I went to settings → integrations and then I clicked on connect to Stripe.

What do I do now ?

Connect your Stripe Account by going to the :

- Settings \> Integrations \> Connect with Stripe

Follow the process. When it is done, 5 bots variables (identical throughout all conversations) are created. We will need them later.

Build your chatbot then create your Stripe bubble. When you need to collect payment in your conversation flow, you can insert a Stripe Bubble.

You can now change the information necessary (amount requested, wording…).

If the connection worked well, you should have the variable “_ideta\_stripe\_publishable\_key_” available in the form.

Go to testing area and follow the process a client will do. Go until your Stripe bubble is displayed.

Go to the data manager and create a conversation object variable (different for every user and therefore different credit cards) “_ideta\_stripeCustomer_ ” with these properties 🙂

This object will be filled in **automatically** once the credit card is validated.

Now click on “see more” and add a background action 🙂

Enter the following information 🙂

Now, you need to do three things :  
Encode the “_ideta\_stripe\_access\_token_” variable in base 64 :

Then, you must create the payment intent 🙂

and catch it 🙂

That’s it ! You can now collect a credit card and collect a payment. They will both appear in your Stripe Dashboard.
