This article explains how to enable Stripe integration with D-Tools Cloud. Stripe is one of the Payment Processing solutions supported on D-Tools Cloud; the others are CardConnect and ProPay.

If you're new to Stripe, learn more about Stripe from their website.

Check out this article to understand the scope of support offered by the D-Tools Support team for Stripe integration.

Stripe integration can be enabled only for businesses listed in the US.

Go to Integration > Manage Integrations under Settings. Scroll down to the Payment Integrations group.

1 - Click "Get started" in the Stripe integration tile. This will open a modal with the terms and the scope of the integration.

2 - Select "I understand the above" and then "Proceed". This will initiate Stripe integration with D-Tools Cloud.

3 - Enter the email associated with an existing Stripe account and click "Continue".

4 - Enter the password for the Stripe account and click "Log in". If you have enabled Google Authenticator or Security Key authentication, you'll be asked to enter the required details.

If you don't have a Stripe account and are creating it as part of the integration, you will need to go through the standard procedure from Stripe to create the account. This entails entering your business email in Step 3, setting up a password in step 4, and then completing the step-by-step onboarding to enter details such as the business location, SSN, bank account, tax calculation, and so on.

After you have enabled the integration with Stripe, do the following to configure the integration:

Click the "Settings" button in the Stripe integration tile and:

Click the 3-dot menu in the Stripe integration tile and click "Set as default payment integration". This is required only if you have enabled more than one payment integration.

This completes Stripe integration with D-Tools Cloud, and you're ready to collect deposits for your projects.

With the Stripe integration enabled by default as part of configuring the integration, the Integrations section appears for all Projects. This section will show Stripe as the Payment Processor, and your first payment term will be automatically selected in the 'Choose amount to collect' drop-down list.
