What do you mean by stripe interface
We have many hosted surfaces
Which one are you referring to specifically
wild dirge
which contains donation and payment options
rather that route a donor to another (stripe) website
so the donor can provide all the information necessary to make a donation and then submit with a single click
wild dirge
Thanks for responding so quickly, will take a look. Was hoping Stripe would produce the code that I would then embed into a webpage (via squarespace), kinda like embedding a YouTube video.

We don't have a donation component
This is something you need to build
You can embed a basic payment page

wild dirge
thanks, do you have any suggestions for another payment processor that might have a "donation" component?
wild dirge
Understand, thanks anyway
BTW ... when I question my AI friend Claude, Stripe appears as #1 option
limpid spire
Yeah many non profits use us
I'm just saying that there's not a embeddable component that 100% meets your use case that requires no code
You'd need to write a little code

We're early phase, taking the DIY approach for now

Hi 👋
I'm stepping in as my colleague needs to go.
taking the DIY approach for now
Just so I'm clear, since DIY generally refers to Do It Yourself, does this mean you attempting to control as much of the payment interface as possible? Or do you want Stripe to handle that for you?
wild dirge
Not about control, just ease-of-use for the donor.
And by DIY I mean cut-and-paste like you offer the website link
yes DIY = do it myself
tropic moss
Okay, to me that sounds like the opposite of DIY since you don't actual build something yourself
wild dirge
haha good catch
tropic moss
And when you say ease-of-use for the donor, do you mean the person providing the funds?
wild dirge
DIY in the sense that YouTube gives me that option
yes donor = person providing the funds
tropic moss
Well we have many ways to embed some payment UI in your own site. I believe my colleague already provided some options
If those do not suit your needs, can you explain the specific reasons why?
wild dirge
the conculsion was that I would need to develop the code
i found several nonprofit websites that use Stripe for donations, e.g. https://www.charitywater.org/
tropic moss
If you want to embed something into a site, you will need to do some coding
Also this server is intended to help developers code integrations with Stripe APIs so what is who we help
wild dirge
Stipe may not work for this. Understand that now ... thanks.
tropic moss
You can take a look at our embedded Checkout here. We provide examples of how you can code this solution.
But if you want something entirely no-code, you would need to be okay with redirecting your donors to a Stripe hosted page instead
wild dirge
Thanks for your help.

Happy to shed what 💡 I can 🙂
