Stripe Checkout Add-On for Concrete CMS
The Stripe Checkout add-on for Concrete CMS streamlines the process of accepting payments through your website, utilizing Stripe's secure and user-friendly checkout page. This solution is designed for simplicity, removing the complexities of custom payment gateway integrations while offering a wide range of payment options to your customers.
Key Features:

Important Considerations:
- Limited to Single Transactions: Designed for individual payments and does not support multiple products being purchased simultaneously.
- Product Management: Does not provide central product management or categorization; product details must be added directly to pages using Concrete CMS's blocks.
- Alternative Solutions: If your needs extend beyond single transactions to require a full shopping cart, consider exploring comprehensive solutions like the eCommerce with Snipcart add-on or the Community Store project.
This add-on is ideal for websites that require a straightforward method to receive payments for goods, services, donations, or event tickets, offering a professional and secure checkout experience without the complexity and costs associated with a full-fledged eCommerce system.
