Integrating, Configuring and Testing
The BlueTape Pay plugin is a configurable extension that can be added to your Magento or Magento CMS e-commerce site. Once integrated to your site, customers will be shown BlueTape payment options right within your checkout page, offering seamless Cards, ACH bank transfer, and BlueTape Trade Credit.
Before getting started, here are the prerequisites to install the BlueTape Pay plugin with Magento:
- Make sure Magento is updated to the latest version (2.4) and have a site ready with a demo/sandbox environment for testing purposes. Ideally the demo or sandbox testing site will be as similar as possible as your live site.
- Ensure that you have access to the Magento Admin Panel.
- Have a registered and approved BlueTape account. If one has yet to be made, you can create one on our BlueTape Sign Up page.
- Obtain the necessary API keys for your BlueTape account. These will be provided to you upon request from BlueTape.

Further Testing:
You can find a demo of the customer experience below.
You are welcome to replicate these steps in your own demo account. Add items to your cart, view cart, and check out. You can sign up as a new customer or check out as a guest and follow the prompts until payment is finalized. In your production account, you can do the same, but be mindful of using real funds for those test transactions.
