Stripe Payment Terminal No Administration

Overview

Our script allows you to have a quick & easy payment terminal for your clients to pay with major credit cards (Visa, Master Card, American Express, Discover) on your website (without leaving it) with stripe.com API, as well as paypal payments through paypal gateway. Installation and configuration of the script takes less than 5 minutes (however you do need to have SSL and Stripe account). There are 3 options to pay: 1) customers can *input price themselves* and type description, 2) you can turn on *pre-defined services* and customers will select service from dropdown and 3) customers can select *recurring services from dropdown*

 

Optionally PayPal Website Payments Standard can be enabled/disabled for both one time PayPal payments and recurring PayPal payments.

Server Requirements

1) PHP 5.0+

2) cURL and JSON php extensions must be enabled to accept payments (contact your hosting provider if unsure).

Installation

Fresh installation is pretty simple. 

1) Unzip the contents of the file which you downloaded from codecanyon.net.
You will find 2 folders: “stripe-payment-terminal” and “documentation”

2) open stripe-payment-terminal/includes/config.php and edit all needed variables (see explanation below)

3) Upload “stripe-payment-terminal” folder to your FTP server.
