The Stripe Payment Gateway
Stripe is a secure payment gateway that allows suppliers to accept payments directly through the platform. When a supplier uses Stripe, you can complete your order and payment in one step at checkout. Stripe handles the transaction securely, ensuring a smooth and safe payment process without the need to exchange payment details directly with the supplier.
While many suppliers on the platform use integrated Stripe for direct payment at checkout, some prefer to handle payments separately.
In these cases, you’ll see a ‘Submit’ button instead of ‘Pay and Submit’. Your order will still be sent through as normal, and the supplier will follow up with an invoice directly.
- To be able to submit an order using our Stripe payment gateway, you will first need to add products to your buy plan.
- Once you've added all your products, click on "submit order" in the top right hand corner of the release page and you will be presented with an order details pop-up.
- Tick off the check box to confirm you've read and agree to the terms and conditions
- Click the "pay and submit" button that has now appeared.
- You will be taken to the payments page to complete your order.
Submitting orders without Stripe checkout
"Some of our suppliers utilise our integrated Stripe payments directly through the platform. However, a few do not. In these cases, you’ll just see a 'Submit' button instead of Pay and Submit. The supplier will then issue an invoice directly for payment."
