Configuring Stripe For Payments

Memb.rs provides builtin functionality for using Stripe for secure credit and debit card payments, streamlining your payment process compared to traditional offline methods such as BACS and cheques.

You can find details of Stripe costs and fees below, these may vary depending on the service you choose or the location of the person making the payment:

Stripe Charges & Costs

Memb.rs stores only the relevant customer identification required to be able to authenticate payments, which also allows for retrieval of saved card details if a member has paid by Stripe previously.

Configuring Your Stripe Account

Adding a Stripe account to Memb.rs is typically a simple process, the following section will outline the main points.

Usually it is simpler if you provide us with Developer access to your Stripe account, this access can be revoked by you after completion.

Please follow this guide from Stripe to give access:

https://support.stripe.com/questions/invite-team-members-or-developers-to-access-your-stripe-account

Configure Stripe Yourself

Within your Stripe dashboard go to the Developers section

There are two sections, API Keys and Webhooks, that are required to be configured.

Within API keys there should be the following:

• Publishable key
• Secret key

The Secret key may need to be created, this is only viewable once so it will need to be recorded somewhere securely.

A webhook endpoint needs to be created by using the add endpoint that points to:

https://api.memb.rs/<your-client-name>/inbound/payment/stripe

Where the <your-client-name> is the name given to your client in Memb.rs.

Please contact [e-mail] for this.
