Are you looking to integrate a payment platform for your business? If you're looking to accept payments online, there are plenty of options available. However, not every option is right for every business. Stripe is a popular online payment service that offers a simple way to accept credit card payments through your website or app. It is one of the easiest ways to accept payments online and best of all, our PK team can assist with the integration.
Stripe Payments
Stripe Payments is a complete payment platform. It offers payments for any business, ranging from ecommerce stores to brick & mortar to subscription businesses, etc. It is a full stack service for all of your payment needs across all channels. You have the ability to accept payments from any device – allowing customers to use a phone, tablet, laptop, desktop computer, or even a TV. Payments also supports over 135 currencies and has a unified API for cards, wallets, bank debits, etc.
We all love a product or service that makes life more convenient, right? Stripe Payments is exactly that. It provides flexibility for both businesses and customers, guaranteeing everyone an easy, stress-free process. By allowing you to accept payments from any device and scaling globally, you can provide your customers the convenience they’re looking for, which in return improves conversion.
Stripe Checkout
Stripe Checkout is the hosted payments page that is prebuilt and customizable. It is optimized to increase conversion, reduce time and errors, provide easy accessibility, scale globally, and conform to your brand. Stripe achieves this by:
having a team of engineers and designers continuously working on it
integrating features such as a third-party autofill, payment method reuse, etc.
providing a responsive checkout that also has Apple Pay and Google Pay
showing the correct language and preferred payment methods depending on location
offering a seamless, customizable checkout product to match your brand
As mentioned above, this integration provides a variety of features that all contribute to reaching your business’s full potential for converting visitors. It provides every customer a seamless experience and minimizes the potential for cart abandonment. And with Stripe’s ability to scale globally, this opens up the opportunity to reach all customers and adjust to the native language and preferred payment methods, eliminating the possibility of missing a potential conversion.
Stripe Elements
Elements is Stripe’s library of UI (user interface) tools that allows you to design and customize your website’s payment form to match the look and feel of your brand. This product uses CSS-level styling and is already optimized for conversion with built-in features such as error messages, input masking, autofill, and more. With this single integration, you can reach more customers with the option of 20 payment methods, all of which are easily managed from the Dashboard. Elements features include:
automatic input formatting as customers type
complete UI translations to match your customer’s preferred language
responsive design to fit seamlessly on any screen size
custom styling rules so you can match the look and feel of your site
We love this product because it goes the extra mile to give businesses the flexibility they need to maximize conversion. Elements is intended to provide businesses flexibility while still minimizing user error, increasing successful payments, and optimizing revenue. Similar to the Payments and Checkout integrations mentioned above, Stripe once again strives for increasing conversion. By using features such as built-in payment tools and using Link to autofill customer’s payment and shipping information, it has been proven to increase conversion rates.
