How to use Stripe Checkout Step 1: Enable Checkout in the Dashboard To begin using Checkout, log into the Stripe Dashboard and navigate to the Checkout settings (Settings > Stripe apps > CHECKOUT). From here you can enable the client integration and customize the look and feel of your checkout page. Step 2: Create a Product Navigate to the “Products” section in the Dashboard and create a new product (New > One-time purchase products). When you create a product in the Dashboard, Stripe creates a Price ID for it. You will need to use this Price ID in shortcode to create a button. Step 3: Add a Webhook Endpoint Go to “Developers > Webhooks > Add endpoint” and insert the URL shown in the plugin settings. Select this event – “checkout.session.completed” and click “Add endpoint”. This is where Stripe will send notification after a checkout payment is successful.
