Why are my Shopify orders not updating to paid status?

Please note that for new orders to automatically reflect as paid after a successful PayFast payment, the payment capture method on Shopify needs to be set to 'Automatic'. This is done by doing the following:

  1. Log in to your Shopify store and navigate to Settings > Payments.

  2. At the top right, click Manage under Payment Capture.

  1. Ensure that 'Automatically capture payment for orders' is selected and click Save.


4. After saving, new orders that are paid with PayFast will automatically update to paid.
