Can I accept payments through Stripe on the CMS plan of Webflow without using the ecommerce platform?
Yes, it is possible to accept payments through Stripe on the CMS plan of Webflow without using the ecommerce platform. Here is how you can set it up:
Create a Stripe account: Sign up for an account with Stripe if you don't already have one. Stripe is a payment gateway that allows you to securely process payments.
Connect Stripe to Webflow: In your Webflow project, go to Project Settings and navigate to the Integrations tab. Click on the "Connect Account" button next to Stripe and follow the prompts to connect your Stripe account to Webflow.
Add payment fields to your form: In the CMS Collections panel, add any necessary fields to collect payment information. This can include fields for credit card number, expiration date, CVV, and postal code.
Add a Custom Code embed: In the Designer, navigate to the page where you want the payment form to appear. Drag and drop a Custom Code embed element on the page.
Implement the Stripe payment form: Inside the Custom Code embed element, write your HTML and JavaScript code to create a Stripe payment form. You can refer to Stripe's documentation for guidance on how to implement this.
Test the payment form: Preview your site and test the payment form to ensure everything is working correctly. You can use Stripe's testing environment to simulate transactions and make sure payments are being processed as intended.
While this method allows you to accept payments through Stripe, it's important to note that it does not provide the full functionality of an ecommerce platform. You won't have features like inventory management, product listings, or order processing. It's best suited for simple payment forms or donations.
By following these steps, you can enable Stripe payments on your Webflow CMS plan without relying on the ecommerce platform.
