Background
There are two ways of setting up payments through Stripe, this one which is through a link on the invoice sent to the customer by email, or as a link in the email. The other option is to set up automatic payments.
Getting Started
Before using this method, make sure you have set up one of the two:
- A Stripe payment link on your invoice template
- A Stripe payment link in your invoice email template
If you haven't done this, put this code snippet in your invoice template or email template where you want the Stripe payment link:
<<link [Invoice.UniqueOnlinePaymentKey] [“Stripe Invoice Payment Link”]>>
Order
When creating an order, make sure to use "Invoice" as payment method.
Invoice/Email
In this example, when we invoice for the order, we have the Stripe link on the invoice.
When the customer clicks the link, they will be redirected to a payment page in which they enter their credit card information.
When they have successfully made the payment -
You will see the Stripe payment information with the following two transactions, the payment is fully made and the financial transactions are automatically recorded in Younium and automatically added to the payment and payout journals for period closing and reconciliation of the general ledger in your financial system.
You will also see the payments in your Stripe account.
