💳 In-page implementation

Our Stripe CC integration allows you to load the credit card fields inside the checkout page for a frictionless experience.

The Credit Card fields are loaded directly from Stripe’s servers ensuring a secure connection between Stripe and the Customer. ( Checkout X doesn’t handle any card details )

🔒 3DS Secure

The Stripe CC integration leverages Stripe’s 3DS Engine by default, which means that all payments are compliant with European Directives.

The 3DS Secure screen is shown only when requested by the bank of the customer and it doesn’t bring any extra payment fees.
