Obtaining Your Stripe Credentials for your website

For us to link your Stripe account to your website, you just need to send us your Publishable Key and Secret Key (Live not Test). These can be found by logging into your Stripe account at www.stripe.com.

• First go to your Stripe Dashboard (https://dashboard.stripe.com/dashboard)
• Make sure the toggle switch for test/live mode that you’ll see at the top of your screen is not selected. We don’t want Test mode activated.
• Click on ‘Developers’ at the bottom-left of your screen.
• To the right of the ‘Overview’ tab, select ‘API keys’

What we need

1. We will need your Publishable Key which can be copied and pasted from this screen into an email. Please don’t take screenshots.
2. We also need your Secret Key to complete the connection. If you already have a secret key setup it won’t be possible to copy this – you will need to create a new key by clicking on the ‘Create secret key’ button. After doing this you just have one opportunity to copy it before it is made secret. If you fail to copy it though don’t worry you can simply repeat the process to create another Secret Key
