Stripe and PayPal Payment Integrations That Convert
Hepek connects your store to the payment methods buyers already trust, so checkout is faster, safer, and ready for cross-border sales.
Buyers abandon carts when the payment step feels wrong
The last screen before a purchase is where the most revenue leaks. Shoppers drop off when their preferred method is missing, when a price shows in the wrong currency, or when a form asks for too much and inspires too little trust. A merchant selling into the USA, Germany, Switzerland, Sweden, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Qatar quickly discovers that a single payment method rarely serves them all: some regions lean on cards and wallets, others on PayPal for buyer confidence, and everyone expects to be charged in a familiar currency. Bolting on payments late, or wiring them up loosely, also creates a quieter problem: orders that say paid in the gateway but never update in the store, refunds that go untracked, and subscriptions that silently fail to renew.
Stripe and PayPal, integrated as one reliable checkout
Hepek integrates both Stripe and PayPal into your storefront so customers pick whatever they trust most without ever leaving your brand. Stripe handles cards, digital wallets like Apple Pay and Google Pay, subscriptions, and multi-currency pricing, with Radar scoring transactions for fraud in real time. PayPal adds the recognized buyer-trust button and Venmo for U.S. shoppers, letting people pay in a couple of taps. Card details are captured through Stripe's hosted, tokenized fields rather than touching your servers, which keeps your compliance footprint in the lighter SAQ-A tier. Behind the scenes, webhooks from both providers drive your order state, so paid, refunded, disputed, and renewed all stay accurate. The result is a checkout tuned for conversion and dependable enough to run an international catalogue on.
Så fungerar det
- 1
Map methods to your markets
We start with where you sell. Cards and wallets via Stripe cover the broad base; PayPal and Venmo capture trust-sensitive and U.S. shoppers. For customers in Europe, the Gulf, and the Balkans we confirm which methods and currencies matter most so the checkout feels local everywhere it appears.
- 2
Integrate Stripe with tokenized checkout
We connect Stripe using its hosted, tokenized payment fields, so sensitive card data is entered directly into Stripe and never lands on your servers. This keeps you in the SAQ-A compliance tier and enables cards, Apple Pay, and Google Pay in one flow.
- 3
Add PayPal and Venmo express checkout
We wire PayPal's express button into the cart and product pages, letting shoppers pay in a few taps with their existing PayPal balance or Venmo, no long guest form required. This lowers friction for first-time and international buyers.
- 4
Configure multi-currency and pricing
We set up presentment currencies so prices display and settle in what your customer expects, including USD, EUR, QAR, BAM (KM), CHF, and SEK, aligned to the USA, Europe, Qatar and the Gulf, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Germany, Switzerland, and Sweden.
- 5
Wire webhooks to order state
We subscribe to Stripe and PayPal webhooks and map every event to your order lifecycle: payment succeeded marks orders paid, refunds and disputes update automatically, and subscription renewals or failures trigger the right follow-up. No manual reconciliation.
- 6
Test, harden, and go live
We run sandbox and live-mode tests across methods and currencies, add fraud rules and 3D Secure where it helps, verify failure and retry paths, then launch with monitoring so you see issues before your customers do.
Teknik
Stripe
Handles cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay wallets, subscriptions and recurring billing, and multi-currency pricing. Hosted tokenized fields keep card data off your servers for lighter PCI SAQ-A scope, and Radar scores each transaction for fraud in real time, with 3D Secure available where it strengthens approval and protection.
PayPal
Adds a widely recognized buyer-trust checkout plus Venmo for U.S. shoppers. Express checkout lets customers pay in a few taps using details already on file, reducing friction for first-time and cross-border buyers who may hesitate to enter card details on a new store.
Fördelar
Higher checkout conversion
Offering the methods buyers already trust, cards, wallets, PayPal, and Venmo, plus one-tap express checkout, removes the friction and hesitation that cause cart abandonment at the final step.
Sell across borders in local currency
Multi-currency support means a shopper in Doha sees QAR, one in Sarajevo sees BAM (KM), and buyers in Germany, Switzerland, and Sweden see EUR, CHF, and SEK, so pricing never feels foreign.
Recurring revenue on autopilot
Stripe subscriptions handle plans, trials, proration, and automatic renewals, while webhooks keep your store aware of every successful charge, retry, and cancellation.
Security without the heavy compliance
Tokenized hosted fields keep card data off your infrastructure and in the SAQ-A tier, while Radar and optional 3D Secure defend against fraud so you carry less risk.
Orders that always match reality
Webhook-driven order state means paid, refunded, disputed, and renewed are reflected instantly and accurately, ending manual reconciliation and mismatched records.
One checkout, two providers
Stripe and PayPal live side by side in a single, on-brand checkout, giving customers choice without sending them off to disjointed third-party pages.
Vanliga frågor
Can I use both Stripe and PayPal at the same time?
Yes. Hepek integrates Stripe and PayPal together in one checkout, so customers choose their preferred method, cards and wallets through Stripe, or PayPal and Venmo, without leaving your store. Offering both typically captures more buyers than either alone.
Does adding Stripe and PayPal make my store PCI compliant?
It significantly reduces your burden. Because card details are entered through Stripe's hosted, tokenized fields and never touch your servers, you generally qualify for the lighter SAQ-A self-assessment. Hepek builds the integration to keep you in that tier; formal PCI attestation remains your responsibility, and we guide you through it.
Which currencies can Hepek support for international selling?
Stripe supports many presentment and settlement currencies. Hepek commonly configures USD, EUR, QAR, BAM (KM), CHF, and SEK for merchants selling across the USA, Europe, Qatar and the Gulf, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Germany, Switzerland, and Sweden, so prices display in what each shopper expects.
How are subscriptions and recurring payments handled?
Through Stripe's subscription billing. It manages plans, trials, proration, and automatic renewals, and Hepek wires the webhooks so your store reacts correctly to every renewal, failed charge, and cancellation, keeping customer access and records in sync.
What happens if a payment succeeds but my order status doesn't update?
That gap is exactly what webhooks prevent. Hepek subscribes to Stripe and PayPal events and maps them to your order lifecycle, so a successful payment marks the order paid automatically, and refunds, disputes, and renewals update without any manual step.
How does Hepek help protect against payment fraud?
Stripe Radar scores every transaction in real time using machine learning, and Hepek can add custom rules and 3D Secure where it improves approval and protection. Radar works because payments flow through Stripe's client-side tokenization, which the integration uses by default.
