About Easy Stripe
From the official readme · v1.2Description
Overview
Start accepting Credit Card payments with Stripe Checkout on your WordPress website in under 3 minutes. Created by an official Stripe Partner.
Watch this 1 minute video of how the checkout works:
Buttons
The plugin works by using buttons. Each button that you make will display a Stripe button on your site. The plugin lets you make as many Stripe buttons as you want, there are no limits.
The plugin adds a new icon above your WordPress editor. So when you edit (or make a new) page or post, you can click this icon and insert a Stripe button onto your page, in just one click. You also have the option of manually placing a shortcode on your page or post to display the Stripe button.
Each Stripe button is customizable, you can change the product description, price, if you want to collect a shipping address, and more.
Orders
View customer orders inside your WordPress admin dashboard. See the order total, customers shipping details, email address, Stripe transaction id, and more.
Emails
With built in email support, customers will get an email after purchase. As an admin, you can also choose to get an email whenever a sale is made.
Email can be customized and can include order variables such as amount, product description, order number, and more.
Refunds
No one likes refunds, but they are a part of doing business. Easy Stripe makes it very easy to issue a customer a refund. In your admin dashboard, just view an order, and with two clicks you can issue the customer a refund.
Reports
This plugin comes with beautiful built in graphical reports. See your sales overview for this month or year. View purchase by date and even by hour.
