Introduction to the Stripe Payment Gateway Integration Template for WordPress
This template is designed to help you integrate a custom Stripe payment gateway into your WordPress site. It includes a backend service built with FastAPI, which handles the creation of Stripe checkout sessions and the retrieval of their statuses. The frontend code can be embedded into your WordPress payment page to allow users to make payments directly on your site. This solution is suitable for various payment setups, including one-time payments and subscriptions.
Getting Started with the Template
To begin using this template, click "Start with this Template" on the Lazy platform. This will set up the template in your Lazy Builder interface, ready for customization and deployment.
Initial Setup: Adding Environment Secrets
Before testing and deploying your app, you need to set up the required environment secrets. These are:
1. `STRIPE_SECRET_KEY`: Your Stripe secret API key, which you can find in your Stripe dashboard under Developers > API keys. 2. `YOUR_DOMAIN`: The domain where your WordPress site is hosted (e.g., https://www.yourwebsite.com).
To add these environment secrets in the Lazy Builder:
- Navigate to the Environment Secrets tab within the Lazy Builder. - Click on "Add Secret" and enter `STRIPE_SECRET_KEY` as the name and your Stripe secret API key as the value. - Add another secret with the name `YOUR_DOMAIN` and your website's domain as the value.
Test: Pressing the Test Button
Once you have added the environment secrets, press the "Test" button in the Lazy Builder. This will deploy your app and launch the Lazy CLI. If the app requires any user input, you will be prompted to provide it through the CLI.
Using the App
After testing, Lazy will provide you with a dedicated server link to use the API. This link is crucial for integrating the backend service with your WordPress site.
Integrating the App into WordPress
To integrate the backend service into your WordPress site, follow these steps:
1. Insert the provided frontend code into your WordPress payment page. You should place this script just before the `` tag in the HTML of your page.
2. Replace `"PUBLISHABLE STRIPE API KEY"` with your actual publishable API key from Stripe.
3. Replace `"LAZY SERVER LINK"` with the endpoint URL of your published app that you received after pressing the test button.
4. Replace `"PRICE_ID"` with the actual price ID you want to use for the transaction. You can find this in your Stripe dashboard under Products.
Here is the frontend code snippet you'll need to add to your WordPress page:

By following these steps, you will have successfully integrated a custom Stripe payment gateway into your WordPress site using the Lazy template. Your users will now be able to make secure payments directly on your site.
