What is a payment gateway?

A payment gateway is an e-commerce service that processes credit card payments for you so that you are able to take payments from cards, online. 

 

Which payment gateways do you support?

Currently, we only support Stripe. Although, we are planning to add more payment gateways in the future, Stripe is one of the worlds most popular payment gateways.

Information on Stripe and their fees are located here.

 

How to connect my Stripe account?

Firstly, head over to Stripe, or create a new account through pressing connect to stripe in your BookAssist voucher system.

You can find this section in the store settings under payment gateways. Click connect payment gateway in the top right to begin the process. 

 

Stripe will then ask you for a number of business details and may require some basic verification, this is typically a 5-10 minute process. 

You will be taken to a page that looks like the image below, just follow the set up wizard and when you're done you should see your payment gateway in the payment gateway list.
