The activation process is a bit more involved as it\u2019s the process where you connect Stripe to your bank account. [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]Then again, you want to take your time with all that serious business, so that\u2019s fine, plus <strong>you can sort of try out Stripe before you even activate the account<\/strong>. You won\u2019t be able to process any charges, but you will be able to connect it with plugins using the test APIs.<br \/>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]<strong>Signing up for Stripe is free<\/strong>. The way it works is that for every successful transaction using Stripe, a small fee is charged on top of the amount. The fee isn\u2019t too much \u2013 a few percentage points plus a small, fixed part \u2013 and it\u2019s in line with industry standards. <strong>You can set up recurring billing with Stripe, and even use it for in-store processing \u2013 although you will have to buy the appropriate card readers<\/strong>. [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]When used on a website \u2013 the way you\u2019re probably looking to use it \u2013 Stripe will not redirect your visitors to its website to make the payment. <strong>All of the payments are handled on your site, and Stripe will require your website to use an SSL certificate as a security measure<\/strong>. [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]<strong>The major downside with Stripe is that it offers support to a limited number of counties<\/strong>. Using it outside of the EU, North America, and some counties in Southeast Asia and the Pacific is not possible. But if your store is registered in one of the eligible countries, you are free to add Stripe to WordPress.
