Setting up payments using Stripe

SaaSKits uses Stripe to process payments. You can use Stripe to accept credit card payments and Apple Pay.

SaaSKits uses Stripe's subscription, billing portal, and checkout features. You can read more about these features on Stripe's website.

To setup Stripe and start accepting payments, you need to setup a Stripe account.

For this guide, we will assume use Stripe in test mode. You can switch to live mode when you are ready to accept real payments.

Go to Stripe and create an account.

Once you have created your Stripe account, you need to get your API keys.

Go to the Stripe dashboard and click on Developers in the left sidebar.

Click on API keys.

You will see your Publishable key and Secret key. You will need these keys to connect your Stripe account to SaaSKits.

You need to add your Stripe API keys to your environment variables.
