Stripe Credit Card Processing
Stripe is a processing system for mobile devices and online commerce. Stripe is unique in the way it validates charges. Your form will not be submitted until the credit card has been validated.
Logiforms has a wizard to help you get started with Stripe. It takes you to the Stripe site to log into your account or set up a new one, and then returns you to the Logiforms site where you can configure the settings and create rules.

In Settings, enter details about the payment and the customer:
Property | Details |

the 3 digit currency code you would like to use. For a full list of currencies supported, see this Guide. |
Pay by Bitcoin | defaults to False; select True if you accept Bitcoin payments; Stripe requires a US bank account |
Payment Button Label | the text you want customers to see on your checkout form |
Company Name |
your company name for the transaction |
Email Field |
the field that contains the email address of your customer; used as the default in the Stripe Payment Panel |

In "Field Mapping & Customer Options", enter the following values:

Click Finish when you're done working on your profile. You're returned to the Profiles screen.
Creating a Rule
If this integration profile is NOT meant to run on every submission, you need to create a rule for when it does run. For example, if you accept multiple payment types like cheques as well as credit cards, you need to create a rule that runs this profile when the customer pays by credit card. If there are no rules it will run for all submissions.
- On the Rules tab, click Add New Rule.
- In the Rule Name field, enter a meaningful name.
- In the Profile field, choose the name of the Stripe profile you have just created.
- Click Edit Rule and use the standard Logiforms Rule screen to select one or more fields and define the settings that determine when this action will be run.
Fields Added To Your Form
Your form will automatically have the following fields added to record the results from the Stripe transaction:
- Stripe Transaction Completed
- Stripe Test Mode
- Stripe Transaction ID
- Stripe Failure Message
- Stripe Failure Code
Testing the Integration
Test your form using the credit card numbers provided on the Stripe Testing documentation page.
The "Stripe Transaction Completed" field will be true for all approved submission. You can use this field and its value in your autoresponder, trigger and notification rules to send personalized emails after a successful transaction and run other actions on the customer record.
Debugging is always on for post processing profiles. Click "View Debugging Log" on the Profiles tab to see the log file of all transactions.
Editing Your Stripe Integration
You can change any of the details of this profile or its rules.
On the Profiles tab, choose the profile and click Edit Profile. Make any changes required and click Finish.
In a similar way, on the Rules tab, choose the rule and click Edit Rule. Make any changes required and click Save.
Deleting Your Stripe Integration
- On the Profiles tab, select your profile and click Delete Profile. The first confirmation window appears.
- Click Yes. The second confirmation window appears.
- Click Yes. The profile is deleted and the Profiles tab appears.
