Connect your Stripe account

Link your Stripe account to PayFacile in a few clicks to accept card payments. Create a new Stripe account or connect an existing one via OAuth.

Accept card payments: 5 minutes to set up

To collect card payments from your customers (Visa, Mastercard, American Express), you first need to connect Stripe. It’s a one-time operation that takes 5 minutes.

PayFacile uses Stripe as its payment gateway. You keep full control over your Stripe account, your funds, and your data. No API keys to copy-paste—the connection is automatic via OAuth.

Step 1: Go to payment settings

Navigate to Settings → Payment from your PayFacile dashboard. You will see the Stripe section with a Connect Stripe button.

Step 2: Authorize the OAuth connection

Click Connect Stripe. You are redirected to Stripe to authorize PayFacile to access your account.

  • If you already have a Stripe account: sign in and authorize access. Your history and settings remain unchanged.
  • If you don’t have an account: Stripe will guide you through creating one during the process. Have your ID and bank details ready.

Step 3: Verify your connection status

After authorization, you return to PayFacile. The status changes to Connected with your Stripe account name displayed.

If Stripe requests additional verification (identity, address, business activity), a banner will notify you. Complete these steps directly in your Stripe dashboard at dashboard.stripe.com.

Expected result

Once Stripe is connected:

  1. Your customers see a secure payment form on your sales pages.
  2. Payments are processed by Stripe and arrive in your bank account per Stripe’s payout schedule (typically 7 days for new accounts, then 2 business days).
  3. PayFacile receives confirmation and updates the order automatically.

Stripe fees: approximately 1.5% + €0.25 per transaction for European cards. These fees are charged by Stripe, on top of PayFacile fees based on your plan (from 2% on Starter to 0% on Platinum).

FAQ

Can I use my existing Stripe account?
Yes. If you already have a Stripe account, simply sign in with your credentials during the OAuth redirect. Your Stripe history and settings remain unchanged.
Are there Stripe fees on top of PayFacile fees?
Yes. Stripe charges approximately 1.5% + €0.25 per transaction for European cards. These are separate from PayFacile transaction fees, which range from 2% on Starter to 0% on Platinum.
Can I disconnect and reconnect Stripe?
Yes. You can disconnect Stripe from Settings → Payment and reconnect at any time. Past orders remain linked to your Stripe account.
