How to Create an Online Form With Stripe

Are you looking to streamline your online payment forms? With FormSmarts Stripe integration, accepting credit cards and collecting fees has never been easier.

To get started, simply follow these steps.

Connect Stripe

To activate Stripe payments on your forms, you’ll need to add your Stripe API Key to FormSmarts. Don’t worry; this is a one-time setup unless you change your API Key.

Here’s how to do it:

  • In the API keys page of your Stripe Dashboard, create a Restricted Key (recommended) or a Secret Key, and copy it
  • In the Form Builder, open the Settings tab and click Connect Stripe under Payment Integration
  • Paste your key and click Connect

Can a form offer both PayPal and stripe options? In other words, can a form be built such that the user can choose whether they want to use PayPal or provide credit card info?

Corinne,
Right now a form can’t offer both PayPal and Stripe payment options, but we are considering adding support for this in the coming months. For now, you could have two versions of the same form (create one and make a copy), and provide a link to the other form at the top of the form for people who want to use the other payment method.
