The standard setup includes Bolt's fraud review. The 80M+ US shoppers in Bolt's one-click network can check out in one click, even on their first visit to your store.


Why BigCommerce brands choose Bolt
Bolt handles the checkout interface and payment collection. Your BigCommerce store keeps its cart, product catalog, shipping settings and order records.
Who Bolt for BigCommerce is for
BigCommerce merchants who want Bolt to host checkout instead of building their own.
Stores that want to keep BigCommerce's native checkout and add only Bolt's fraud protection, with the fraud-protection-only setup.
Teams that can edit their theme files. Bolt's scripts and button go in every template that shows the cart: in Cornerstone, the cart page, fast cart and mini cart.
Set up Bolt in six steps
1. Get your Bolt account and keys. Create a Bolt merchant account, and have BigCommerce Support enable Bolt Checkout on your store.
2. Install the Bolt app. In the BigCommerce app store, open the Bolt app and select Get This App > Install > Confirm.
3. Add Bolt's support user. In Settings > Users, create dev@boltapp.com with the Sales Manager role and the permissions the guide lists.
4. Enter your keys and pick a mode. In Store Setup > Payments > Online Payment Methods > Bolt > Setup, enter your API key, signing secret and publishable key. Then choose Full Bolt Checkout with Fraud Protection, or fraud protection only.
5. Add Bolt to your theme. Working in a copy of your theme, add Bolt's scripts and checkout button to each cart template.
6. Test, then go live. Run the BigCommerce test plan with Bolt, and check that each test order appears in both Bolt's Transactions and BigCommerce's Orders.
Implementation typically takes between a few days and a few weeks. Every step in detail: the BigCommerce setup guide.
