Stripe (Secure Credit Card) is a payment processor that is easy to use and to set up, fast, and has excellent support. It's available in many countries and allows you, as an Ozcart admin, to accept customer payments via various credit and debit cards.
Set up Stripe
- To set up Stripe with Ozcart, log in to your administration area and navigate to Configuration > Payment Plugins > Stripe. Click on the Activate icon and then on the Edit icon.
- At this point, you'll need to decide if you'd like to use the Test or Live keys. Set the Environment setting accordingly, then, navigate to Stripe's website and log in to your account.
- In your Stripe account, at the top right, click on Developers.
- If you'd like to use Test keys, make sure to switch the toggle at the top right to Test mode.
- Click on API Keys.
- Create and/or copy both the Publishable key and the Secret key.
- In your Ozcart admin area, if you want to test your integration, paste the test keys, otherwise, paste the live keys. Make sure to enter both live or both test keys.
- Set the Status to Enabled.
- Set the Order Status to the status you'd like an order to have after purchase. Authorized is the default choice.
- Set the Currency to your default one. This would also be the one that withdraws to your bank account. You will not see all the possible currencies until you enter your API keys.
- As for the Store Cards setting, we suggest not storing cards (Disabled) or else you may no longer be PCI compliant.
- Save.
- Then, navigate to your front-end to test Stripe to make sure that it shows up properly when checking out with a product.
