My starting point was using WordPress for a feature on this site called “Book a call” with an expert. My issue was that Stripe is not entirely no-code friendly. If you are already using Typeform, Landbot form or something like that then, yes the integration is click of a button.Â
But what happens when you want to create something with WordPress or Webflow or Bubble?
Turns out Bubble has a really highly easy to use no-code Stripe plug-in. I do not know about Webflow, although I do know Ben Tossell uses it for Makerpad.Â
I do have significant experience, much more than I would like integrating Stripe with Word Press. I used two plugins. “WP Simple Pay” is what I currently use and recommend. It proved to be more reliable than “WP Full Stripe”. I found this out the hard way. While trying to integrate Stripe with Zapier to create my custom user flow, I needed the attribute for the transaction_description to pass from the plug in to Stripe. The problem after 3+ hours of testing was that it would only send the first time I set up the integration then failed every time after that. There was no other attribute I could use, so I tried WP Simple pay and it worked! So I recommend if you are using WordPress to use the WP Simple Pay plug in.

What’s the best Stripe plugin? When doing research with the Stripe API and talking to many other Makers, Bubble has a really good Stripe plug in that comes highly recommended. Especially if you are thinking about doing a three way transaction.
