Where Stripe doesn’t take businesses in your country, Payments can’t sell for you. Your website can still take payments, through your own account at a payment provider that works there. Ted sets this up for you. You agree on the provider with him, then add its key.

​
Before you start

  • Only the owner or an admin can add the provider’s key.
  • You need an account at the provider. It can be one you already have. No account yet? Ted suggests a provider.

If something goes wrong

Stripe takes businesses in your country, so your website takes payments through Payments instead. See Get paid with Payments.

FAQ
