We are pleased to announce that both Web-form-buddy and Web-store-buddy now support Stripe for web form card payments and Stripe for shopping cart card payments.
Stripe allows you to accept payments by credit card in a way that your customers will find very easy to use. To get started, you will first need to get a Stripe account. There are no setup fees, and the transaction charges are low.

Once you have your Stripe account, log in to your control panel, follow the simple instructions to “connect” your account, and you’re good to go!
