How to Add Stripe to an Online Store

January 3, 2025 SyAdmin Web Design & Development

How to find your Stripe API keys?

Prerequisites

  • An active Stripe account
  • Admin access to your website
  • Ensure you’re in Live Mode (not Test Mode) for real transactions

Step 1: Access Your Stripe Dashboard

  1. Log in to your Stripe account at dashboard.stripe.com
  2. Verify you’re viewing the correct account (especially if you have multiple)

Step 2: Locate API Keys Section

  1. Click on Developers in the left sidebar

  2. Select API keys from the dropdown menu

Step 3: Retrieve Your Keys

  • Publishable key: Used for client-side implementation

  • Secret key: Used for server-side integration (keep this private!)

  • Optionally create restricted keys for enhanced security

Step 4: Implement Keys in Your Website

  1. Copy each key carefully (they’re case-sensitive)

  2. Paste into your website’s payment gateway settings

  3. Test transactions in Test Mode before going live

Security Best Practices

  • Never share your secret key publicly

  • Rotate keys periodically

  • Use IP restrictions if available

  • Monitor API usage regularly
