      Setting up Your Stripe Integration

      Connect your Zanda account to Stripe to process credit card payments seamlessly.

      Before you can begin using our integration with Stripe to process credit card payments through Zanda you will need to connect Zanda to a Stripe account. Stripe accounts are free to set up (you are only billed on a per-transaction basis) so it's worth doing, even if just as a backup payment method. If you don't already have a Stripe account you'll be able to quickly create one as part of the integration process.

      ⚠️ Important:

      Stripe will need to verify new accounts/businesses (see this article), if they are not eligible this means they will not be able to use this feature at all.

      Pricing/Fees

      When you connect your Stripe account to Zanda and process each payment, you will be charged:
      • A Zanda Connect Fee.
      • A Stripe Credit Card Processing Fee.

      Your fees will vary slightly depending on where you're from - and all of these fees are visible from your Stripe dashboard.
