*Taking cards*

## Who takes your card payments

The card processor, the steps left to finish it, and its settings.

### How do you take payments?

Stripe, Square and PayPal connect here in one click, or with a test account first

The page opens with a one-line summary of how shoppers pay now, such as **Cards through Stripe, plus Bill later**, and anything that needs you, such as a card processor still in test mode. Beside the title, **Flex-Fees** opens your fees and **View your checkout** opens your cart in a new tab.

The first card asks one question. Before any card processor is in use it shows **Stripe**, **Square** and **PayPal** side by side, with **Another gateway** ( PRO ) across the row. Each card says what it gives you and which plan it needs.

**Connect Stripe**, **Connect Square** and **Connect PayPal** open the provider to sign in or sign up, then bring you back to this page with a note saying what happened. Under each sits **or connect a test account** ( **or connect a sandbox account** for Square and PayPal ), so you can try your checkout with test cards before any real money moves. On the free edition the first Connect asks you to accept the EasyCart Connect terms, and a note says **WP EasyCart fee: 2% of each sale on the Free plan** for Stripe, Square and PayPal payments, which PRO and Premium do not charge.

Once a card processor is in use, only its card shows, marked **In use**. A banner on it says plainly whether payments are **Live** ( real cards are charged ) or in **Test mode**, and **Settings** opens its settings in a side panel. **Change payment gateway** opens the other choices under it; the one in use keeps taking payments until you choose another, and changing asks first. PayPal stays in view below, because it works on its own or beside any card processor: connected, it shows its own live or sandbox banner, **Settings** and **Turn off**.

**Another gateway** is for every other card gateway WP EasyCart supports. **Use another gateway** shows **Which gateway?**, a searchable list with the ones usual in your store country first. **Set it up** opens that gateway’s settings; save and turn it on and it takes your card payments. Square is only offered where Square takes payments, and the card says so for other countries.

Every change made on this page is listed under **Recent changes here** at the foot, kept for 30 days, each with **Undo**.

For a step by step walkthrough, see [How to Take Your First Payment](https://docs.wpeasycart.com/docs/how-to-guides/how-to-take-your-first-payment/).

![Settings › Payments: Flex-Fees and View your checkout beside the title, and the summary of how shoppers pay now, with Stripe in test mode.](https://docs.wpeasycart.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/payments-setup-slots-607.jpg)

> **💡 Note:** Not taking cards yet? PayPal on its own, or bank transfer, is enough to start. Cards need a card processor: Stripe, Square or another gateway.

### Steps for your card processor

A short checklist that checks itself

Under the first card, **Steps for Stripe** ( or Square, or your gateway’s name ) lists what is left, with a count such as **2 of 3 done**. Each step is a live check with its fix beside it, marked **To do**, **Needs attention**, **Optional** or done, so it updates as you work.

**Stripe**: connect it ( a test account shows **Stripe is in test mode** with **Take live payments** ), **Apple Pay and Google Pay** with the switch **Offer Apple Pay and Google Pay at checkout** ( PRO ), and **Subscriptions**, which are ready as soon as Stripe is connected.

**Square** first asks **Will you sell subscriptions?** Subscriptions bill through Stripe and checkout takes cards through one processor, so a Yes offers **Take cards with Stripe instead**. A store that already has a subscription product finds it answered. Then: connect Square, **Your Square location** ( **Choose the location** ), **Do you keep your items in Square?** with **Import from Square**, and with PRO **Stock follows Square** ( counts come from Square every hour ), **Do you sell Square gift cards?** and Apple Pay and Google Pay. With Apple Pay on and Square live, the wallet step says when Apple Pay still needs something on your domain.

**Another gateway** asks the subscriptions question too, then its details ( **Enter them** ), its live or test mode where it has one, and whether it offers Apple Pay and Google Pay ( among the other gateways, only NMI does ).

![Steps for Stripe: Stripe is in test mode with Take live payments, Apple Pay and Google Pay on, and Subscriptions ready.](https://docs.wpeasycart.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/payments-setup-steps-607.jpg)

### A gateway’s settings

One side panel, one Save button, secrets hidden

**Settings**, **Manage** and the gateway buttons all open the same side panel. Its header repeats the state, such as **Connected** and **Test mode**, and a panel with three or more groups shows them as tabs. Stripe’s are **Payments**, **Currency and country**, **Payment methods**, **Checkout**, **Subscriptions** and **Notifications from Stripe**.

Changes wait for the one **Save** button at the foot, so you can change several things and save them together; closing with changes unsaved asks first. A gateway that is not on yet may offer **Save and turn on**, and where saving also makes it the gateway for its part of checkout, the panel says so beside the buttons.

**Secrets stay hidden.** Stripe’s secret keys and its **Signing secret** and **Test mode signing secret** show as dots, with a **Show** button beside each, so they are not on screen while someone looks over your shoulder. Password managers are told to leave those boxes alone.

Where a gateway needs its provider to send notifications back, the address to give the provider is shown with a **Copy** button. Without notifications, your store never hears about refunds, disputes and delayed payments made on the provider’s side.

When a payment fails, see [How to Fix Payment Failed and Gateway Errors](https://docs.wpeasycart.com/docs/how-to-guides/how-to-fix-payment-failed-and-gateway-errors/).

![Stripe’s settings on the Notifications from Stripe tab: the webhook address with Copy, and both signing secrets hidden with Show.](https://docs.wpeasycart.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/payments-setup-drawer-607.jpg)

> **💡 Note:** Where a gateway shows a webhook address, give it to the provider. Without it your store is never told that a payment succeeded, failed or was refunded; those events are recorded under [Settings › Advanced › Log entries](https://docs.wpeasycart.com/docs/administrative-console-guide/log-entries/).

*Every way to pay*

## Wallets, buttons, bank transfer and fees

Everything shoppers can pay with, paying offline, and fees by way to pay.

### What shoppers can pay with

Every way to pay in one list, with what carries it

One table lists every way a shopper can pay, what carries it under **Through**, and a switch or button to change it. Checkout takes cards through one card processor at a time; PayPal, Amazon Pay and bank transfer sit beside it. Switches save as you flip them and land in Recent changes with Undo.

**Cards** are on once a card processor is connected, and say **Needs a card processor** until then. **Apple Pay and Google Pay** come with Stripe, Square or NMI ( PRO ); with any other gateway the row says **Not with** that gateway. With Stripe, **Link** and Stripe’s local ways to pay follow: the buy now, pay later, bank and wallet methods shoppers in your country use most, such as Affirm, Klarna or iDEAL, each with its own switch ( PRO ). One in a currency Stripe does not take it in shows **Not in your currency**. **More through Stripe** opens Stripe’s Payment methods for the rest.

**PayPal** shows **Add PayPal** until it is connected, then a switch and **Manage**. **Venmo ( shoppers in the US )** and **Pay Later** ( US, UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain and Australia ) wait for PayPal Checkout buttons, then get switches of their own ( PRO ).

**Amazon Pay through Stripe ( PRO ).** With Stripe taking your cards, Amazon Pay is one switch, **Through Stripe**: no Amazon Pay account or keys to set up. Stripe offers it to businesses in the US, the UK and the euro countries ( Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Portugal and Spain ), charging in their own currency; elsewhere the table says so. Amazon Pay must also be turned on in your Stripe account. **or your own Amazon Pay account** keeps the separate Amazon Pay gateway, and on a store that does not take cards through Stripe that is the only way ( **Add Amazon Pay** ). With both on, shoppers would see Amazon Pay twice, and the page tells you to turn one off.

**Bank transfer**, shown under the name shoppers see ( **Pay by bank transfer** unless you rename it ), has a switch and **Wording and bank details**. A new store starts with it off. While it is on, orders paid this way wait as **Awaiting bank transfer** until you mark them paid.

Beside the list, **What your customer sees** draws the payment step from these choices: express buttons first, then the card form, other ways and bank transfer.

![What shoppers can pay with on a Stripe store: cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay, Link, Stripe’s pay later methods, PayPal, Amazon Pay through Stripe and bank transfer.](https://docs.wpeasycart.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/payments-setup-methods-607.jpg)

> **💡 Note:** Amazon Pay through Stripe needs no Amazon Pay keys. Keep your own Amazon Pay account only if you do not take cards through Stripe, or Amazon Pay is not offered through Stripe where you are.

### Bank transfer ( Bill later )

Take the order now, collect payment yourself, for everyone or chosen roles

Bank transfer is the offline way to pay, called Bill later in the settings: the order is placed and you collect payment yourself, by bank transfer, cheque or on pickup. It is free in every edition and can be on beside a card processor and PayPal. Turn it on with its switch in **What shoppers can pay with**.

**Wording and bank details** opens the **Bill later wording** panel. The **Bill later option name** is what shoppers pick at checkout and what the receipt shows, in the store language. The **Instructions for the shopper** appear at checkout and on the receipt when they choose it: where to send a cheque, pickup notes, how soon to pay.

**Bank details** take your account in the format your country uses. **Account type** starts on your store country’s and offers United Kingdom ( sort code and account number ), IBAN for Europe and other IBAN countries, Australia ( BSB and account number ), New Zealand, United States ( routing and account number ), Canada ( an Interac e-Transfer email or transit and account numbers ) and another country ( account number and SWIFT ). Only the fields for that type show, and a mistyped IBAN, BIC, sort code or BSB is refused before anything saves. The details are listed under your instructions at checkout, on the order confirmation, in invoice emails and on the pay link page, with the order number as the payment reference. Leave them empty to use your instructions alone.

**Offer it to** limits who sees it. Leave every role unticked and everyone can choose it. Tick roles, such as a wholesale role, and only customers signed in with one of them see it; **Guest checkout** covers shoppers who are not signed in. That is the tidy way to give trade accounts invoice terms without letting every retail shopper skip payment.

For a step by step walkthrough, see [How to Invoice Trade Customers on Net 30](https://docs.wpeasycart.com/docs/how-to-guides/how-to-invoice-trade-customers-on-net-30/).

![The Bill later wording panel: the option name Pay by bank transfer, the instructions, bank details for a US account ( example data ) and the roles it is offered to.](https://docs.wpeasycart.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/payments-setup-bill-later-605.jpg)

### Fees and discounts by way to pay

Your Flex-Fee rules, in words

This card lists your first three Flex-Fee rules in words, each with its amount and the ways to pay it is for, such as a card fee for card payments or a discount for bank transfer. Apple Pay and Google Pay count as card payments. **Add a Flex-Fee** or **Manage Flex-Fees** opens Settings › Flex-Fees ( PRO ). With no rules it says **None yet: every way to pay costs the shopper the same.**

![Fees and discounts by way to pay, with no rules yet and Add a Flex-Fee.](https://docs.wpeasycart.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/payments-setup-fees-607.jpg)

*Before you sell*

## Live or test, and going live

The check that matters before launch, and Stripe with your own keys.

### Live or test

See at a glance whether real money moves, and switch in one click

A gateway in test mode takes no real money. That is exactly what you want while building, and exactly what you must not leave behind.

The card processor in use says which it is on its own card: **Live** with **Real cards are charged.**, or **Test mode** in amber with **Test cards only, no real payments are taken.** Where both a live and a test account are connected, a **Live** / **Test** switch on the card moves between them. Where one is missing, the card offers **Connect your live account** or **Connect a test account** instead ( **Add live keys** or **Add test keys** for a gateway with keys ). Going live always asks first: Take live payments? Real cards are charged from now on.

Your other ways to pay with a test mode, such as PayPal or a hosted payment page, are listed under **Live or test**, each marked **Live**, **Test mode** or **Sandbox** with **Take live payments** or **Switch to test mode**. That card only shows when one is in use.

**Test-mode customers.** With Stripe live, a customer account switched to Stripe test mode ( Users › Customers, the customer’s **Tax & Preferences** ) checks out with your Stripe test account or test keys while everyone else pays live, so staff can try the real store with a test card. The Stripe card counts them, for example **2 customers pay in Stripe test mode**, with a link to Customers. Their orders carry a yellow **Test payment** flag, and refunding one runs in test mode too.

Place one real order end to end before you announce the store. A gateway that connects and takes test cards can still fail live for reasons the page cannot see, such as an account not yet approved for live processing.

> **⚠️ Careful:** Test mode takes no money. Check Before you go live says every way to pay takes live payments before you open the store, and place one real order to confirm. [Diagnostics](https://docs.wpeasycart.com/docs/administrative-console-guide/diagnostics/) warns about a gateway left in test mode too.

### Before you go live

Four checks under the preview of your payment step

Under **What your customer sees**, **Before you go live** ticks off what a store checks before real shoppers pay:

• your card processor is connected ( or, with none, that PayPal or bank transfer is on );
• **Every way to pay takes live payments**, or **Still in test mode:** with the names of the ones that are not;
• **An order has gone through your checkout**, or a nudge to place a test order and see checkout end to end;
• your terms, privacy and returns pages are published, or which of them to publish in Settings › Checkout.

The preview above it shows the payment step as shoppers get it: **Express checkout** buttons ( Apple Pay, Google Pay, Link, PayPal, Venmo, Pay Later, your own Amazon Pay account ), **Or pay with card**, **Other ways** such as Stripe’s local methods ( shown where the shopper qualifies ), a Square gift card box, and bank transfer. With no way to pay at all it says shoppers can’t place an order.

![What your customer sees, with Apple Pay, Google Pay and Link, the card form, Affirm and bank transfer, then the Before you go live checks.](https://docs.wpeasycart.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/payments-setup-golive-607.jpg)

### Stripe with your own API keys

For stores set up before Stripe Connect ( PRO )

**Stripe (API keys, v1)** is Stripe with keys from your own Stripe account instead of a connected account, with no WP EasyCart fee. It is for stores set up before Stripe Connect; new stores connect Stripe instead. Find it under **For some stores** › **Stripe with your own API keys**, where **Use API keys** opens its settings ( PRO ).

Its **API keys** tab keeps **Live keys** and **Test keys** side by side, each a **Publishable key** and a **Secret key**. The secret keys show as dots until you press **Show**. **Take payments with** chooses the pair the store uses, and a note above the keys says how payments will run before you save. Saving is refused when a key is in the wrong pair, half a pair is missing or the chosen pair is empty. Saving this form also makes it the gateway for card payments, and the panel says so.

![Stripe (API keys, v1) on the API keys tab: Take payments with, then the live and test keys, with each secret key hidden behind Show.](https://docs.wpeasycart.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/payments-setup-stripe-modes-607.jpg)

*More gateways*

## Every gateway WP EasyCart ships with

What only some stores use, the list view, and the full gateway table.

### For some stores, and every gateway

What only some stores use, folded away until they do

**For some stores** holds three things most stores never need, each folded with its state:

**A hosted payment page instead of PayPal**: Redsys, PayFast, Skrill, 2Checkout and others send shoppers to the provider’s own page to pay. Checkout shows one of these or PayPal, never both ( PRO ).
**Stripe with your own API keys**: see below.
**Gateways that no longer take payments**: Moneris USA, Dwolla and PayPal Advanced show only for a store still set to one, with a way to turn it off. A card processor that no longer takes payments says so on its card, and **Change payment gateway** opens by itself. A store that had the older direct Affirm connection is told **Affirm now goes through Stripe**.

**See every gateway**, under the first card, opens **Every gateway**: the full list, your country’s gateways first, with a search box ( by name or country, such as Moneris or Canada ) and the filters **Recommended**, **Card payments**, **Checkout buttons**, **Wallets** and **All**. Each gateway has the button that fits: **Connect** and **Try sandbox** for Square and PayPal, **Set up** for the rest. Choosing one opens its settings; it takes over its part of checkout once it is saved and turned on. Gateways that do not work for stores in your country are folded away, and on the free edition the PRO gateways carry a lock.

**Subscriptions need Stripe.** Subscription and membership products bill through Stripe only. While subscription products are for sale and Stripe does not take your cards, Worth a look at the top says **Your subscription products can’t be bought** with **Take cards with Stripe**, and shoppers see that subscriptions aren’t available.

For subscriptions step by step, see [How to Sell Subscriptions on WordPress](https://docs.wpeasycart.com/docs/how-to-guides/how-to-sell-subscriptions-on-wordpress/).

![For some stores, each folded with its state: a hosted payment page, Stripe with your own API keys, and gateways that no longer take payments.](https://docs.wpeasycart.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/payments-setup-more-607.jpg)

![Every gateway: the search box, the filters and the recommended gateways, each with Connect, Try sandbox or Set up.](https://docs.wpeasycart.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/payments-setup-more-catalog-607.jpg)

> **⚠️ Careful:** Selling subscriptions? Take your cards with Stripe. On any other card gateway, subscription products cannot be bought.

### Every payment setting, as a list

The same settings, one line per way to pay

Under **All settings** at the foot of the page, **Every payment setting, as a list** opens the settings as one list. It suits a store with several gateways to check at a glance.

**How customers pay** has one line for each way to pay: **Card payments**, **Checkout buttons**, **Wallets** and **Pay later**. Each line shows the gateway, its state ( **Connected · Live**, **Connected · Test mode**, **Selected, not set up**, **Off** ), the account and main choices behind it, **Manage**, and a **…** menu with **Take live payments** or **Switch to test mode**, **Connect live account** or **Connect a sandbox account**, **Reconnect** ( and **Renew access** for Square ), **Replace with another gateway**, **Turn off** or **Turn on**, and **Disconnect**. While any gateway is in test mode, a line above says so, with **Take live payments**.

**Add or change a gateway** is the same searchable list as Every gateway. Both views change the same settings.

![Every payment setting, as a list: How customers pay with the test-mode line, Stripe on card payments and Bill later on, then Add or change a gateway.](https://docs.wpeasycart.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/payments-setup-list-607.jpg)

Subscription products can only be bought while Stripe takes your card payments. Moneris USA, Dwolla, PayPal Advanced and the direct Affirm connection no longer take payments and are not listed; Affirm is offered through Stripe.
