Connecting Stripe to Loopit so you can receive payments from Customers.

You’ll first need to create a Stripe account for your business. Once set up, you will connect your Stripe account to Loopit.

(This Stripe account will be used to securely receive payments made by customers through their selected payment methods.)

What is Stripe?

Stripe is a global online payment processing platform that lets businesses accept payments (like credit and debit card transactions) securely over the internet. It handles things like authorising payments, processing charges, issuing refunds, and managing payment methods.

Why do we need to Connect Stripe to Loopit?

Loopit doesn’t process payments itself — instead it integrates directly with your Stripe account so your business can accept and manage customer payments (e.g., card payments) through the Loopit platform. Without connecting Stripe, Loopit can’t capture or record actual payments made by customers.
