To request new compatibilities or features, please consider hiring the developer of this plugin or another developer who can provide us with code enhancements for review. Paid premium support is also available for those looking for one-on-one help with their specific WordPress installation. Visit our website in the link above and contact us from there.
How does the Stripe Billing Portal work?
See Stripe’s description here: Stripe Billing Portal This is a developer-level feature and needs interface development. We may build this out a little in a future version of the plugin. The link is /ccom_stripe/v1/billing_portal?_wpnonce= and will redirect users to their account. You will need to include the WP REST Nonce in order to authenticate the user with the WordPress REST API. Obtain that using a method provided in the WordPress RSST API documentation such as wp_create_nonce( 'wp_rest' ).

How can I change the currency?
Currency is set-up within your WooCommerce > Settings area. Developers may logically switch currencies using the Woo core filter woocommerce_currency. It’s our expectation that the various Currency Switcher plugins are compatible with this.
Does this support discounts / coupons?
Yes, Stripe supports one coupon per order of percentage or fixed amount. This plugin will combine all coupons and negative fee line items into a Stripe coupon.
How is this plugin funded?
This plugin is funded by clients of Coded Commerce, LLC funding feature requests for development. When we develop useful code under GPL licensing we share it on our site as Code Snippets and in some cases package great features like these into free plugins so everybody can benefit, including the originating client via bug fixes and others’ funded feature requests. We also welcome donations via the “Donate to this plugin” button towards the bottom of the right sidebar on the WordPress.org plugin page.
