    Stripe Payment Integration

    Stripe is the primary payment processor for Lead Fuel CRM. Connecting Stripe enables you to accept payments through invoices, order forms, funnels, and membership products directly within the platform.

    Connecting Stripe

    Step 1:Navigate to Settings > Integrations > Stripe (or Settings > Payments).
    Step 2:Click "Connect Stripe."
    Step 3:Log in to your existing Stripe account or create a new one.
    Step 4:Authorize Lead Fuel CRM to process payments through your Stripe account.
    Step 5:Once connected, your Stripe account status shows as "Active."

    What Stripe Enables

    With Stripe connected, you can:

    • Accept credit card, debit card, and ACH payments from customers.
    • Create and send invoices with online payment links.
    • Sell products and services through order forms on your funnels.
    • Charge for course and membership access.
    • Set up recurring billing for subscriptions and retainers.
    • Process refunds directly from Lead Fuel CRM.

    Webhook Configuration

    Webhooks ensure real-time communication between Stripe and Lead Fuel CRM:

    • Webhooks are automatically configured when you connect your Stripe account.
    • They notify Lead Fuel CRM of payment events (successful charges, failed payments, refunds, subscription changes).
    • If webhooks need to be reconfigured, navigate to your Stripe Dashboard > Developers > Webhooks and verify the Lead Fuel CRM endpoint is active.

    Payment Security

    • All payment data is processed securely through Stripe's PCI-compliant infrastructure.
    • Lead Fuel CRM never stores credit card numbers or sensitive payment details directly.
    • Stripe handles all encryption, tokenization, and compliance requirements.
    • Customers see a secure, professional checkout experience.

    Testing Payments

    Before going live, test your payment setup:

    Step 1:Enable test mode in your Stripe integration settings.
    Step 2:Use Stripe's test card numbers to simulate transactions.
    Step 3:Verify that payments appear correctly in both Lead Fuel CRM and your Stripe dashboard.
    Step 4:Test refund processing to confirm it works as expected.
    Step 5:Disable test mode when you are ready to accept real payments.

    Tip: Review your Stripe dashboard regularly to monitor transaction fees, payout schedules, and any flagged payments. Understanding your payment processing costs helps you price your services accurately.
