Order Gateways

On the Gateways table, grab the left-most part of each row and reorder your existing gateways in the order in which they will be used on the

  • currencies,

  • destinations,

  • checkouts,

  • and portals

The order in which gateways are listed does not affect how locations and terminals only use gateways. Locations and terminals also ignore whether the gateway is 'active' and the sources selected.

Locations and terminals use the gateway selected in the location and terminal forms, respectively.
