Introduction
Gravity Forms and Stripe allows you to quickly and easily implement credit card payments with WordPress. With the Stripe Add-On you can capture one time credit card payments or setup recurring payment subscriptions.
If you are familiar with our other Gravity Forms Add-Ons, or even if you』re not, you』ll be right at home getting started with the Stripe Add-On!
Pre-Requisites
Gravity Forms v2.4+
WordPress v3.8+
SSL Certificate Installed and Configured
Download and install the add-on
A Stripe account
Because of the secure nature of capturing credit card information, you will be required to purchase and install an SSL certificate on your web site if you have not already done so. You will also need to configure your WordPress site to work properly with SSL.
Contact your web host if you need assistance purchasing and configuring an SSL certificate.
If you need assistance configuring your WordPress site to work with SSL, we recommend the WordPress HTTPS (SSL) Plugin which you can find here: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-https/
Setup Stripe
Learn how to setup the Stripe Add-On in our Setting Up the Stripe Add-On article.

Setup Stripe Feeds
Now that you have configured the Stripe Add-On to work with your Stripe account, and you have a form configured and ready to interact with Stripe, it』s time to bring it all together by configuring the form to integrate with Stripe. Just like all of Gravity Forms Add-Ons, this integration is done by creating a feed.

Viewing Sales Results
After creating a feed and making your first sale, you can view the results on the Sales Results page. Review Viewing Sales Results article for more information.
About Payment Collection Methods
The Stripe Add-On offers multiple methods to collect payment information. Each method offers a different split of responsibilities between your form and Stripe as pertains to the collection and storage of payment related information. See this help article for more information on the payment collection methods offered.
Stripe Subscription Cancellations
When setting up a Stripe Subscription, please keep in mind that the only way to currently cancel a subscription is via the WordPress Admin or the Stripe admin. You can cancel an existing subscription by viewing the entry associated with the subscription and choosing the cancel option for the Stripe subscription.
Stripe Add-On Hooks
The Stripe Add-On provides hooks that can be used to modify the default functionality or extend it. For more information, review the Stripe Add-On Hooks.
Add-On Framework Hooks
Because the Stripe Add-On is built using the Add-On Framework it also inherits any hooks available in the framework methods it uses such as:
gform_short_slug_field_value for changing a field value before it is passed to Stripe.
