Payment Environment

Choose between "Live" or "Test" depending on whether you want to test payments or process real transactions in a production environment. 

Stripe Secret Key

To obtain your secret key, log in to your Stripe account, visit the developer dashboard, and then API keys. Select whether you want to generate a key for Test purposes or Live transactions. 

Copy the secret key and simply paste it into the Stripe Secret Key field.

Please note that if you generate a secret key for Test purposes it will start with the prefix "sk_test" and for Live transactions, the secret key will start with the prefix "sk_live". 

Stripe Webhook Signing Secret Key

To obtain the Webhook Secret in Stripe, please follow these steps:

• Access your Stripe dashboard.
• Navigate to the Developers Dashboard > Webhooks.
• Click on "+ Add Endpoint."

• Endpoint URL:  For the "Endpoint URL," you should configure your webhook endpoint as follows: 

https://www.yourDomain.com/index.php?option=com_easystore&task=payment.onPaymentNotify&type=stripe.

Replace "www.yourDomain.com" with your actual domain name.

• Select the specific events for which you want to receive notifications. However, you must select the "payment_intent.payment_failed", "checkout.session.completed", "payment_intent.partially_funded", "payment_intent.cancelled" events for smooth operation. 
• Click on Add Endpoint to save the webhook. Once saved, copy the webhook "Signing secret" and paste it into the Stripe Webhook Signing Secret Key field. 

Note: If you don’t want to create a webhook manually like shown above, simply click on "Press to Create Webhook URL" to set up a secure and functional integration of Stripe with your EasyStore.
