When managing an eCommerce store, offering all payment methods to all customers isn’t always ideal. Some payment methods may not be suitable for certain regions, customer groups, or order types, leading to risks like chargebacks, fraud, or customer confusion at checkout.

That’s where Magento 2 Payment Restriction extensions come in. Both Amasty and Mageplaza offer robust modules that allow store owners to conditionally restrict or display payment methods based on specific rules such as cart total, shipping method, product type, or store view.

By using these tools, online stores can streamline the checkout process and deliver more personalized experiences. Whether you want to limit cash on delivery to local areas or block certain gateways for wholesale customers, both plugins provide the flexibility needed to enforce smart payment logic.

Which option is best for you?

Both extensions are effective in controlling payment visibility, reducing checkout risks, and improving user experience. They support flexible conditions and multiple rule setups to match various business needs.
