Setup and configuration of the Stripe extension

The Stripe extension is a versatile way to accept payments on your WooCommerce site. However, in order for it to work properly, it needs to be set up and configured.

First, let’s make sure you have what’s required to ensure a smooth installation:

• Your business must be based in one of Stripe’s supported countries.
• PHP, WordPress, and WooCommerce must be on recent versions.
• Your site has an SSL certificate and is accessible over HTTPS.

The first step to getting started with the Stripe extension is to install it on your WooCommerce site.

You can learn more about how to install the Stripe extension directly from your administrator dashboard in our installation documentation.

Once you’ve installed the Stripe extension, you’ll want to go through and make sure that it is set up in a way that will allow your store to accept live payments from customers and securely communicate with Stripe’s systems.

To ensure that the Stripe extension is set up properly, you will want to connect to a Stripe account and set up webhooks.

Once the Stripe extension plugin is set up, you can start taking payments!

However, there are also a number of options available that can help customize the shopper experience and drive increased sales, such as:

• Adjusting your Stripe plugin settings
• Enabling additional payment methods
• Configuring express checkouts
