Charitable comes with Stripe Payments built into the platform. You don’t need to use any API keys or manually configure webhooks. Simply log in to your Stripe account to complete the connection.
Note: Before we start, be sure to install Charitable on your WordPress site. Since Stripe is built into Charitable, you don’t need to install any addons or extensions for basic Stripe functionality.
Here’s a table of contents to help you navigate this easily:
- Enabling The Stripe Payment Gateway
- Connecting Your Stripe Account
- Stripe Settings Inside Your Campaign
Enabling The Stripe Payment Gateway
In your WordPress admin panel, navigate to the Charitable » Settings » Payment Gateways tab. You’ll see the Stripe tab along with an option to ‘Enable Gateway’.
Before you enable this, you’ll also see an option to turn on ‘Test Mode’ below the list of gateways. We recommend using Test Mode when enabling a new gateway to ensure you’ve set up everything correctly before going live on your site.
Make sure to hit the ‘Save Changes’ button to activate test mode.
Now you can hit the ‘Enable Gateway’ button next to Stripe and you will be automatically taken to the Stripe Settings page.
Note: When you enable a gateway, a green ‘Gateway Settings’ button will appear. You can use this to access the Settings page on your own any time you need.
Connecting Your Stripe Account
अगले पृष्ठ पर, आप इस गेटवे के लिए एक लेबल जोड़ सकते हैं। यह आपके लिए ‘Stripe’ के साथ पूर्व-भरा हुआ है लेकिन यदि आपको आवश्यकता हो तो आप इसे बदल सकते हैं।
Note: There’s a 3% fee for every transaction along with Stripe charges if you’re using Charitable Lite. To remove the additional 3% charge, you’ll need to upgrade to Charitable Pro.
इसके नीचे, आपको क्रेडिट कार्ड फ़ील्ड प्रारूप दिखाई देगा। यह आपको यह तय करने देता है कि आप ग्राहकों से उनकी क्रेडिट कार्ड जानकारी कैसे दर्ज करवाना चाहते हैं। यहां 2 विकल्प हैं:
- एकल फ़ील्ड एक फ़ील्ड में कार्ड नंबर, समाप्ति तिथि, ज़िप कोड और CVC फ़ील्ड मांगता है।
- एकाधिक फ़ील्ड प्रत्येक आइटम के लिए एक अलग फ़ील्ड बनाता है।
यह फ्रंट एंड पर कैसा दिखेगा:
After you choose the Credit Card Fields format, click on the ‘Connect with Stripe’ button.
यह आपको स्ट्राइप पृष्ठ पर ले जाएगा जहां आप अपने खाते में लॉग इन कर सकते हैं। यदि आपके पास खाता नहीं है, तो आप अपना ईमेल पता दर्ज कर सकते हैं और आप स्ट्राइप खाता साइन अप करने में सक्षम होंगे।
एक बार जब आप अपने स्ट्राइप खाते में लॉग इन हो जाते हैं, तो बाईं ओर ‘WP Charitable पर लौटें’ लिंक का उपयोग करें। यह आपको अपने वर्डप्रेस डैशबोर्ड पर वापस ले जाएगा और आप देखेंगे कि कनेक्शन स्थिति या तो ‘टेस्ट मोड में कनेक्टेड’ या ‘लाइव मोड में कनेक्टेड’ कहनी चाहिए, जो इस बात पर निर्भर करता है कि आपने पहले कौन सा मोड चुना था।
If you ever need to remove this Stripe account, you can use the ‘Disconnect this account’ link here.
Now you’re all set to start accepting donations using the Stripe payment gateway.
