Introduction
WP Stripe is a plugin designed to handle single payments using Stripe, a refreshing and accessible alternative to PayPal. This is particularly awesome for charities, non-profit organizations and other websites accepting smaller payments where transaction fees are unnecessarily high (no setup or monthly fees either).
Will it work on my Theme?
Yes! WP-Stripe features an inline form or pop-up modal so that it can fit any theme. There’s also a simple option to turn off the default CSS so that you can customize it yourself.
Features
This plugin allows you to do a number of things (see screenshots too):
- Add a Donation/Payment Form via Shortcode or Template insert
- Add a Widget showing Recent Donations/Payments (using Gravatars)
- View latest Donations/Payments in a Widget (donors can opt-in/opt-out).
- View latest Donations/Payments in a WP-Admin (makes use of custom post types to store transactions without sensitive data, see FAQ for more information).
Using SSL (Important)
In order to process transactions in a secure manner, you need to purchase an SSL Certificate. This way consumers can purchase/donate with confidence. There are multiple plugins for then enforcing that SSL be used on your page, here’s one.
