Set Stripe Checkout as my primary payment gateway

The Stripe Checkout payment gateway lets you collect payments through an external payment page hosted by Stripe. Unlike the standard Stripe payment gateway, Stripe Checkout is SCA compliant. Use this payment gateway if you serve customers in the European Economic Area (EEA) where electronic payments are required to be SCA compliant.

   Direct Capture

   This field allows you to choose if funds are directly captured at the time of sale:

   • Yes: when this option is selected, funds will be captured when buyers confirm the order, i.e. money will be collected at the time of sale.
   • No: when this option is selected, authorization is granted at the time of sale, but funds will only be captured when the order is shipped.

   Collect Billing Address

   This field lets you choose whether you want Stripe to collect the billing address at checkout.

   Transaction Description

   This is the description of the goods purchased as it will appear in a transaction. The variable, [SITE], will display the domain name of your site and the variable, [ORDER_NUMBER] will display the number of the order in the transaction description.

   You can use [SITE_NAME] in place of [SITE]. [SITE_NAME] displays the site name as specified in the Website Pages Editor. This variable is useful if your site URL is particularly long a exceeds the length limit of the Transaction Description field.
