Description
Demfilz Payment Forms for Stripe lets you collect payments anywhere on your site with a single shortcode. Visitors fill in a clean, modern form and are taken to Stripe’s secure hosted checkout to enter their card details — no card data ever touches your server.
The form collects these standard fields:
- Name
- Phone
- Reference Number
- Message
- Amount

External services
This plugin connects to the Stripe payment platform to process payments. Stripe is a third-party service; using this plugin requires a Stripe account and agreement to Stripe’s terms.
What is sent and when: When a visitor submits the payment form, the plugin creates a Stripe Checkout Session by sending the entered amount, currency, name, email, phone, reference number and message to Stripe’s API (https://api.stripe.com). The visitor is then redirected to Stripe’s hosted checkout page to enter and submit their card details. When the visitor returns, and via a webhook from Stripe, the plugin asks Stripe for the payment status to record the result. Card numbers are entered on Stripe’s pages and are never sent to or stored on your site.

The plugin only contacts Stripe when an administrator has entered a Stripe API key and a visitor submits the form (or returns from checkout). No data is sent to any other external service.

Example:

Do I need the Stripe PHP SDK?
-
No. The plugin talks to the Stripe API directly over HTTPS, so there is nothing extra to install.
-
Is the webhook required?
-
It is strongly recommended — it is how payments are confirmed reliably. As a fallback, the success page also confirms the payment when the visitor returns from Stripe.
-
Where is card data handled?
-
Entirely on Stripe’s hosted checkout page. Your site never sees or stores card numbers.
-
Which currencies are supported?
-
Any currency your Stripe account supports. A selection of common currencies is available in the settings, and zero-decimal currencies (such as JPY) are handled correctly.
