Connecting Stripe Payments
Set up Stripe to accept payments on your Sellr storefront.
Why Stripe?
Sellr uses Stripe to handle all payment processing. Stripe is a trusted, PCI-compliant payment platform used by millions of businesses worldwide. It supports credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and many local payment methods. Payments go directly to your Stripe account, so you are always in control of your funds.
Connecting your account
If you do not already have a Stripe account, one will be created for you during the onboarding process.
- 1Go to Dashboard then Settings then Payments.
- 2Click Connect Stripe.
- 3You will be redirected to Stripe's onboarding flow.
- 4Enter your business details, bank account, and identity verification.
- 5Once complete, you are redirected back to Sellr.
Tip: Make sure to use a real bank account and accurate business details. Stripe may hold payouts if your information does not match.
Test mode vs. live mode
During development, Sellr may run in test mode where no real charges are made. You can use Stripe's test card numbers (like 4242 4242 4242 4242) to simulate purchases. When you are ready to sell, make sure your Stripe account is fully activated for live payments.
When you get paid
After a buyer completes a purchase, the funds go to your Stripe account immediately (minus fees). Stripe then deposits the funds to your linked bank account on their standard rolling schedule, typically 2 business days in the US.
Transaction fees by plan
Sellr charges a small platform fee on each transaction in addition to Stripe's standard processing fee (2.9% + 30 cents). The platform fee depends on your Sellr plan: Free plan has a 5% fee, Pro plan ($19/mo) has a 3% fee, and Business plan ($39/mo) has a 2% fee.
