SSL certificate?
Yes. Braintree only processes card payments from pages served over HTTPS. Most hosts include a free SSL certificate, so this is usually a one-time setting on your hosting panel.
Can customers save their cards?
Yes, when you enable the Saved Cards setting. Logged-in customers see a "Save this card securely with Braintree for future orders" checkbox; if they tick it, the card is stored in the Braintree vault, not on your server, and offered as a saved payment method on their next order. Guests and customers who do not opt in are never vaulted.
Can I test before going live?
Yes. Switch RestroPress to Test Mode and the extension talks to the Braintree sandbox with the credentials you entered. Use Braintree sandbox test cards, check the order and transaction ID, then turn Test Mode off and enter your production keys.
Can I refund an order from RestroPress?
No. The extension does not send refund or void requests. Refund the transaction in your Braintree Control Panel; the Braintree transaction ID is stored on the RestroPress order so you can find it quickly, and a voided or settlement-declined webhook will mark the order failed.
Which currencies are supported?
The extension charges the Braintree merchant account you select with Merchant Account ID (or your default account), and that account has one settlement currency. Set your RestroPress store currency to the same currency. For several currencies you would need separate Braintree merchant accounts and a separate store currency per site.
Does it support PayPal, Apple Pay or Google Pay through Braintree?
No. This extension covers card payments through Braintree Hosted Fields only. PayPal, Venmo, Apple Pay and Google Pay are not added, even if they are enabled in your Braintree account.
Is Braintree available in my country?
Braintree is available to businesses in the US, Canada, Australia, much of Europe and several Asia-Pacific markets. Visit braintreepayments.com for the current list. If Braintree does not cover you, RestroPress also offers Mollie, Stripe and other free gateways.
