The Stripe WooCommerce Extension renders a Stripe-hosted interface to customers that is embedded onto your site via an iframe
. While it may look like a customer is entering their card details on your site, that information is actually being added to an interface that is hosted directly on the Stripe servers.
As a result of this feature, your site does not handle customer card information when using the Stripe WooCommerce Extension. Instead, it is all handled directly by Stripe.
Additionally:
- Merchants who use the Stripe WooCommerce Extension can use the pre-filled Self-Assessment Questionnaire A in their dashboard.
- Stripe’s is certified to PCI Service Provider Level 1.Â
