The Stripe Payment Gateway allows your customers to enter their payment details in your own checkout... providing a seamless checkout experience, and resulting in less abandoned shopping carts.

Stripe is a developer-friendly way to accept payments online and in mobile apps. They process billions of dollars a year for thousands of companies of all sizes.

Part 2 - Configure your Stripe Account

  1. Once you've clicked the "Activate" button in your Spiffy Store, you will be redirected to the Stripe site
  2. Log in to Stripe (if you haven't already done so) and you will be asked to grant permissions to Spiffy Stores so that we can use their API to configure your account to use Stripe in your Checkout.

About Stripe

Accepting credit card payments from a global audience typically requires a merchant account. The process of establishing a merchant account for each currency can be too difficult and costly for small businesses.

Pin Payments is Australia’s only all-in-one payment system, providing API-driven multi-currency payments without requiring you to establish a merchant account.

Each day the proceeds from your sales are transferred to your bank account, for charges made seven days prior. The transfers are automated and there is no settlement fee. Any applicable transaction fees will be automatically withheld from your sale proceeds.

To get started, you only need to provide an email and password. You can then connect your store to Pin Payments.

When you’re ready to start accepting live charges from your customers, just visit the account section of your Pin Payments dashboard and provide some basic details (e.g. your ABN and contact details).
