    This plugin provides a ton of features by integrating Stripe as a WooCommerce payment method that supports a ton of Stripe's payment methods and integrations. It also pulls your Stripe account dashboard data into your site admin area, and it has an onboarding experience that is easy enough for website clients...that is significant.I haven't seen any issues yet on two sites. I normally use a different Stripe Payment integration that I like, but this one is good enough to make me change. Hey, StellarWP! Have you thought about making this work with other ecommerce checkout options in WP? I bet you have. I'd love to have this without WooCommerce for many simple use cases when WC is way overkill. Maybe make a paid version with a light ecommerce checkout flow?

  • Allow google / apple pay as inline payment & save checkout form data

    One of the few payment methods that allow apple pay / google pay inline payment and yet save the checkout form data. unlike the other plugins that has mainly express checkout only that doest store the custom billing info filled in the form

  • I'm biased, but it's amazing

    This is the smoothest, easiest on the eyes, most robust ways to use Stripe in WooCommerce, hands down. The features, the UI, everything about it is a dream! p.s. full disclosure, I work at StellarWP and have been watching the development of this for a long time, I still will recommend this for a REALLY long time regardless.
