Payment gateways

Connect the gateway you will use to take card and online payments. One is enough to get started.

Before you start

Go to Settings › Payments › Payment gateways. Only the Admin role can connect gateways. Only the gateways that operate in your business’s country are listed.

Connect Stripe

Stripe is shown as the recommended option and connects without copying keys.

  1. Open the Stripe card

    Under Add a gateway click Connect on Stripe.
  2. Choose how to connect

    Use Connect in one click if you don’t have an account: Stripe asks for your details on its own page. If you already have one, choose I already have a Stripe account and sign in.
  3. Finish the review

    While Stripe reviews your account you will see Stripe is reviewing your account. Use Complete details or See what’s missing until Charges enabled and Payouts enabled appear.

Connect another gateway with your keys

The other gateways available in your country connect by pasting the keys from your account with that gateway.

  1. Open the gateway

    Under Add a gateway click Set up on the one you want to use.
  2. Paste your keys

    Copy the keys the form asks for from your gateway dashboard and paste them.
  3. Choose where customers pay

    Under Where do your customers pay? choose the Recaudo page or the gateway’s page.
  4. Turn it on

    Check the box to charge with that gateway. If you only want to test, also check Test mode (no real money). Click Save.
  5. Set up the webhook

    Under Technical details copy the Webhook URL and paste it in your gateway dashboard so Recaudo hears about every payment.

Review and pause your gateways

Under Your gateways you see each connected gateway with its status: Active, In review, Disabled or Demo.

  1. Check the status

    If something is missing, use See what’s missing or Set up on the gateway row.
  2. Pause or reactivate

    Use Disable or Enable. For Stripe the button is Disconnect Stripe.
  3. Check payment notices

    Under Advanced › Notification log you see the notices your gateway sends to Recaudo, useful when a payment didn’t show up.

Tip

The first active gateway you connect becomes the default automatically. If you connect more than one, use Payment rules to decide which one handles each payment.
