RBC Royal Bank Shopify Payment Gateway Integration in the Caribbean

Shopify Payments isn't available in RBC Royal Bank's Caribbean markets, so we connect your RBC merchant account to your Shopify checkout — built via First Atlantic Commerce (PowerTranz) or Fygaro, RBC's own listed e-commerce partners — so you accept Visa and Mastercard payments online across RBC's 10-market network, spanning both the English- and Dutch-speaking Caribbean, settling into your own RBC account.

Straight Answer

What is RBC Royal Bank?

RBC Royal Bank — regionally branded RBC Caribbean — is the Caribbean banking arm of the Royal Bank of Canada, one of Canada's largest banks. RBC operates across 10 Caribbean markets, from Trinidad and Tobago and Barbados to Aruba, Curacao and the Cayman Islands — the largest network of any bank we connect to Shopify, spanning both the English- and Dutch-speaking Caribbean. RBC's own merchant-services materials list First Atlantic Commerce (PowerTranz) and Fygaro among its e-commerce partners. When we build an RBC integration, we connect it through whichever rail your merchant account uses, and settle card takings into your own RBC account — one of more than ten gateways we integrate.

The Caribbean Payments Problem

Why Caribbean Shopify Stores Can't Take Cards Out of the Box

The Wall You're Hitting

  • Shopify Payments doesn't work in RBC Royal Bank's Caribbean markets, so your Shopify store can't take cards out of the box.
  • You bank with RBC and want card takings landing in your own RBC account — not a foreign wallet you have to withdraw from.
  • RBC issues merchant credentials of its own, but wiring them into Shopify isn't a one-click app install.
  • You want customers paying by card on a checkout that looks and feels trusted, wherever in RBC's 10-market network your store sells.

How We Fix It With RBC Royal Bank

  • We connect your RBC Royal Bank merchant account to your Shopify checkout, building the integration through First Atlantic Commerce (PowerTranz) or Fygaro — the e-commerce partners RBC's own site lists.
  • Card takings settle into your own RBC business account — your bank, your account.
  • We confirm your RBC account and gateway credentials up front, then handle the connection and a real live-payment test end to end.
  • Your checkout stays branded and secure, so customers pay with confidence in any of the 10 markets RBC covers, from Trinidad to the Dutch Caribbean.
The Process

How We Add RBC Royal Bank to Your Shopify Store

  1. Scope your RBC setup

    Tell us you bank with (or want) RBC Royal Bank; we confirm your merchant account and how it fits your Shopify store, across any of RBC's 10 Caribbean markets.

  2. Confirm the rail & credentials

    RBC's own site lists First Atlantic Commerce (PowerTranz) and Fygaro as its e-commerce partners — we confirm which one your merchant account uses and connect it.

  3. Test a live payment

    We run a real card payment through checkout before go-live, so you see it work before your customers do.

  4. Go live & get paid

    Because we've already built this connection before, it's effectively plug-and-play for most RBC stores — we typically have it live on your Shopify site in about two days. Takings then settle into your own RBC account.

Which RBC?

Is RBC Royal Bank the same as RBC in Canada?

Related, and closer than most: RBC Royal Bank operates across the Caribbean as a direct regional arm of the Royal Bank of Canada — one of Canada's largest banks — not a separately branded subsidiary. In Canada, "RBC" overwhelmingly means online banking, mortgages, credit cards and RBC Direct Investing for Canadian retail and wealth-management customers. This page has nothing to do with that. It is specifically about RBC Royal Bank's Caribbean merchant e-commerce services — connecting a merchant account held in one of RBC's 10 Caribbean markets (Aruba, The Bahamas, Barbados, Bonaire, the Cayman Islands, Curacao, Sint Maarten, Saba, Trinidad and Tobago, and the Turks and Caicos Islands) to a Shopify store. If you're looking for RBC's Canadian online banking, this isn't the right page.

RBC Royal Bank integrations we build run on the same e-commerce partners as several Caribbean banks — see the PowerTranz (First Atlantic Commerce) Shopify gateway and the Fygaro Shopify integration, both listed among RBC's own e-commerce partners. We also connect the Republic Bank Shopify payment gateway, the First Citizens Shopify payment gateway, the Scotiabank Shopify payment gateway and the CIBC Caribbean Shopify gateway.

RBC Royal Bank Shopify Gateway FAQs

RBC Royal Bank — regionally branded RBC Caribbean — is the Caribbean banking arm of the Royal Bank of Canada, one of Canada's largest banks. It offers merchant e-commerce services to business clients across 10 Caribbean markets. It is a bank, not a payment vendor.

Related, and closer than most. RBC Royal Bank operates across the Caribbean as a direct regional arm of the Royal Bank of Canada, not a separately branded subsidiary. This page is specifically about RBC's Caribbean merchant e-commerce services, not RBC's Canadian online banking, mortgages or investment products.

Not out of the box — RBC has no native Shopify app. We build and test the connection between your RBC merchant account and your Shopify checkout, then run a real live payment before you go live.

RBC's own merchant-services materials list First Atlantic Commerce (PowerTranz) and Fygaro among its e-commerce partners. When we build the connection for your Shopify store, we wire it through whichever one your RBC merchant account uses.

Aruba, The Bahamas, Barbados, Bonaire, the Cayman Islands, Curacao, Sint Maarten, Saba, Trinidad and Tobago, and the Turks and Caicos Islands — 10 markets, the largest coverage of any bank gateway we connect, spanning both the English- and Dutch-speaking Caribbean. If you have an RBC merchant account in any of these, we can connect it to Shopify.

A customer pays at your Shopify checkout, the card is authorised through RBC's e-commerce partner, and the funds settle into your own RBC Royal Bank account, in your local currency.

Because we've already built this connection before, it's effectively plug-and-play for most RBC stores. With your RBC merchant account and gateway credentials ready, we typically have it live and tested on your Shopify site in about two days.

Yes — Fygaro is one of the e-commerce partners RBC's own site lists, and Fygaro's own site lists RBC as a bank partner too. If Fygaro's a better fit than a direct gateway integration for your store, we connect that to Shopify as well.

RBC has one of the most geographically diverse banking networks in the Caribbean, spanning both English- and Dutch-speaking markets across 10 countries and territories — the largest footprint of any bank we connect to Shopify.

No. Paperless Blueprint is an independent Shopify integrator. We are not a bank, and we are not partnered with, authorised by, endorsed by, or certified by RBC, RBC Royal Bank, or the Royal Bank of Canada. We connect the RBC merchant account and gateway credentials that you hold into your Shopify store.
