Build better payment forms using new “embedded” Stripe Checkout

Stripe, a popular online payment processing platform, has recently introduced a new feature called “embedded” Stripe Checkout. This feature allows developers to embed the payment form directly on their website, creating a seamless and secure payment experience for customers.

With traditional payment forms, customers are often redirected to a separate payment page hosted by the payment processor. This can be clunky and disrupt the user experience. With embedded Stripe Checkout, the payment form appears directly on the website, allowing customers to complete their transaction without ever leaving the site.

Here are some benefits of using embedded Stripe Checkout:

• Improved user experience: Customers can complete their payment quickly and easily without being redirected to a separate payment page.
• Increased security: By keeping the payment form on your website, you reduce the risk of data breaches and ensure customer information is secure.
• Customization: You can customize the look and feel of the payment form to match your website’s branding, creating a seamless experience for customers.

To integrate embedded Stripe Checkout on your website, you’ll need to use the Stripe.js library and the Checkout client. Here’s an example of how you can set up an embedded payment form on your website:

<script src="https://js.stripe.com/v3/"></script>
<button id="checkout-button">Checkout</button>

<script>
var stripe = Stripe('YOUR_STRIPE_PUBLISHABLE_KEY');
var checkoutButton = document.getElementById('checkout-button');

checkoutButton.addEventListener('click', function() {
  stripe.redirectToCheckout({
    items: [{sku: 'sku_123', quantity: 1}],
    successUrl: 'https://yourwebsite.com/success',
    cancelUrl: 'https://yourwebsite.com/cancel'
  });
});
</script>

By using embedded Stripe Checkout, you can create a better payment experience for your customers and increase conversion rates on your website. Give it a try and see the difference it can make for your online business!
