To accept payments with Stripe you must have a Stripe account and set up a Restricted API Key and share it with us. This will allow for payments to securely go into your Stripe account. Visit Stripe for more info and to set up an account.

Once you have a your Stripe account be sure to set up payment methods you wish to accept. This can be found on Stripe by going to Settings->Payment Methods. Not all payments are turned on by default such as Buy Now Pay Later options (Affirm, Klarna, Afterpay).

We also recommend that you sign up for their Stripe Radar service to help protect against fraud and chargebacks.
