WPForms

WPForms is one of the popular WordPress plugin available in the industry. And we are huge fans of it. There are millions of WordPress blogs using this plugin for creating their contact forms, newsletter signup forms, suggestion forms, etc. Thankfully, the plugin also offers a lite version.

The WPForms Lite can be purchased from the WordPress repository. And if you check the installations, you could see that 3 million blogs have installed this plugin!

For the basic contact form, the free version is excellent. Well, the premium version comes with more robust features and integrations with third-party applications. For connecting Stripe, you need the premium version of the plugin.

How To Connect Stripe With WordPress Forms?

You need the Pro or higher-level plan for Stripe integration. So, go to WPForms, purchase the plan. You can use your PayPal account or Credit Card for completing the purchase. And after that, log in to the WPForms account and download the premium version of the plugin.

Log in to your WordPress dashboard, go to add new plugins, and upload the premium version of WPForms. Plus, you could find a license key in your WPForms account dashboard. You need to activate the copy of your plugin with the valid license key.

Once you got activated the plugin, all the addons will be ready to act.

Under the addons section, you could find the Stripe addon. Install it. Once you got installed, it will get activated almost instantly.

Stripe Authentication

Now under the WPForms settings, you could see a new tab called Payments.

From there, you could configure the plugin. Choose a currency you want to use. If you are targeting worldwide customers, I’d recommend you USD. If you are targeting any country, choose that specific country’s language.

For example, let’s say that you are having a website and accepting donations only from India. In that case, you could pick the currency as INR.

Anyway, below that section, you can find a part for connecting Stripe with your website.

In the next step, you need to authenticate the account with your website.

Once you have activated the connection, you will be redirected back to your WordPress dashboard. If your connection is successful, you will see the sign.

Now, we have integrated Stripe with our website. We can start accepting payments through our forms by simply adding s Stripe field to it.

For that, you can create a new WPForms form or edit an existing form.

Thankfully, WPForms offers so many pre-made templates where you could import the available form templates to your form builder wizard.

There is also a donation form template available. If you’d like, you could import it or create a completely new one from scratch.

Here, you could see we have a form with multiple fields, dropdown, etc.

Also, don’t forget to add the Stripe field to the form. So, the Credit Card filed will be shown to all the website visitors and customers.

Go to the Payment settings and enable Stripe.
