Stripe Integration

Overview

Stripe is the most widely supported payment processor across ecommerce platforms. On Shopify, it powers Shopify Payments natively. On WooCommerce and BigCommerce, official plugins provide full Stripe Checkout with minimal configuration. Custom code is only required for headless storefronts — and even then, Stripe's hosted Checkout page and Elements components remove most of the complexity.

When to Use This Skill

• When adding Stripe as a payment processor to an existing store
• When setting up Stripe on a new WooCommerce or BigCommerce store
• When implementing SCA-compliant checkout for European customers
• When setting up webhook handlers for order fulfillment automation
• When building a custom or headless storefront that needs Stripe payment processing
