To Integrate Stripe with Your Courses

Once your Stripe account is connected, you will see it under Known Stripe Accounts.

Now you’re ready to set up a paid course!

 

Notes:

  • Stripe fees: Creating an account is free. Stripe charges a small transaction fee of 2.9% + 30¢ per successful card charge- a small price to pay for easy payment processing. There are no setup fees, monthly fees, or hidden fees.
  • Business website: Stripe will require a website URL to complete your business information and activate your account. You can share your website or your social media profile (business profiles are preferred). You will want a permanent URL. It is not recommended to use the registration page link of your course, because it changes with each course you create.
  • Disconnecting your Stripe account: You can revoke CourseNinja access from your Stripe account at any time from the Settings > Authorized applications area of your Stripe Dashboard.
