Activate online payments and set up your Stripe account to receive online payments with daily payouts. Stripe is easy, fast, and convenient to use. And here’s how to set it up.
What is Stripe
Stripe is an online payment platform that will make it possible for you and your restaurant, bar, café, pub, or the like to receive online payments from your guests.
Stripe accepts numerous card-payment methods (as well as wallet and bank payments), which will make it easier for you to charge your guests online while keeping the booking and payment process as easy and satisfactory for your guests (and you) as possible. And you only pay the standard Stripe transaction fee.

How to set up your Stripe account
In order to take online payments for takeaway orders as well as charge prepayment and/or no-shows from your guest, you will need to activate online payment.
Go to Apps → Online Payment and then click “Activate”.
This will take you to the Stripe setup page, from where you can ‘Start Stripe setup’. By clicking this link, you’ll be directed to a step-by-step Stripe account setup process.
The process will take approx. 10 minutes to complete, but you can stop the setup process and resume later if you need to.
You will be guided through the entire process, so it’s straightforward and easy to get started. And once your account has been set up, you can start receiving online payments right away.
