## Introduction

Stripe is a financial infrastructure platform that helps businesses accept payments, send payouts, and manage their revenue globally. It supports a wide range of payment methods and currencies, making it easier for companies to scale and operate internationally.

## Configure Stripe

**Prerequisite(s)**\
There are no prerequisites to enable Stripe in your Chift App. However, the user must be a Stripe client in order to retrieve the necessary credentials.

## Connect Stripe

**Activation Process**\
There are two connection methods available depending on your use of Stripe:

To activate a connection with Stripe, the user must follow the appropriate flow based on their integration type:

1. **Via an App - OAuth2 Connection is required**\
   This method is used when the user is connecting through a Stripe Application.\
   In this case, you must create an app in your Stripe Developer dashboard.

   * **Client ID** – Found under `Settings → Extensions → Onboarding Options`.
   * **Client Secret** – This is your **Secret key**, available on the Developer Dashboard.
   * You must also configure the **redirect URI** correctly during app setup.

2. **Access Token via the Stripe dashboard**\
   When the integration is done via website without using an app, a direct connection using an **Access Token** (i.e., Secret key) is possible. This token is generated on the Developer interface.
